Part 1
What a perfect way to start the summer than watching your sister and best-friend get married to the man of her dreams? My sister has been looking forward to this day for quite sometime. I am so excited for her and the new life she is about to encounter with her very soon to be husband. To be honest I am a bit sad. I will be all alone in a house full of males with just my mother. I stopped the alarm before it went off due to the fact that I had beat it before it woke me.
“Where did she go this time?” I glanced around the room searching for my bride and she was not in her room, her room was a nice size maybe on after the wedding I can steal it before mom and dad make it into a guest room. My sister has to be the only bride in the history of brides to go on a scavenger hunt just hours before she says ” I do ” I quickly jump out of the bed and threw on an oversize shirt since I mainly dressed with limited clothe on for bed. I quickly brushed my teeth and splashed some water on my face before I made my way down the long flight of stairs in search for the missing bride.
“Mom have you seen Julia”,
I asked entering the kitchen to see all my brothers still at home including one of the groomsmen Marcus. I have always had this partial little crush on Marcus since the day I first met him but, I doubt he saw me as anything besides his sister’s friend. Sometimes he catches me looking at him and I would get embarrassed and looked away quickly praising the heavens that I had a somewhat darker complexion that hid the red that was coming from my cheeks. He would never speak on my staring which I greatly appreciated.
" No baby I have yet to see her this morning”
mom replied as she tapped the seat next to her signaling me to have a seat beside her as she played with my bed hair and I ate. I have long hair and to be honest I have no idea what I am going to do with it for today. All the boys spoke at once when Julia body shown through the door she broke into a smile saying hi to everyone she was in her running gear which meant she was out on a run again. She typically ran 3-5 miles a day I just figured since today was a big day she would just skip. I guess not.
Julia was the oldest of us all. The followed by Daniel, James, Chad, Luke and then me the baby. The boys didn’t normally argue with her as much as they did with me and that usually frustrated me because, I try and mind my own business and they always seem to get involved. Julia had dark hair like me while our bothers had a lighter brown color, We’re not really sure where the dark hair came from considering both our parents had lighter hair.
" I’ll go get a quick shower here and then we can head to the church to get everyone ready, Marcus you bring Athena later?” He nodded and turned to look at me offering me a warm smile. As the Maid of Honor and Best Man we had to stop on our way to the Church and grab the rings for the jewelers because, they were costumed made and was not ready when they needed to be. I made my way up the stairs and began my shower.
What am I going to do with this mop on top of my head?
