SOTMH : Chapter 4

Calvin MacMillan

When the following morning arrived, the house is already noisy with yells, exclaims, and squeals. I groan from my bed and stretch my joints, making them loosen up from being stiff.

I got off of my bed and there I notice that I didn't change into my sleeping clothes just like I planned instead, I slept in my bathrobe. Me being a lazy brat didn't bother to change and went downstairs towards the commotion.

As I arrive at the kitchen, I immediately saw my parents. Mom cooking breakfast and by the smell of it, she's making pancakes. Her husband, my father is reading something on his iPad on the table with feet resting on it.

My dad notices me first when I was near. He brought down his iPad and walk towards me. He is just wearing boxers since during early in the morning, maids and housekeepers are not here yet, they would only appear during lunch up to dinner.

"Morning baby!" He greets, walking to me and engulfing me in his strong yet firm hug. I return the gesture and hug back, wrapping my arms on his bare waist.

"Morning dad," I replied, not the same cheerfulness though because I'm getting flustered. I can feel his bulge touching my covered chest since The CEO of MacMillan Corp. is never small.

We parted and he kisses my forehead then pulls me towards the table. He sat on his chair and I sat beside him. He pulls me closer to his bare chest making me lean down before putting his iPad in front of me to continue his work.

"OMG! Good morning sweetie" I heard my mom greeted me. I was about to turn to her when I heard a girly squeal. I went to my mother and hug her quickly before going to the source of the voice.

I was led to the living room and there I saw my sister, talking animatedly at the person she's talking to on her phone. I walk towards her from behind making the person on the phone notice my presence first.

"Oh, hi Cal!" I look at the phone for a couple of seconds, processing the face in my head if I saw her somewhere. I got a fuck up head so don't scold me. As I scan her, I saw a glimpse of her hands and saw a silver ring, just like the one I have before. Spotting this, she finally clicked in my head.

"O-oh hi Sofie. I forgot what you looked like." I told her honestly. She looked at me shocked, her hand on her chest, acting hurt.

"You forgot your beautiful cousin!? I can't accept this! The last we met was just last Christmas, not 10 years ago!" She exclaimed, fanning her already obvious face full of makeup.

"Oh please, you know I have a fuck up brain but still smarter than you, though. So, don't be a drama queen" I told her, rolling my eyes at her.

"You need something to get that head of yours to function properly. What if you can't remember your husband in the future!?" He questioned. I groan. Does this girl ever stop? I thought.

"Shut up you idiot! If my brain can still compute one plus one then I'm good to go!" He stated. When I look down, I saw Anna fighting off her laugh and the same for Sofie. Idiot besties! "Where's your brother by the way?" I asked Sofie after she's done laughing her ass off.

"Sleepin--oh wait, let's wake him up!" She decided excitedly, moving swiftly, I think out of her bed.

"I don't think that's a good idea Sof. You know your brother, he's not a morning person" I warned him, not liking the idea of waking up the beast. Oh dear, there would be war. I thought.

"Don't be silly. This is going to be fun!" She said back and I sighed.

"Up to you"

We both saw our cousin went out of her room and walking straight towards her brother's. She opened the door a little bit and peeked inside.

A few seconds later, she looked at her phone and gave a thumbs up, grinning evilly. Sneaking inside, she shifts her camera from front to back, showing us the sleeping man under the gray duvet. He is sleeping on his chest; his upper back is exposed showing us his muscular figure.

The brother's evil sister puts her phone on some kind of flat surface, a table I guess, and positions it until we can properly see the hibernating human.

Sofie disappears after and we heard a door open and a gush of water. Oh dear, I thought. Anna and I looked at each other nervously and scared, not for ourselves but our woman of a cousin.

Our attention went back to the phone when we saw her coming appearing. She is holding a wet stainless-steel basin filled with water.

"Ready?" Sofie mouthed to us. I raise my hand, poking out my index finger and make a horizontal line on my neck and point it to her.

'You're going to die'

Sof just shrugs her shoulder and faces his brother. She raises the basin and;

Splash!

"Ahhh!" Her brother jolts up, screaming. He squirms out of his now wet bed and rubs his face. He is only wearing black briefs. Why does everybody like to wear briefs and not boxer shorts? "What the FUCK Sofie!?" He roared when he turned around and saw her sister laughing her ass off.

"You look like a suffocated worm!" Sofie exclaimed loudly, holding her stomach. I and my sister on the other end look at her weirdly. How the fuck does she know what a suffocated worm looks like?

"You bitch! Look what you've done to my bed!" The brother growled, storming towards his sister and grabbing her by the shoulders.

"Ow ow ow! Ok ok! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

"Where am I going to sleep now!?" He asked her in the face.

"That's your problem, not mine idiot!" She replied, not taking him seriously.

"Why you li---!"

"Axel, you're going to make her deaf if you keep shouting" I interrupted. He turns his head to where my voice came from until his gaze landed on us. Does he immediately lets go of Sofie, and stride towards the standing phone where he could see us.

"She fucking brought audiences huh? And you two supported this?" Axel, The Escort, and The Captain of the Football Team.

"We warned him but she didn't listen to us." My sister stated, but it seems that Axel is not paying attention because his gaze is not towards her, but me. The stare made me slightly uncomfortable. Is there anything wrong with my face? Am I turning ugly?! I thought. Okay, now I'm exaggerating.

"Hey bitch, move the fuck up!" Sofie suddenly said from behind Axel, pushing him to the side and that made Axel itself went back to reality like he's deep in thought.

"I-uh, um--would just go to the bathroom to shower. Anna, see you soon. Cal you too, bye!" He said with a stutter in the first words before turning around, walking towards the bathroom, quickly.

My sister and Sofie began gossiping something about a hot guy on the internet, but my attention isn't on them but, on my cousin's brother.

Weird.
