"Daniel, rise and shine! Come on, wake up!"
I rubbed at my eyes.
God, so sleepy.
"Mom, I am so tired."
I rolled in my blanket, refusing to get up.
"Awwww come on. You don't want to be late on your first day!"
I frowned with my eyes still closed tightly.
First day...?
But my first day was yesterday. What was Mom talking about?
"Come onnnnn."
Mom pulled at my arm. She then put a hand across my forehead. "Unless you are sick? Do you not feel well?"
"I am fine, Mom..."
"Then go take a shower! We must leave before eight!"
Mom went out of my bedroom. I climbed off my bed and found neatly folded clothes at the end of my bed.
I took them and dragged my feet to the bathroom.
Alas, Jaden was still inside.
"Jaden...!" I called. "Quickly come out, I still need to take a shower!"
A muffled cry sounded from inside the bathroom, telling me that my brother heard me.
He only heard me, but he was not coming out at all.
