Startled, he almost fell on the floor.
"Why are you jumpy?" Jewel frowned at him. "Did you do something forbidden?" She wiggled her brows at him.
"What do you mean by something forbidden? I'm going to my room!" Before Jewel can say something else, he was already halfway towards his room.
"He undeniably is acting strange." Jewel mussed as she watched him leave.
To her, it was fun watching her brother act nervous.
"Well, it's none of my business. I better head over to work now." She turned and headed downstairs. "Mom, dad, I'm leaving for work!"
"Good luck, dear."
"Fighting!" Her mother called after her.
"Bye!" Jewel hurried out of the house and headed straight to the car her parents bought for her on her sixteenth birthday.
