She pulls back and smiles at me. Ive missed you too, kiddo. She stroke my cheek. Hey, youve cut your hair! She adds.

I nod And dyed it. Do you like?

Yea, it looks very cool! She smiles at me, and I think she actually means it.

I know Clara was up to something when she yelled at me to come in so fast, but right now I dont care. Its nice to be back again, Ive missed everyone so much.

I have a surprise for you downstairs. I tell my baby sister and she lights up.

Lets go! She says and hurry down the stairs. I look around her room and realize how empty it looks. I bend down and check under her bed to see almost all of her stuff under there. I chuckle for myself before I walk downstairs.

I see mom Bette and Clara inspect the painting I brought home from Paris. Mom Tina sits on a chair and is watching them amused. Clara has gotten Bettes interest for art, something Ive never understood. Art just isnt my thing. I have a more laid-back attitude about art, kinda like mommy Tina. I mean I can watch art, but I dont have the same passion for it as mommy Bette and Clara do. Clara doesnt just have an eye for art, shes a great artist too. Her paintings are fabulous and I know both Bette and Tina are really proud of her, since her paintings are hanging on the walls all around the house. But Im not jealous, Ive actually got a few of her paintings on the walls in my apartment in San Francisco too. And when I tell some of my friends that my 13 years old sister has made them they have a hard time to believe it, Im really proud of her.

But I dont think shes been painting much at all lately, or at least thats what mommy Tina has told me when I have talked to her. I dont know why, maybe its cause she has no inspiration, or she just need to take a break from it. I told mommy Tina not to push her, cause thats what they did to me and look what a pain in the ***** I was.
