Growing Pains

? Adrian's POV? I stepped down from the plane, I knew immediately that my life is going to change for the better. My chest tightened as I smelled the not too familiar air of New York after 11 years of leaving home. I tightened my grip on my bag and continued walking to see the familiar face that will welcome me back home. I know my family will miss me... I mean why won't they, it's been 11 years but I'm certain not all of them will. As I walked, I heard the sweetest voice I missed calling my name."Adrian", I recognized the voice immediately and smiled. I turned my head to the direction of the voice and I saw him, my twin, Aiden. He is taller than I am with black hair and blue eyes like mine. He was wearing a green shirt and a pair of black trousers with a pair of black shoes. His smile was so heart warming and welcome. I had to walk faster because I can't wait to hug my crazy twin brother whom I misse

? Adrian's POV ?Seeing the painting on Dad's table brought tears to my eyes but I quickly pushed it back because I know I'm not a coward and I don't want to look vulnerable. I can't forgive him easily.Aiden looked at me when he heard me sniff and mouthed "what's wrong?""Nothing", I replied and he nodded.Dad turned to look at us and began. "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. I had to check those documents."I rolled my eyes because I don't get why I should care about him checking the company's paper work."Aiden, I want you to brief Adrian about the school and tell her all she needs to bring along. I won't really have a free time again this week that's why I called you today. I want you to guide your sister well and take good care of her.""No need to tell me Dad, I will take care of Adrie just like an older brother should", Aiden said and poked me to make me laugh and I did."Okay", Dad said and

Location: McGregory high school? Aiden's POV ?"Aiden", Adam called me."What's up?", I asked."You said you had a problem to deal with this morning.""Ohh. That. It's nothing serious. My sister came back yesterday and-""What? Your sister? You mean your twin sister?", he asked shocked."Adam, calm down and stop shouting. You are too nosy", Anthony said."Dude, didn't you hear? He said his twin sister is back.""And?", Anthony said. "I hope you are not thinking what I think you are thinking?""You better don't move anywhere near my sister because I know you", I said glaring."Calm down dude. I won't touch your sister without your permission", Adam said smirking. "But at least show us a picture.""I can't show you. Wait till Monday. Today is Friday so just have a little bit of patience", I said."Okay. If you say so", Adam said sounding def

? Adrian's POV ?This is surprising. I know Aiden's friends. The first guy I saw was the guy I met at the mall and the second guy was the one I met at the cemetery. I was really surprised."Adrian, you've met my friends before?", Aiden asked."This is the guy I met at the mall", I said pointing to the guy. "And this is the guy I met at the cemetery", I said pointing at the second guy."Is this your sister?", the guy I met at the mall said looking at me angrily."Yes. Adrian this is Anthony, my friend", Aiden introduced him. "And this is Adam, my other friend.""Hi, I'm Adrian", I said and smiled sheepishly at Anthony but he looked like he is gonna kill me anytime soon. "Adam, I'm Adrian. It's nice to see you again.""The pleasure is mine", Adam said and kissed the back of my hands."Ugh... Can we just go now?", Anthony said obviously annoyed."But I don't see anyone holding you", I said raisin

? Adrian's POV ?I woke up feeling a heavy hand on me. I opened my eyes and saw Aiden sleeping peacefully beside me. He was very handsome even with his messy hair falling on his face. Then I remembered when Mum came into the room yesterday, she was worried. I pushed the thought to the back of my mind and woke Aiden."Aid", I called shaking him gently. "Wake up.

What's that for?", he said jumping out of bed."It's for you to wake up out of your sleep and get ready for school", I said
