11: Halloween

J A K E' S   P A R E N T S  left home early on the thirty-first of October, ahead of the Oktoberfest event that was about to start in a couple of hours.

Having fallen asleep on the desk, Jake awoke with a start and found the book resting on his spread out arms, with the last page being open.

He had gone through the entire book and was then getting a pretty stiff neck.

He leaned back in his chair before turning to his phone and checking the time.

07:12

Closing the book, Jake walked up to the door and opened it after which he headed towards the kitchen and passed by his brother.

He waited for Ryan to step on him. He didn't, which was really weird. His brother never screwed up such an opportunity to torment him.

"Ryan," he called.

Jake watched as his brother stopped, facing the other way.
