I don't own modern family , hope you enjoy.

It's a typical day at the Dunphy house. In other words, it was insane with Claire and phil winning a spontaneous trip to Paris for 3 days and not being able to sleep all night so they could sleep in the plane and Luke on a ski trip which leaves out haley who still didn't return home from last night and alex who was still finishing her report.

It is Friday noon in the Dunphy household and Phil is just finish packing up the bags and informing the kids , he rub his eyes and yawn. seeing the hour and it was past 11 o'clock , he carried claire on his shoulders , she was was so sleepy that she slept on the couch without noticing and with that they were set to go as phil kissed alex on her forehead and told her to take care as she was still holding her computer trying to finish the report that is due later this month.

At about 1Pm , andy dropped haley , before The young brunette entered the house.

Haley read the whats app message from Luke :

Luke : Haley , pick me up at 5, DON'T FORGET

Haley : okay fine

" Alex , where is mom " haley paused " never mind " as she checked the message that was left by her father.

" if only you start using your brain as much as you use your phone , you would not be living like that " Alex said.

" I HEARD YOU " haley stated yelling as she went stright t to the basement so she could get some rest after a long night with andy.

In Cam and Mitchell hosehold.

" daddy , I am bored " lily stated as she entered Mitchell and cam's room

" I know sweetie , but daddies are talking about what we are going to wear tonight and that's a difficult conversation " Cam responded.

" lily what do you think this one or this " Mitchell asked but all lily could see was 2 black pants.

" I don't think i am really that bored " lily responded , rolling her eyes as she went out of the room.

Mitchell and cam were going to a party organised by Mitchell's and Cam's frenemies Steven and Stefan as they always try to look better than them or do the things they said they wanted to do before them but this time cam and mitchell wanted to be better than for once

After about 2 hours.

" what do you think , lily "

" I think that i must congratulate you on finally deciding what to wear " lily responded , sarcastically but cam didn't pay any attention as he was distracted by mitchell outfit

" wait you will wear this " cam pointed out as he finally sow what mitchell picked out.

" ya "

" no , no , no " cam said as he shake his head and guide mitchell to the closet.

" we are never going to leave the house " lily answer as she lay on the couch.

In the Pritchett household.

" Jay , jay , jaaaay " gloria yelled from the kitchen.

" What ! " jay yelled back then he took a long breath and then said " i am in the living Room "

gloria walked to the living room as she asked " GO pick up manny there flight was cut short "

" I can't " jay stated.

" ohh jay , I forgot " gloria remembered.

when manny wanted his skateboard for the ski trip , he asked jay to bring them from the storage room as he wanted to bring them down, they fall on him casing him to fall down and hurt his back but that wasn't why jay didn't want to go pick up manny , it is because he wanted gloria out of the house so he could watch the game in peace.

5 pm in the dunphy household.

Alex POV :

I was sitting in the dinning table talking to Sanjay ,who is now my boyfriend, through Skype with my laptop as i just finished the report.

" Billions of neutrinos penetrate you every second , I miss you " I said

"Baby, my cardiovascular system gets all worked up because i miss you too " Sanjay Stated as i chuckle.

" you two are like a human sleeping pell " haley stated with a sarcastic tone as she just walked inside the dinning room.

" couldn't you be normal and say I miss you only "

" weren't you supposed to be sleeping " I asked and without saying goodbye to Sanjay I closed the laptop.

" No , i don't feel like it and beside i feel like i forgot something but i can't remember what " Haley answered.

" Never mind " haley continued.

" I don't know about you but- " I paused as i heard the doorbell ring.

" we have a doorbell " Haley stated as the family usually just barge inside without ringing any bell.

" maybe they finally knew something called privacy " I said as i went to the door to open it expecting lily as i was supposed to babysit her today.

I opened the door seeing a 10 or 11 year old girl with short brown hair and big blue eyes wearing a school uniform outfit with black backpack.

" Hello ... so you are entering , okay " I said , awkwardly as the girl walk past me and went inside the house.

" Who is this " haley asked as she lift her body and turned to the door to see the girl barge inside.

" didn't your parent teach you to not go into strangers houses " I said as the girl went and sat on the couch.

" My name is Riley and i am looking for claire dunphy " The girl spoke cheerfully as she sat in an elegant way as she smooth the skirt under her and angle her feet with placing her hands on her lap making haley look like a child as haley was laying on the couch with her legs on the coffee table.

" who are you and why are you asking about my mother " haley asked Riley as i left the door open and went and sat beside haley.

" claire is my mom " Riley replied. as she paused " my genetic mother to be specific "

Haley and i looked at each other as we were terrified of what we just heard.

first we thought it was a sick joke but after 10 minute passing and the girl insisting that she is our genetic sister.

" But how and why would mom do this and give u up , i mean she is so protective " i asked as we were both still shocked.

" that is impossible , how old are you 11 , 10 i know my mom didn't get pregnant " haley replied.

" maybe mom made an egg donation so that is how she is her genetic daughter , but why would she do that " I explained to haley.

" wait , how do we know she is telling the truth " haley said and i nodded in agreement as we sow the girl.

" My brother told me you would say that , so here you go " Riley handed us papers which she got out from her backpack as we were searching in these paper for a proof or a sign not noticing she left the couch.

" this is a alot of papers , Alex read and tell then summarise what it says " haley stated as she took her eyes of the papers to see that the girl gone.

" where is she " haley said terrified.

" here " riley answered as she was looking at the pictures of the family on the stairway.

" so is this claire " Riley asked as she pointed to a blonde women in the picture

" ya and this is dad ... i mean phil and there is Luke and , oh Ya I almost forgot , I am haley and this is alex " haley introduce everyone pointing at the pictures as she walked near Riley in the staircase.

As I continue reading the papers

" Haley you must check this , it says that mom gave her eggs for scientific study about 26 years ago and then on the hand written paper here it says it was frozen until it was used in 2005 but it was never signed by mom or even informed so maybe mom never knew about them being harvest "

" English ? "

" mom never knew about riley , she was never informed and she gave it so it wouldn't be used " I paused as i sow haley shin almost fall down then i continued " she is our genetic sister "

" who's your sister " A voice came from the door as we turned and it was uncle mitchell with cam and lily by his side.
