The Fabio Story
A/N: Everyone, just so you aren't confused, Fabio is Numair's non-existant brother. But he exists now!
Chapter I:
"Numair!" yelled a high pitched voice from downstairs. Numair looked up from the email he was writing to Daine, and decided to see what his mother wanted.
"Numair, Fabio tells me that you wouldn't let him use the computer, is that correct?"
"Mom, Fabio was bothering me when I was emailing Daine!"
"That is no excuse to be mean to your little brother!"
"Mom, it isn't fair," Fabio whined, "Numair is always emailing his friends and he won't let me use the computer!"
"Numair, I have had enough of this!" his mother shouted. "You may not use the computer for a month."
"But Mom..."
"That's enough, or I will make it two months."
Numair stomped upstairs and slammed his bedroom door. Fabio walked into the room, smirking.
"Can I have the computer now. Please." Fabio 'asked.' Numair deleted his email and slammed the top of the laptop down. He shoved it into Fabio's hands, then pushed Fabio out of his room.
He would have to write to Daine the old fashioned way. He got out a piece of notebook paper and a mechanical pencil. He clicked it twice, but no lead came out. He rummaged through his desk and found a Bic pen. "Dear Dai..." he started to write. The pen ran out of ink. He scribbled at the top of the page, but no ink came out.
After searching his room entirely for half an hour, he could not find another writing utensil. "I give up!" he muttered to himself. He picked up his cellphone and dialed a number. "Hello, this is Numair. May I speak to Jon," he asked politely.
"Hello," said Jon's voice through the phone.
"Hi, this is Numair."
"Oh, hi. How's Daine doing?"
"I don't know; my mom took away my computer priveleges."
"What did you do this time, Numair?"
"Nothing. Really."
"Mhm. Yeah, I believe you," said Jon sarcastically.
"So the point is, can I borrow your computer? Please?"
"Well..."
"PLEASE?"
"You know..."
"PLEASE!"
" Ok. Fine. Whatever. But you can't stay at my house."
" Why not?"
"Because I said so. You can go to Panera. But don't spill water on it! One time, Aly spilled water on Alanna's computer and it took her a whole month to get it fixed."
"Ok. I won't. I promise. I will be over in ten minutes to get it."
