"Mom," Kate Baker felt a small tug on her skirt and looked down. There was Sarah, with her pigtails and big brown doe eyes staring at her from behind her red and white baseball cap. "Wes Jay?"
Her heart broke. Today was Jake's first day of school, but they didn't know how to tell Sarah. Sarah on the other hand, had no idea what had happened. She had woken up as usual at nine, then brushed her teeth, her hair and changed from her pj's to jean shorts and a striped red and white t-shirt. Then she had bounced over to Jake's room to wake him up, but when she got there the bed was empty.
"Oh Sweetie..."
-Time skip- about 8 hrs
Sarah had fallen asleep waiting for Jake on the steps of the house, but as soon as she heard the familiar roar of the car, she woke up. She rubbed her eyes furiously with her fists and stood up waiting for her brother. Jake stepped down from the car and Sarah's eyes lit up. She ran towards him, but stumbled on rocks when she was almost there. Jake hadn't been expecting her and she fell on him. She hugged him and Jake laughing, returned the hug.
"Get up Butch" a naggy voice interrupted the hug. Sarah, overjoyed at seeing her brother again (it was their longest time apart) merely stuck out her tongue.
