I twiddled my fingers in the back of a taxi. I replayed the memory again and again. Him standing there with his toy koala. What was its name again? Kyle, Keith, Kenny! I got sweaty palms as the taxi stopped. I payed the cab and took a deep breath as I left the taxi. My feet nervously took me to the door. When I entered the penthouse, I was encountered by a tall red headed girl around my age.
"Hello. Are you Jessie Prescott?" I anxiously asked
"Um yes. Why?"
"I'm Dylan."
"Oh. He is upstairs. Want to see him?" She asked. I nodded and followed her into the elevator and into the apartment. It was bigger than my house and was full of expensive looking items. I was glad that Luke had somewhere better than before. Before I knew it, four kids and a adult ran down the stairs. One of the boys was Indian and was trying to calm down whatever was happening. The youngest was dark skinned and riding the elder man who seemed to be huffing. The tall blonde girl seemed angry and attacked the black haired boy. I looked closely to realise that he wasn't just a boy, he was Luke!
"Okay listen up guys." Yelled Jessie straightening the kids out.
"Zuri, don't use Bertram as a horse and Emma what have I told you about hitting your brother. Ravi good boy. Luke,come here. There is someone here for you."
The girls laughed. " Someone is here for Luke?" Luke stuck his tongue out then came down the stairs.
"Who are you?" He asked. I swallowed hard but my throat was still dry.
"I'm Dylan. I'm your brother."
He didn't even reply. He just stared at me. Then before I knew, he had his hands around my waist. I was shocked but it didn't stop me from hugging him back. My eyes welled up as he tightened himself to me. When we separated, I realised that he had been crying but I ignored the tear stains in my top. I saw Jessie wipe a tear from her eye and laughed. Luke laughed as well and wiped his eyes also.
"I never knew you were such a softy brother." Said Ravi.
"What! I'm not a softie. There must be some dust on his shirt." He sniffed.
"Dylan, if you want to stay, I could set up a bed for you." I nodded and stared at the brother who's face I had longed to see.
