FRANK

I was up when Joe came in the house. I was laying in bed, and I looked at the clock. It read 1:25am. Where was he coming from at this time of night? I would have to ask him about it.

I looked at the clock again, it read 8:12am. I got out of bed, seeing I wasn't going to fall back asleep. When I went into Joe's room, he wasn't there. Joe was not an early riser, where was he? I went down to the kitchen and made oatmeal for breakfast. Just as the oatmeal was finishing up, Joe walked into the house, pretty sweaty.

"Did you go for a run this early?" I asked my brother.

"Yea, just a quick one around the block" He replied, "Did you make me some oatmeal?"

"Wow, Joe. Good for you and there's some here for you" I got him a bowl and we ate our oatmeal, "we're going bowling in a few hours. Anything you want to before then?"

"We could go to the mall!"

"Sure, it opens at nine so we have a little while"

"I'll go have a shower and then we can go!"

"Hey, why were you up at 1am this morning?" I asked.

"Oh, I couldn't sleep so I went for a little midnight walk. Sorry I woke you. I'm gonna go take a shower, I'll be ready back".

We had a good brothers day today. We ended up at the mall for close to two hours. Joe bought some shirts and a pair of shoes. Bowling was fun, for the first time ever, I beat Joe at it. That never happens. The movie we saw was a rerun of Jurassic World. It's one of my brothers all time favourite movies. He has probably seen it five times. But he acted like he had never seen it before which was weird. I tried to ask Joe what was going on with him though he never gave me an answer.

"Wow Frank! Thanks for the awesome day! What a good way to end the weekend!" Joe exclaimed as we stepped into the house.

"Yea Joe, it was a good day" I replied back.

"Oh! My boys are home!" I heard my mom's voice from the kitchen.

"Hey mom! How was your weekend away with dad?" I gave my mom a hug.

"We had an amazing weekend. Thanks again for the trip!"

"Hey mom! How are you?" Joe came and gave mom a huge hug.

"I'm good Joe" She laughed, giving me a funny look.

"Where's dad?" Joe asked

"Chief called on our way home. They needed to talk to him so I dropped him off at the police station on our way home".

"Do you know what it's about?" Frank piped up.

"No son. No idea"

"I'm pooped from our super fun day! Goodnight family" Joe exclaimed, hugging me and mom. He walked up the stairs.

"Frank, what's going on with Joe?" My mom asked as soon as Joe was upstairs.

"You notice it too? I really don't know, but he's really starting to freak me out…"

JOE

I was finally left alone. I didn't know where Maurice or Tom was but I really didn't care. I was trying to keep calm and not give up, but it was slowly getting to me. I was going to die in this basement, and no one would know. Frank would never find out. I don't know how he didn't realize that his brother wasn't really his brother, I guess the guy was such a good actor. Tears started streaming down my face as I began to panic. I needed to get out of here, before it was too late.

"Joe, calm down" I whispered to myself, "Don't give up, you can not give up". I had to believe that Frank would figure this out or someone would. Why didn't someone figure it out? That the Joe people kept hanging out wasn't actually Joe! My brother hasn't even noticed. I began to hyperventilate, which killed my ribs. God, was I ever a mess….
