"Mal! Please just stop crying," Carlos cried out as he tried to sleep, but all he heard was screaming and crying from his newborn sister. Carlos had finished taking Mal out and exploring a few hours ago and he was now trying to get some sleep as he had his first new day of school in the morning, but Mal wouldn't stop crying and Carlos didn't know what to do.

Jay still wasn't home yet and Carlos was only twelve he had no clue how to take care of a newborn. Normally his mom and dad would take care of her and if they were busy like they had been lately then Ava would.

"Ugh I miss Ava," Carlos told himself out loud as he grabbed his phone deciding to see if his big sister would answer and tell him what to do as she always knew how to make him feel better when he was upset.

Carlos sighed when the phone went to voicemail as he tried calling a few more times, but got the same result. "Ugh! Ava I need help! I don't know how to do this!" The young twelve year old screamed out as he slammed his phone down and then carefully got out of his bed and made his way over to the bassinet with his sobbing newborn sister.

"Okay Mally hey it's okay. Um, do you want a bottle or something?" Carlos nervously told his newborn sister as he picked her up and then filled up a bottle with formula and tried to feed her, but she pushed it away again.

"Mal come on you have to eat! According to this website I found newborns need to eat like 8 to 12 times per day and you have only eaten like 4 times today!" Carlos cried out as he continued to try and force the newborn to eat, but she just kept pushing it away with her tongue.

Carlos just sighed when he realized that Mal wasn't going to eat as he didn't know what to do. "Fine I guess you just won't eat then. I don't get what else you could possibly need," Carlos screamed out in frustration until he realized what else babies need as he looked at his sister in horror.

"Oh no! Please tell me you don't need…" Carlos told his sister, but got interrupted when he realized she was wet and did need a change and he had no clue how to do that plus it was disgusting.

Carlos just sighed as he picked up his sister in disgust as he began to change her despite having no clue how to do it. "Well at least it wasn't that gross," Carlos said out loud as it had only been pee.

When Carlos finished changing her he just grabbed a random newborn outfit and placed his sister in it as he then laid her down in the bassinet to sleep again, but the tiny baby started screaming yet again making Carlos start crying in frustration as he couldn't stand all the crying.

"Ugh what do you want now! I don't know what you want! You're not hungry! I just changed you! What! What do you need! I just want to sleep," Carlos cried out as he was so tired, but his sister wouldn't stop screaming no matter what he did. And he was a just kid. Normally when Mal cried like this he could just hand her off to their parents or even Ava and then walk away and play video games, but he was the only one here right now and so he can't just do that.

Carlos sighed in relief when finally after about two or three hours he finally got his sister to sleep as he got into his bed about to finally get some sleep as he closed his eyes and was almost out when the door barged open immediately startling him and waking the newborn making her start sobbing again.

"Ugh! You have got to be kidding me! Just when I had her sleeping!" The twelve year old screamed out in frustration as his cousin just barged in and un did all the hard work he did getting Mal to sleep.

"Sorry! I keep forgetting that I'm not living alone right now," Jay told Carlos still in a loud voice making Carlos even more upset. "Yeah well I just got her sleeping and now she is awake again! Do you know how hard it is to get a newborn to sleep!" Carlos cried out and his older cousin just sighed as he looked at him.

"I said I was sorry, calm down! Gosh you're like 10 and you already are this stressed out in life! I don't even want to think about how bad it's going to be when your a teenager," Jay told Carlos who rolled his eyes. "I'm 12 not 10! And this is on you! You left me alone with a newborn!" Carlos screamed out making Jay sigh as he realized Carlos was right.

"Okay I'm sorry. If it helps I can stay up with her and you can sleep," Jay told Carlos who just nodded. "Yeah that actually does sound good," the young twelve year old told the seventeen year old as he finally was able to close his eyes and drift into sleep, but he woke up extremely early the next morning by sobbing again.

"Ugh! Mal why?" Carlos whined out as he forced himself out of bed and picked up the screaming newborn as he grabbed a pacifier trying to soothe her and she instantly stopped crying once he did that. That's good to know Carlos thought as he placed the newborn into her bouncer and started getting himself ready for school as Jay was already out again meaning that Carlos had to take the newborn with him to school which he knew was going to be bad, but he had no choice.

Once Carlos finished getting himself ready he just picked up the calm newborn and winced as he was expecting her to scream again, but to his relief she didn't scream or cry as she was content with her pacifier making Carlos smile in relief as he changed her again and placed her in a purple onesie.

He then grabbed some diapers and a bottle as he just quickly shoved them into his backpack like all the other school supplies as he was pretty sure that was all he would need for her.

And he was too tired to bother looking stuff up and doing research on baby needs. He then grabbed a baby carrier and placed it on himself as he placed Mal inside and then made his way to his first class of the day already knowing that it was going to be a disaster.
