Chapter Five
"Mom, I'm home." Called out Johnny as he removed his shoes and placed them in the shoe cupboard.
"Back so soon? I thought you're going to hang out with Kai and the others." Said Mrs. McGregor in surprise. She knew her son would always go out with his friends and comes back late at night.
"Yeah but I had to walk our new neighbor back to her house. She was being bothered by a bunch of losers just now in the park." Said Johnny. He could feel his blood boiling at the incident. Artemis had looked so helpless when she faced them.
"Who? Which neighbor? If it's that stuck up woman then it serves her right." Said Mrs. McGregor grimly. She was insulted at the way Lady Jones treated her this morning.
"Eh? Artemis is not stuck up. She's gentle and very polite." Said Johnny. Was Artemis rude to his mother this morning? Impossible, she's gentle, polite, kind, lady like and most of all, she's mute!
"Artemis? I was talking about Lady Jones. Oh, you mean the young lady. Pretty little thing isn't she? Same like our little Jenny." She smiled fondly as her gaze landed on a girl that was coming out of the study room.
Jennifer McGregor had long auburn hair with gold streaks and large lavender eyes. She's the pretty female version of Johnny but unlike her tall, masculine brother she was petite and delicate looking. She's fifteen and I forgot to mention Johnny is twenty-two and so are the other three guys.
"Hey squirt, miss me?" Johnny smiled and bent down to hug his baby sister who giggled silently as he did that. She was left dumb and slightly deaf after a raging fever narrowly damaged her brain when she was five years old. All the brain specialists and shook their heads in defeat stating there was nothing they could do to change it.
Jennifer clung on to Johnny as he lifted her up in bridal style to the dinning room. She was quite lazy when it comes to walking about in the large house of theirs. Johnny spoilt her rotten with him always carrying her anywhere she dictated even though she's capable of walking.
"Come on children, dinner is served. Wash your hands before you start." Called out Mrs. McGregor.
"What are we having tonight mom?" asked Johnny curiously. Delicious smells from the kitchen was making his mouth water in anticipation.
"We're having potato salad for starters, steaks and baked potatoes for main course and chocolate pudding for dessert." Answered Mrs. McGregor happily. Johnny wasn't very happy when he heard chocolate pudding, he hates chocolate; on the other hand Jenny was delighted as she loved chocolate.
