Julie is Eric's sister who married a doctor named Hank Hastings no more than 5 years ago. A year after they got married, they had a daughter, Erica, named after Eric and Annie. I think it was a year or two later they have a son, who's name we don't know.

Yes, Simon was home that week because he hurt his ribs.


Sam asks as he looks at his sister who has a stunned look on her face, "What?"

"What's wrong?" His brother asked as they had stopped playing when Ruthie yelled. They saw their sister on the verge of tears.

Ruthie turned off the TV, tosses the remote on the couch then ran upstairs with Drew trailing behind.

"Drew will make her feel better." David's brother replied then they went back to playing their game as they heard a door slam.

Drew was just outside of Ruthie's door.

In Ruthie's room

"I don't believe it. It's got to be a mistake, maybe he didn't die or his parents," She was laying in her bed, face on her pillow as she began to cry.

The lights were on since it was a clear dark moonless sky when she got up a few minutes later in a rage and began trashing her room. She made a sweeping motion as everything on her desk fell to the floor; she heard the dog barking, trudging to her bed then plopped on it and began to cry herself to sleep.

While Ruthie was in a temper tantrum and crying herself to sleep, the twins were getting in trouble with Drew watching them. Sam and David had moved the chair in the bedroom to the dresser where Annie keeps her bras and underwear. They had taken everything out as well as pulled out Eric's ties that were in the walk in closet, and they saw his bag that held his lap top computer near the dresser but left it alone for now.

"Look, I got mommy's bra." Sam says as he puts his arms through the spaghetti strap and his brother tied a knot on the back of the strap.

"Look, I got daddy's tie." His brother said putting the tie around his neck while his brother tied it.

They boys brought the chair in the bathroom where they saw Annie's make up bag and Eric's shaving bag. They took out some mascara, putting it on their eyebrows, took some eyeliner on their eyes and rouge on their face. They saw some lip stick to put on their face as well as the mirror then they got into Eric's bag. They got out shaving cream as Sam squirted it on David's hand then he put it on his face as Sam did the same when David squirted it on his hand. David got down, wiped the shaving cream off his hand to his dad's tie then went to the bag where the laptop is. Sam saw a perfume that was in a box and took it with him to join his brother where the lap top that his brother opened the lid and turned it on. David had it on his lap and was playing with it when Sam came.

"Oooohhh" They said in amazement when the programs came up.

David clicked on a program his father was working on and when it opened up, he started typing it up as he was working just like his dad. Sam unscrewed the perfume bottle when he asked to try it; he accidentally spilled it on the laptop when trying to take it from him. He got up, got one of his mom's underwear and his dad's tie to help his brother clean it up. Sam took the perfume, screwed it back, put it away then went back to his brother to get the laptop from him. They both started fighting, Sam had one end, David had the other and they tugged it while they had their fingers on a few buttons that made some of the programs to delete. They then put it in his bag and went back to playing with their parent's clothes.

Simon, who had just come home, came up the stairs, heard a commotion and went to his parent's bedroom where he was shocked to see what he saw then started yelling.

"Sam! David! What the hell are you doing! Why do you both smell?"

"We were playing with mommy's perfume and daddy's cream."

"Come here now." Their brother took them into the bathroom then took a washcloth from the drawer, put the toilet seat cover down and wiped off the cream from his brothers face.

"Put the underwear, ties and clothes in the hamper that you were playing with, put the chair back where it was." Their brother told them as he got up, washed off the washcloth before tossing it in the hamper.

Simon went to get some window cleaner to clean off the lipstick on the mirror then had his brother stand in front of him to get the make up remover off his siblings as their father walked in.

"Hi." His elder son said as he stopped rubbing the makeup off and looked up.

"Hi." His youngest boys turn around and welcome him home.

"Ahh!" Their father jumped back when he saw his boys' faces.

"Ahh!" The youngest boys yelled.

"What's going on?" Their father asked irritated tone of voice while his son had started on cleaning up his other sibling.

"We were playing dress up." David responded as he took a few steps to Eric.

"Why do you smell?" He waved his hand back and fourth then stated, "take care of your brothers." He ran into the kitchen where he remembered there was Apple pie in the fridge.

"That was weird." Simon thought to himself when he finished up cleaning his brothers face then told them to get ready for a bath.

They trotted ran to their room while he cleaned up the mess, turned off the light in the bathroom then turned off his parents' room light and headed for the bathroom turn on the water.

In Ruthie's room

Ruthie's subconscious

"Hi again beautiful." He wipes her tears with his hand and caresses her face while he stands in front of her.

"I wish I got to meet you. I think I fell in love with you when I saw you but was too chicken to meet you and I wish you and your parents didn't die." She quivers while she tells him as she stands in front of him also.

"I know. It's meant to be, maybe we weren't meant to be together but you will find someone, some day."

"I know but I just think you are so cute and if you had any girlfriends, she would have been the luckiest girl." He blushes.

"Thanks. You take care of your brothers and just wait; you will find the right guy."

"Ruthie! Wake up!"

A voice is heard in a loud, angry tone…
