Two weeks had passed, and Travis was becoming a little worried about the DNA test. What if he was wrong? What if Carey wasn't his mother? It would be his entire fault. He'd feel so terrible.
"Maddie, Travis. We're having a staff meeting now." said Mr. Moseby walking to the candy counter. Maddie and Travis walked after Mr. Moseby. They came into the staff lounge where the rest of the staff was waiting for them. Maddie and Travis sat down next to each other. Travis laid back in his chair not really paying attention until Zack and Cody ran in.
"Mr. Moseby! Mr. Moseby!" the two boys called.
"Oh, Lord. Not now. What?" Mr. Moseby said his face in his hands.
"There's an envelope that just came." Travis sat up at this. His breathing rate increased.
"Are you OK?" Maddie asked, noticing his breathing rate.
"Yeah. I'm… I'm fine." Travis said.
"Thank you boys." Mr. Moseby said. The twins just stood there. "You two can go now." Zack and Cody still stood there. "OK. Have it your way. The package is for… Carey." Mr. Moseby walked over to her and gave her the package. Travis's stomach flipped. He was nervous, yet slightly embarrassed because everyone had gone quiet. Carey opened it and read it silently. Travis looked at her. When she had finally looked up, she smiled at him.
"Really?" Travis said making sure she wasn't joking.
"Yep."
"Can someone tell us what's going on?" demanded Muriel.
"It's actually a pretty long story." Travis said, laughing.
"Oh. Well, I don't have the time." Muriel said.
"Why? It's not like you do your job." Zack said.
"Make this long story short." Mr. Moseby said.
"You wanna tell them?" Carey asked.
"No. I'm still getting over the shock." Travis answered.
"OK. Zack. Cody. Sixteen years ago, your older brother was born."
"We have an older brother!" Cody exclaimed.
"I'm not the oldest!" Zack said.
"May I continue please?" The boys shrugged. "Anyways, Travis is your brother."
"Oh my goodness, not another one." Mr. Moseby said.
The boys looked at each other. Both of their eyes wide open. They both discussed this quietly. Meanwhile, everyone was talking to Travis and Carey. Finally, the boys had something to say: Sweet. They went to join their mom and brother in celebration, before Mr. Moseby said get back to work.
