Gerald
He's always dreaded this moment, but now that Jamie-O was gone he was the big brother in the house. And it was now his sole responsibility to look out for her as a big brother.
He was closer to Timberly than Jamie was to her, and only three years apart they were literally more like friends. She usually told him everything before she even told their mom about it.
"What's his name?" Gerald inquired about the boy who's asked his sister out.
"Jordan." She replied.
"Chocolate boy?" Gerald scrunched his face.
"Nobody calls him that anymore Gerald, you know that."
"Did you tell mom and dad?"
"Nope, I want you to be with me when I do."
"Why me Tim? It's your date not mine."
Something about the D-word made him cringe, he couldn't believe his baby sister Timberly was finally at that age.
"Because that way it's gonna be a lot less awkward. Especially with dad, and you know Jordan you can back me up when dad starts asking me questions about him. Please Gerald." She gave him a puppy-eyed look.
Gerald couldn't help but give in, "Fine" he sighed. "We'll tell them before dinner tonight."
"I love you! I love you! I love you!" Timberly jumped up and down and gave him a tight hug.
