NOPOV
Sonny was walking down the hall of her Malibu mansion when her phone began to Moooooo. "Hello?"
"Hey sis. How is Hollywood?" Holly, her older sister, asked.
"Fine, fine." A smile creped over Sonny's face.
"Well that's great. I once again am so sorry I missed you wedding." Holly's voice got really apologetic.
"Holly, that's fine. I've missed things for you. I missed the party mom threw you before you got married."
"But that was nothing."
"It's okay. Look I've got to go fix dinner. I'll talk to you later."
"You promise?"
"Promise." Sonny hung up her phone and placed it back in her pocket. She finished her walk to the kitchen and went straight to the room where they kept their food. She looked around hoping to find noodles. When her eyes caught the red box in the far corner she hurried to grab it.
She walked out of the room and began to prepare dinner for two. Sonny was fixing noodles with gravy and meatballs. It was one of her favorites.
Sonny now started getting napkins, forks, knives, cups, and plates set out. Right after she finished with the silverware the home phone began to ring. She hurried to answer it.
Once more she answered, "Hello?"
"Sonny!"
"Kim?"
"Don't tell me you forgot you little sister?"
"I didn't. How could I forget you?"
"You couldn't."
"So what's up?"
"Well, I was
just wanting to say that I am starting high school next year!"
"No way! You are already that old huh?"
"Are you calling me old?"
"Why would I say that? I'm by far older than you."
"Good point."
"Any advice?" Sonny gave her little sister some advice about high school and what to watch out for. "Hey, how are things going for you?" Kim was beginning to sound noisy.
"Noisy much?"
"Sorry, I was trying to stop that." Right after Kim spoke Sonny heard the door open and then close while.
"It's fine. We are doing great."
"That's good. Did you know that well mom was… mom is…. mom's…"
"Can you please hurry up I am about to eat?"
"Oh sorry. Well mom is kinda sick right now. She has the flu. And dad is going on a business trip that he can't get out of so I was wondering if I could come visit you and bring Jake with me?"
"Sweetheart, I'll have to get back to you on that. When?"
"Tuesday."
"I'll call you later. Alright, bye."
Sonny hung up, she was happy to have heard from both her sisters in the same day. If only every week was like this. She missed her family dearly and wanted to see them all again. Especially Jake since she hadn't seen him since he was in first grade and now he was in third.
"So what is for dinner?" her husband asked walking into the room and over to the table. Sonny smiled. "Sorry, I was just fixing dinner for myself since you seem to never be home since you have had all those premieres for your movie."
"Hey, watch it. You're gonna mess my hair up."
"Is that all you care about still?"
"No, you matter more."
"How sweet. Get yourself some meatballs, noodles, and gravy. You are serving yourself."
"Fine, if you insist." Sonny grabbed herself a heap of noodles and smothered them in gravy and added four meat balls to the pile. He had about the same, "I haven't ever seen you eat that much. Ever."
Sonny began to blush, "I just got hungry." He laughed and sat down at the counter since it wasn't as big as their dining table in the other room.
It was a comfortable silence while they ate. The only sounds made were when someone was chewing or when my stomach growled. "Wow, someone really was hungry," her husband finally said. "You're a movie star yet you eat so much."
Can you guess who she is married to?
"I'm still growing you know?"
"Maybe I am too. Okay that might not be true."
Chad laughed and stuffed more noodles in his mouth. "Sweetie, can I ask you something?"
Chad turned his head and nodded so he wouldn't have to open his mouth. "Kim called and said my mom had the flu and dad was going away on a business trip. She asked if her and Jake could come and stay with us for a few days. Can they?"
Chad shrugged, "Sure. But only if you want them to. I don't care. We have enough room for them." Sonny gave him a big hug in return before rinsing her dishes off. "Wait when will they be coming?" Chad asked standing up from his seat. "Tuesday."
"That's in two days?"
"Yeah, but we don't have anything to clean up besides the kitchen, living room, they won't be in out room, the bathrooms. That's about it."
"Fine, I'll take tomorrow off to help clean the house."
"Aren't we going to hire someone?"
"It's fine. We don't need to."
Sonny yawned, "Well I'm gonna head on up to bed. See you tomorrow. Chad bent down and gave Sonny a quick kiss on the cheek before heading to watch TV in the other room while she went upstairs to bed.
