“You can’t be serious, one day we magically come out of a giant machine in your attic, that you forgot about, and now you’re just going to take us in like it’s completely normal, not to mention that we aren’t even human. I mean for Christ’s sake you don’t even know if we’re dangerous” Crystal spat out.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqZuHb1Vee
Charlotte rebuttal back tired with her sister's BS. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNe8wQU4d5E
“What do you want them to do. What would you do in this situation, huh?” 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNikaoxT4b
“Um I don’t know, maybe not forget about us in the first place, and how do we know they're not dangerous, they could’ve just stolen and been lying about how there our biology mother and father.” She responded.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmk0Y5IMUL
“I don’t think they would have given us clothes and names if they were just going to hurt us, plus look at us other than our … whatever you want to call it we look just like, I mean look at him .” Noella interjected while pointing at Matthew. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemDtCOnGlY
“ Don’t even get me started on him, he’s the reason we were forgotten about in the first place!” Crystal shouted. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPvbAgmz8m
“Don’t worry this is normal, I have 4 sisters” Ben whispered to Luke, Marie, and Matthew. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRulJUncQLU
The room grew silent. Everyone was uncomfortable.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1SZx7DVBS
“Do you guys eat?” Ben asked Crystal while giving her a smile in hopes it would ease the tension. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtc8KpUKoq
Noella stood up and answered for her sister afraid she might say something rude. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOITlRm9dfp
“ We can eat, and speaking of ,me and my sisters are very hungry, I’m sure the rest of you guys must be as well” she said while smiling and blushing. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXyJ59Afgg
It was clear that Noella thought Ben was cute and had a little crush on him. Although that didn’t mean anything because he was the first non family member they’ve ever seen. Ben was completely oblivious. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XEv859Fy7
“I know what we should do!” Exclaimed Ben with a huge smile on his face.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXT74CJpHu
“They have never eaten food so we should order in from a bunch of places and see what they like!” He continued. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjhTSQNIbg
“That actually sounds like it would be a good idea, not to get sciencetifical on you but it be a good to see if you guys are prone to take a liking to any one group of food over a another and how your mutations, in a sense, could affect your natural diet.”Luke replied. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDU53plLUa
“I’ll go to the store and get a wide variety of fruit, vegetables, and meat.” Marie said. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhs3APRrsag
“ We can door dash some sushi, pizza, nachos, ice cream, and wings!” Matthew said with a smile. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLXxCuMKxP
“ That all sounds fine but normally we’ll have a healthier diet” Luke granting approval to both his wife and son's requests. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMjTSMeQgg
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3FeNyA1CQ
Within an hour Marie had arrived back from the grocery store and all the food had been delivered. Marie, Luke, Ben, and Matthew already knew what they liked so they just ate what they liked while the girls took their time looking at each food to determine what they should try. You could tell by the look on their faces that they were hesitant to try anything. Crystal was the first to touch anything. She looked at the California rolls and put one on her plate. She took a bite of one and then began to load her plate with sushi. Noella seemed to take a liking to the fruit. Her plate had piles of strawberries, pineapple, kiwi, and dragon fruit. Although she might have just liked it because of all of the bright colors the fruit has to offer. Charlotte seemed to be the least hungry out of all them. She had some chicken wings but that was about it. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRywWilUeLy
After dinner Marie and Luke knew it was time to discuss sleeping arrangements. They were both well known scientists so they were wealthy, not incredibly rich, but enough income to have a big house and live comfortably. Also enough money to the point where they weren’t worried about the expenses that a few more children would bring. The house had a few extra rooms. Marie had always wanted a daughter so the idea of decorating and buying things for their rooms excited her. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nbsRZAIjG
“Eventually everyone will get their own room and bed but for now we will have to make do with what we have. One of you can sleep in Matthew’s bed, Matthew you will be sleeping in a sleeping bag in the living room, one of you can sleep in the guest bed, and the other can sleep one the couch.” Marie said while looking at all four of her children. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJH1DU8T6q
“ I call the guest bed” Charlotte responded . 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZU5Sr288L
“ I call Matthew’s bed” Crystal followed. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyojbrYh8X
That's when everyone realized Noella had fallen asleep on the couch. That’s also when everyone noticed that her hair that was made up of strains of Christmas lights “shut off” like when you unplugged a Christmas tree and nose, fingers, and toes that glowed had seemed completely normal. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoaPEdVaqW
“Noella get up” Mathew whispered in her ear.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEIjiUgD3x
“Huh….what?” She opened her eyes and muttered. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwcWFMFwFz
The minute her eyes opened her hair began to glow again along with her nose, fingers, and toes. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pNMPVmWNM
“Oh..nothing I was just making sure you were alright, your…. lights went out” He replied feeling guilty that he woke her up for no reason.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsWjJzYJFp
She turned her head back to its original position and closed her eyes. A couple seconds later her glow disappeared again. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡif2V5KS9Ck
“Weird” Ben said after observing the incident. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGTsCU0KC2
“ The lights in her hair and glow in her skin must only stay “on” when she’s awake.” Luke said. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqoBI295cn
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjIlenGhw4
The next morning….179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYoV7pjLmA
“Matthew wake up!” Marie whispered to her sleeping son with a huge grin on her face. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AcCYUFYdV
“Huh… w..what’s going on?” 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WpveerN3L
Matthew was not a morning person. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCJmZrpcC5
“Me and your father are taking off work, we want to surprise the girls by decorating the spare rooms to make them into their rooms” She was very excited to tell her son about their plans.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriwU9zo0Bv
“Oh so that wasn't a dream” He said groggily, half joking, half not. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBsRiqlaWK
“We need you and Ben to get them out of the house for the whole day.” She continued. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsN1ckNcGs
Matthew acted like he didn’t want anything to do with his new sisters but the truth was he always wanted siblings, he hated being an only child. Ben came from a large family and he was always jealous of him. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSomWlrBOHp
“Where do you want us to take them, we will stick out like a sore thumb the minute we go out outside. “ He replied while getting out of his sleeping bag. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6KHaDfkrN
“ We thought about that!” She countered while handing him a pan flip. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihS4Mrtkph
He looked at the pan flip before reading the title out loud. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbUykbpbwW
“ You want us to take them to a Comic-con?” He was skeptical. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9JIDJy7n6
“They’ll fit right in and it would be a good way to show them how certain aspects of society function” 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl4IROcKhy
He grudgingly obliged. He knew Ben would be more than willing to go. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4vQd2ql2m
Ben and Matthew both had their licenses but Ben had the bigger car so he drove while Matthew explained what to expect. Surprisingly all three of them seem anxious to get out of the house and see the world. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0CmpLLq5i
“If anyone asks, tell them it’s just an expensive costume and good makeup” Matthew knew that this was the biggest point he needed to get across. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjcpNolZmd
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSLi55xw54
They all got there and actually seemed to be enjoying themselves. No one really gave any of the girls any trouble, just a couple compliments here and there. About two hours in, Ben noticed some guy talking to Noella. Even Ben could notice that he was hitting on her. Noella was completely oblivious, she didn’t know what was the social norm and what wasn’t. He walked up to them. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tlBdrWXD6
“Hey Noella, who is this?” He interjected in almost a cocky tone. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKnIwmjPe0
“Oh this is Zach, We were talking about our favorite costumes we’ve seen.”179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVEPhU5asU
“Oh my bad, are you guys …..?” Zach said while looking at Ben. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTDHP2NFlP
“Yeah!” Noella answered for him with a smile on her face. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFmUAJjCsG
After that it got pretty awkward. Zach made up some excuse to leave. Ben was still stunned with Noella’s answer. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbbop2IOwV
“Noella, what do you think he meant when he said you guys?” Ben asked her.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm3UGzPvNO
“ That we’re friends” 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBjuLsDIyH
“ I think he meant if we are girlfriend and boyfriend.”179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQdLaMHw08
“Well if we are friends and I'm a girl and you’re a boy then wouldn’t we be girlfriend and boyfriend?”179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoey93zbzvK
“Ummm not exactly, girlfriend and boyfriend mean that they are dating.”179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwPxBM9x8x
“What’s dating?” 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCn4IcehW8
“Um it’s hard to explain, Matthew will explain to you later, he’ll explain it better anyways” Ben made it Matthew’s problem. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5y80kH4eg
They were there for several more hours. They stayed till it got dark. Matthew and Ben were careful not to expose Marie and Luke’s surprise. When they got home Marie and Luke greeted them with big smiles. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bxNgRd9N1
“ We have surprises for you!” Luke said.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXg5MkYBzq
“Noella go check in the basement, Charlotte look in the guest bedroom, and Crystal go look in room across from the guest bed.” Marie said.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZymuxgnfB
All the girls rushed to where they were instructed to go. The basement now had walls in it making up a room. The room was fairly large, they paint each wall a different color. A muted red, a bright red, a muted green, and a bright green. They even hung Christmas lights along the walls to match. The room matched Noella’s personality perfectly. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZNq8hv5C3
“OMG I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Thank you guys so much.”179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvsIFDn6ew
“Of course honey, and as time goes on you can decorate it more”Marie and Luke replied and were relieved she liked it. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCbsAyRnaT
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jPO8X180i
The guest room was completely redecorated for Charlotte. The bed now had a sheet and quilt with purple and lavender design along with gray pillows. There was also a black desk in the corner of the room with a basic black chair. The walls were now covered with pictures, decorations, and music records. The whole room had a grunge 80’s vibe to it.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5OU5HQl9i
“Thank you guys so much, I really love it” she said while giving them a hug. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdo9t3sIaD
“Of course sweetie” 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFCBp0wrgE
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xFVpTs5gx
What used to be a storage room was now Crystal’s room. The room now had a white loft bed. Underneath the loft was a blue bean bag chair. The room had a cool tone/ blue color scheme. There was also now a white book shelf with a cluster of clear crystals for decor. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwswfFDbXZs
“Thank you. I really appreciate it.” She talked very quietly and avoided eye contact. 179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XfphrJnh8
“Of course, we also have another surprise for you and your sisters downstairs.” Marie said, hoping she might look up at her.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OB0r4o8Uy
