293-The Pregnancy Test

Emmet:

I returned to my room with so many theories running through my head. I noticed that Helanie didn't look happy about her mother marrying our father. That was probably because her mother didn't want her around either, so celebrating her good news wasn't likely on her list.

I didn't care about her mother. She could marry or not marry my father—it didn't matter to me.

But my brothers were upset; that much was obvious. Kaye and Maximus missed their childhood, hence there was something missing in their maturity. They blamed Ursula too hard for ruining my parent's relationship, but my parents weren't innocent either. 

"Emmet!" A knock on the door—two quick taps followed by two louder ones—already told me who it was.

"Come in, Norman," I called, glancing at the clock. He walked in but suddenly froze when he noticed what I was doing.
