Three Siblings Become Four
Carlos just stared at his big sister in complete shock at how she was acting. "Ava!" Carlos screamed out as he could see Evie looked heart broken at the way Ava reacted to finding out she was their sister and he didn't like that.
"What!" Ava screamed out as she really wasn't having the best week and she hated that life just kept throwing more and more curve balls at them and she was getting sick of it.
Now there was another kid to add into the mix and she was already struggling now, but she knew it would be wrong to just ignore Evie completely as it wasn't Evie's fault that their parents gave her up at birth.
Evie just sighed sadly as she watched Carlos and Ava argue as she knew it was obvious that Ava didn't like her and she was ruining things. "Told you she hates me I'll just go. It was nice getting to know you Carlos," Evie told her brother sadly as she didn't want to cause any problems.
Carlos just looked at his new sister in shock as he didn't want her to leave and she had just as much right to be there as they did as she was their sister too. "Evie don't go! You have a right to be here! You're family!" Carlos screamed out as he didn't like that Ava was making Evie feel like an outsider.
Evie just shook her head no as she didn't want to ruin anything. "Yeah but I don't wanna cause any problems. I'll just go now," Evie told Carlos again as she began to leave again, but got stopped by Ava this time.
"Wait!" Ava screamed out as she realized she was making her sister feel unwelcome when she wasn't trying to. She was still trying to process it all, but in the meantime she was hurting her sister and she didn't like that.
Evie just stopped and looked at Ava nervously as she didn't want to get her hopes up. "Yeah?" Evie asked Ava as she was afraid that it was a false alarm, but she smiled when Ava gave her a small smile.
"Carlos is right you're family. I'm sorry for acting like that, it's just this is all so much!" Ava told Evie, making her smile a little bit as she realized that Ava wasn't going to kick her out and that she was actually accepting her.
"Yeah I get it and I can help!" Evie told Ava as she could see Ava was struggling a lot and she wanted to help out her big sister. Ava just nodded in agreement as she was starting to think about what it would look like to have another sibling.
"Well at least you're Carlos's age and not another Mal. I don't think I could handle another toddler!" Ava jokingly told Evie trying to make her feel more welcomed as she was feeling bad for how she treated her before.
Evie just laughed as she sat down on one of the chairs in the room as she was starting to feel like she belonged. "Yeah I get that! Toddlers are adorable, but such handfuls!" Evie jokingly told Ava making her and Carlos laugh.
"Tell me about it!" Both Carlos and Ava said at the same time making all three of them start laughing. "You better be a good student because I'm not dealing with two misbehaved kids and a toddler!" Ava playfully told Evie after they all started calming down from their laughing fit.
Evie just looked at her big sister in shock as she was trying to tell if Ava was being serious or joking around. "Wait what?" Evie asked Ava in shock as she couldn't tell if Ava was messing with her or being serious.
Ava just laughed as she could see Evie looked completely caught off guard by her statement. "Oh come on I promised myself I wouldn't let my siblings go into the system and now that I know you're my sister that rule applies to you too!" Ava told her little sister, making Evie get excited while she was still in shock.
Evie hated her foster mom and she couldn't believe she was finally getting away from her and getting to live with her real family. "Wait you're gonna take me away from my foster mom!" Evie screamed out as it just seemed way too good to be true.
Ava just laughed again as she was actually starting to enjoy the idea of having another sister that was closer in age to her. "Yeah but only if you want to and you have to behave because I can't handle another misbehaved kid right now!" Ava told Evie, making Evie smile.
"Oh my gosh this is amazing! And I promise you won't regret it! And I can help you with money! I have a small business. I don't have a name yet for it, but I have been making a lot of money from it!" Evie rambled out excitedly as she couldn't believe this was really happening.
First she finds her birth family after years and years of searching and now her birth family wanted her to live with them. It really was like a dream come true and she was finally getting away from the "Evil Queen" as she liked to call her foster mom.
Ava just laughed again as she looked at Evie. "Really you have business? What business," Ava asked Evie in shock as Evie was only 14. Evie just laughed as she looked at her shocked sister.
"Yeah! And I'm a fashion designer!" Evie told Ava, making her look at Evie in shock. "No way I am too!" Ava screamed out as she couldn't help it. It was cool having another person to talk to about designing and fashion.
Mal was too young, Carlos was a boy, and all her friends didn't care. It was also nice having a sister that she could actually have normal conversations with not that she didn't love bonding with the toddler, but it wasn't the same as talking with Evie.
Evie just laughed as she looked at Ava. "Yeah I know Carlos told me! You are literally living my dream!" Evie screamed out making Ava laugh. "Really," Ava asked her sister, making her laugh.
"Yeah I literally wish I was you!" Evie screamed out making Ava laugh at how ridiculous she thought that sounded. Ava was struggling right now and she didn't even want to be herself at this point.
"Well I don't think you actually wanna be me trust me. I'm struggling right now. Heck I don't even want to be me right now," Ava told Evie as she motioned towards the sleeping two year old.
Evie just looked over to where Ava was pointing as she nodded sadly in understanding. "Yeah I totally get it. This sucks," Evie told Ava who just nodded, but before she could respond the small girl began to stir as she woke up.
"Hewo!" The small two year old screamed out when she saw Evie again. She didn't really know who Evie was, but she seemed nice. Evie just smiled a little as she looked at the confused toddler.
"Hey cuties," Evie told the toddler, making her just look back and forth between Evie and Ava as she didn't know what to think. "You wook wike mama!" Mal finally said out loud as she continued to look back and forth between her two sisters.
Evie just laughed as long with the others as they couldn't help, but find Mal's confusion adorable. "I look like your mama?" Evie playfully asked the toddler, making her nod. Evie just laughed again as she looked at the small girl.
"Well that's because I'm your sister too," Evie told the toddler, making Mal immediately shake her head no as she didn't believe Evie. Evie just laughed again as she was finding this fun.
"Yeah I am," Evie playfully told the toddler again, making her look at Evie in awe. "Weawy!" The young two year old asked Evie in shock making Evie laugh again. "Yeah!" Evie told the toddler in her best over the top excited voice making Mal laugh.
"Yay!" The small girl screamed out excitedly as she realized Evie was telling the truth and she liked having Evie there as Evie was nice and she reminded her of Carlos, but she looked like her mama.
Ava just smiled as she looked at the toddler remembering something that she had been told earlier after getting the results of Mal's last test. "Hey Mal guess what!" Ava told the small girl making her turn her attention from Evie and look at her.
"Wa?" The small girl asked Ava, making her smile. "We can go home tomorrow!" Ava told the toddler excitedly making Mal get really excited as she couldn't wait to go home. "Yay!" Mal screamed out happily making Ava laugh while Carlos just looked at her in shock as he couldn't believe it.
"Wait actually!" Carlos screamed out excitedly making Ava laugh as she was excited too even though she knew this was far from over and they were still only in the beginning.
"Yeah but she has to continue to take her medicine at home. And we still have to make trips here a lot since we're doing outpatient treatment. But for now we're going home tomorrow," Ava told Carlos as she was so sick of the hospital and couldn't wait to be home even if she knew this was still far from over.
Carlos just smiled as he looked at Ava. "Awesome! Can Evie come with us!" Carlos told Ava as he was excited, but he realized that meant they wouldn't see Evie everyday. Ava just sighed as she looked at Carlos.
She wanted Evie to stay with them too, but she also knew that it was a process. "I have to talk to the social worker about getting custody first," Ava told Carlos, making him groan as he wanted his sister to live with them already.
"Seriously!" Carlos groaned out making Ava roll her eyes as Carlos didn't realize that it was a process and wouldn't be automatic.
"Yeah Carlos that's how it works, but if her foster mom is okay with her coming over then I don't have a problem with it," Ava told Carlos trying to compromise as she wanted to see her sister too, but she knew she couldn't just take Evie without persimmon as that would be considered kidnapping.
Evie just groaned as she realized that meant she would never see her birth family until Ava did get custody as her foster mom would never allow it. "Well that's not happening my foster mom hates me!" Evie groaned out making Carlos look at her in shock.
"She does," Carlos asked his sister, wanting to hear more. Evie just sighed as she looked at Carlos. "Yeah but it's okay. I've accepted it," Evie told Carlos making him gasp as he looked at Ava just wanting to get his sister out of the system.
"That's horrible! Ava, you have to get custody now!" Carlos screamed out making Ava nod as she hated the fact that despite her vowing to keep her siblings out of foster care her sister ended up in foster care anyway.
"Okay I'm gonna go call the social worker and request to file for custody," Ava told Carlos as she just wanted to right the wrong that her parents did by putting Evie up for adoption.
"Right now!" Carlos screamed out making Ava laugh as she grabbed her phone and the number to Evie's social worker that Evie gave her. "Yeah I'm gonna call now. Watch Mal for me!" Ava screamed out making the twins nod as they looked at her.
"Got it!" The twins screamed out at the same time making them both start laughing again as they said the same thing at the exact same time. "Jinx!" The twins screamed out at the same time again making them laugh again.
"Okay that's creepy! Try not to use your weirdo twin powers around Mal you might scare her!" Ava playfully told the twins, making them all laugh as Ava left the room to go call Evie's social worker and request for custody of her sister.
