In the quiet kitchen, I found myself lost in thought, unable to fall back asleep. The sense of time eluded me, but it was undoubtedly late at night. Suddenly, Pete, Walker, Leena, and Tanner's dad entered.

"Hey kiddo, why are you up so late?" Pete inquired.

Unable to admit my introspective late-night session, I shrugged. "Can't fall back asleep. Just felt a bit hungry, I guess," I offered, masking the fact that I'd been lost in contemplation for the past 30 minutes.

Pete nodded understandingly, a warm smile on his face. "Late-night hunger, huh? Happens to the best of us. Want something to snack on?"

Grateful for the distraction, I replied, "Sure, that sounds good."

As he worked, he continued, "Late-night thoughts keeping you company, huh? It happens to the best of us."

I chuckled nervously,Pete handed me a plate with a thoughtful arrangement of snacks. "Here you go, kid. Late-night hunger doesn't stand a chance against a good snack," he said with a grin.

Taking the plate, I couldn't help but smile. "Thanks, Pete. You're a lifesaver."

He gestured to a nearby table, inviting me to join him. As we sat, munching on our late-night treats, Pete started talking about the time he was a kid. The kitchen, once quiet and solitary, now echoed with laughter and camaraderie, creating an unexpected bond in the stillness of the night.

Deciding on an outfit for my first Zoom meeting with a cast I'd never met, I found myself in the closet at 7 am after finishing my makeup and hair. I wanted something comfortable, I settled on a hoodie and sweats. After finalizing my choice, I headed downstairs to grab something to eat.

"Hey En, Hannah is arriving around 12 or 1 pm, so we all have to go pick her up," Nicole informed me. As I went to the fridge for some milk, I commented, "This house is full enough."

"What's wrong with one extra person?" Nicole questioned.

"Nothing, just throw out Walker, and we'll be good," I joked, pouring cereal into my bowl. Nicole giggled at my comment, saying, "Looks like we have an enemy here?"

"No, he just hates me for no reason," I replied, taking a bite of my cereal.

Nicole chuckled at my response. "Sibling dynamics, huh? You two will figure it out. Anyway, it'll be good to have Hannah here. It's been a while."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it," I admitted, finishing up my cereal. As we chatted.

After completing my preparations, I retrieved my laptop and headed to the living room. As I opened it, I noticed the Zoom meeting was approaching, and I could feel the anticipation building. It was almost time to meet the cast virtually, and I wanted to ensure everything was in order for the upcoming meeting.

As the Zoom meeting commenced, I couldn't help but notice a few familiar names on the participant list.
The faces on the screen belonged to Madelaine McGraw, Ariana Greenblatt, Jack Grazer, and Jacob Tremblay.
"Greetings, everyone! It brings me joy to see all your faces on the screen," James conveyed warmly.

The Zoom meeting was straightforward, with James introducing the project and sharing key details. Towards the end, everyone exchanged emails and numbers for further communication.

After concluding the Zoom meeting, I promptly flopped onto the couch, feeling the exhaustion kick in. Being far from a morning person, the idea of getting up early wasn't appealing.

"Get up, we're getting Hannah," Nicole declared.

"Too early," I mumbled in protest.

"The car ride is long," she reasoned. I groaned but reluctantly dragged myself up from the comfort of the couch.

"Alright, let's make this quick," I mumbled, attempting to shake off the remnants of my brief nap.

As we headed out the door, the anticipation of reuniting with Hannah was the only thing fueling my energy in the early hours.

Spotting Hannah approaching, a burst of energy surged through us, and without a second thought, we sprinted toward her, a chorus of joyful screams escaping our lips.

"Ennik, you've grown so much!" Hannah exclaimed, her hands cupping my face as she enveloped me in a heartfelt hug. The sincerity in her words echoed the time that had passed since our last embrace.


R speaking!

Listen the cast maybe a bit basic but please let me live 😖
