"We'll discuss it Anthony. Wait out here in the meantime." Cathy said as she closed the door.
"Can we please hang out mom?" You begged.
"You have a job to do Tom." Catchy said right before they heard a knock at the door. "I swear I'll make that kid suffer!" Cathy said as she was about to walk to the door but was stopped by you.
"Um I'll get it mom!" You said as you ran to the door. When you opened it Anthony wasn't there, instead it was a man you assumed to be around the same age as Claire. He simply stood there smiling at you before finally speaking.
"Well... Can A LongLostBroHugHisStinkinLittleBrotherToDeathOrWhat?" He said quickly in a single breath.
"What? Is... Is that supposed to be a reference to something?" You ask. The man just kept smiling at you. You're family was a little confused by the situation. It was a miracle they didn't do anything to him. "Do... do I know you?" You ask.
"Did you not listen to a word I said? I'm you're brother Tom!" You were completely shocked by this. You never really remembered your brother, in fact you completely forgot about him! Amazed the two of you wrapped your arms around each other.
"You said that so fast, obviously I couldn't understand you!" You said in a reply to his last comment. You turned back to see your adopted family in complete shock by these current events. Claire was the first to speak up.
"Well, well a brother. Oh this is going to be fun, the three of us!" She said embracing the older brother with a wicked grin towards Tom you.
"Am... Am I just supposed to pretend that you're not smiling creepily at my little brother?" The older brother asked. Claire kind of gave him a weird look as if why would he say that.
"So, what's your name?" Cathy asked your older brother intrigued by the situation.
"Jerry." He answered.
"Jerry? Like Tom and Jerry?" Ann asked laughing.
"No, I just couldn't resist the joke. My real name is Gabriel. And is... she going to get off me?" Gabriel said feeling uncomfortable that Claire was still attached to him causing her to back off.
"Gabriel, we should talk." You say dragging your brother outside. Your adopted family were pretty sure they knew what you were going to tell him. "Gabriel! My family is NOT normal!"
"Well neither am I." He replied with a grin.
"I'm serious! They have these... weird powers!" You begin explaining.
