Cash

Also, I don’t want to.

I roll my eyes. I don’t know why I expected any of them to show up. Myles is rarely home, and when he is, it’s for an audition or to meet someone about an audition. I’m incredibly proud of his hustle, but just hearing about how hard he’s working makes me tired.

Mercury is another story. When she’s not working, she’s at home. While I don’t consider myself a true introvert, my little sister definitely is. She may love rock music, but she is not the quintessential rock-chic. She would rather spend her evenings at home watching concerts than actually attending them.

Cash…well, Cash is a grump who doesn’t remember what fun even is anymore.

Me

You know, I don’t feel very supported right now.

Zara

We’re coming!

Me

Omg! ZARA! When did you join the sibling group chat?

Zara

I’m not actually sure. Hen must have added me cause you guys just started blowing up my phone while I was waiting for him to finish movement therapy.

Myles

That sneaky little shit. He just wants to get another vote on his side when it comes to choosing a name for the group chat.

Zara

Well, I’ve got news for him. I’ve heard some of his name ideas (Creed It and Weep?!?!), and they’re shit. He doesn’t get my pity vote.

Merc

That’s horrendous. Also. you’re my new favorite sister.

Myles

Same.

Me

Honestly, that’s so fair. You are the only one coming to my Halloween party, after all.

Merc

RUDE.

Zara

I’m just excited to see what Hen picked out for a costume.

Me

You don’t know?
