Neon restaurant
At Neon restaurant, Aiden Green, the 18-year-old son of Mrs. Green, was working hard. He was a good-looking teen, and he took pride in his work. The restaurant was small, and Aiden was holding a napkin, using it to clean the kitchen counter.
The door opened, and a fat, grumpy woman came in. She was the owner of Neon restaurant, and her face always had a frown on it. "Are you still cleaning the counter till now? Hurry up and leave; this place is getting late already," she said, her voice sounding like that of a man.
Aiden nodded, "I'm almost done already." He said, and he heard his phone ring, but he did not reach for it. Mrs. Green might confiscate it. The woman glared at him like he did something wrong before leaving the kitchen.
A few minutes later, his phone rang again, and he reached for his apron pocket. He brought out the phone and checked the caller's ID, and the screen was displaying the name "Cathy." "Cathy, what is it?" he scolded immediately he answered the call.
"I'm waiting for you outside, dude," she said. Aiden frowned, "Why do you want to get me into trouble? I'll lose my job," he said, alert and checking if his boss was close by.
"Why the heck is she keeping you there till this time? Spend a second late, and I'm coming to drag you out of that place," she warned. Aiden nodded, "Please don't do it, okay? I'll be out now," he said and ended the call.
"What a demon," he thought with a frown. "How did I end up stuck with that stuff as my sister in the same house? FR, I'm starting to feel like she's adopted," he thought with a scoff, hurriedly cleaning the counter.

Outside the restaurant
Aiden came out of the restaurant and immediately felt a spank on his head. He frowned and turned - it was no other than Cathy, his sister. She is 16, a blond girl with long lashes.
"Geez, you are lucky I was speaking with some street boys. If not, I would have come in there and dragged you out like a garbage bag," she said.
He just stared at her, hands in his pocket.
"For real, street boys? You know what will happen if mom gets to know, right?" he asked.
She licked her lips.
"That's if you go ahead and tell her," she said, and started walking faster.
"Cathy, wait for me!" he said, increasing his pace.
"I swear, if I get you..." he said, getting angry Already, she turned and stuck her tongue at him, also showing him her middle fingers.
"You cannot do more than a dead rat," she said, and bumped into someone by mistake.
She slowly turned to face the person, her brows up, already ready to get mad at the person, knowing fully well she was the one at fault.
The guy was chewing gum, putting on a headset, and his hands were stuck inside his pocket.
"Are you blind?" she said.
"You're the one who's blind here," he replied. "You saw a lady walking backwards - what did you do? , "What did you do? Nothing! You are so dumb not to know that you're supposed to avoid me!"
The few people walking on the road stared at her like she was mentally derailed.
"You all, mind your business!" she yelled at them, and they faced where they were going.
The guy smirked. She stretched out to drag the boy's hair, but Aiden interrupted by pulling her off
"Cathy, must you always cause trouble?" he asked.
"He started it first! He should have apologized," she said.
Aiden shook his head. "You are the cause."
She flared up. "You are choosing a stranger over your sister? You know what? You're pathetic! I'm out of here," she said, and hurriedly walked away.
Aiden said, with a bow, "We're sorry."
The guy just looked at him from head to toe.
"Your sister needs a chain before it's too late," he said, before walking away too.
Aiden said, with a scoff, "The i***t!"
He thought, "Oh gawd, what the f**k is wrong with Cathy?" and continued his stroll back home.
