Tiffany's P.O.V
Beep! Beep! Beep!
I was awakened by this darn stupid loud alarm clock.
Come on can't a girl get some sleep around here! If it ain't Jay who wakes me up by some stupid prank then it's this stupid alarm clock.
Sucks to be me, right?
I took the pillow which I was comfortably lying on and hid my face beneath it.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
I curse the day alarm clocks were invented.
Finally deciding that this wasn't helping in any way I finally got up and took the alarm off.
"Good Morning World," I muttered to myself as I began to stretch.
I headed straight to the bathroom to get ready for the day.
As I finished taking a shower and brushing my teeth I walked straight into my walk-in closet to pick an outfit for the day.
I simply went with a red and white jersey and black leggings with two chains (Pic below).
Despite being the daughter of a billionaire I like to keep things simple.
I then walked to my dresser to apply my makeup.
I took a really good look at myself in the mirror: I have thick define eyebrows with hazel eyes and dark brown shoulder-length hair that had just the right amount of curls I needed.
I just applied some lip gloss and mascara and just decided to leave my hair down in its natural length and headed right for the door.
**********************************************
As I entered the dining room I saw my mom setting the table.
My mother is one of the best moms in the whole world. She is the loving wife of Tom Carter. She has long dark brown straight hair (which I inherited from her) that flows right on her back with those damn gorgeous ocean blue eyes. She is just 5 ft 5 in height (Pretty short right). Although she is in her late 50's she looks pretty good for her age (I guess aging is not her thing).
When she had noticed that I entered the room she flashed me one of her brightest smiles.
"Good morning buttercup," she said.
"Good morning Mama Bear," I replied to her with a kiss on the cheek.
I took my seat at the table while I waited for the others to come.
"How was your day yesterday," she asked with one of her eyebrows rose.
"Uhmmm it was good," I replied a little bit confused.
Was I suppose to do anything important yesterday I questioned myself.
She was about to ask me another question when we heard the door for the kitchen opened.
There comes the devil smiling in all his glory.
"Good morning mom," Jay said while kissing her on the cheek and then taking his seat right opposite me.
"Good morning pudding," she said while kissing him on the forehead.
Hold up!!!
I didn't receive back a kiss when I kissed her.
Damnnn this favoritism.
I was broken out of my trance when the devil himself said, "Good morning Tiff," with that stupid smirk of his.
Jay was the smallest and vilest of the brothers. He had the perfect light brown hair which was messy at the moment. He had the same eyes as our mom and was 5 ft 4 already for his age which is like 14. If you have not lived with him for all your life you would mistake him for an angel with that face and smile of his.
But let me tell you that he is one EVIL little moron.
I just stared at him blankly thinking of ways that I can kill him before I said, " Good morning Jay bear," plastering the biggest fake smile I can give.
"Good morning Jay bear," he said imitating my voice which was definitely not how I sounded.
Before I could have told him something bad the door opened once again.
What is it with these interruptions yo.
My expression immediately changed when I saw Trey entered with Ella in his arms.
Trey is the eldest child and son of the Carter family. He is currently helping Dad run the multi-billionaire businesses and to be totally honest with you he was nothing like Jay for he was both loving and caring. Trey had the same color hair and eyes just as Jay only showed a lot more emotion than him. He is 5 ft 9 and he has this body that is worth dying for with his 6 pack abs and broad shoulders and he was only 22 years of age.
Ella however was only 7 years but was very beautiful for her age. She was the spitting image of mom for she had her long dark brown hair that touches her butt and she even had the same gorgeous ocean blue eyes. She is currently the youngest child and daughter of the Carter family. O how I love her so much.
I immediately got out of my seat and went to hugged them.
I love both of my brothers and sister but Jay just had a different way of seeing it.
"Good morning guys," they both said in unison.
"Good morning," the three of us replied in unison.
"Good so everything is set," said mom.
'Mom is dad going to have breakfast with us?" I asked.
"Yes sweetie," she replied. "He's going to be here any minute now."
Just as those words escaped her mouth the door open revealing dad.
Tom Carter the owner of some of the most well-known businesses in New York. Husband of Jennifer Carter. He is 6 ft 2 with very broad shoulders. His hair is light brown which Jayden and Trey inherited from him. He has hazel eyes which only I inherited from him. Despite being in his 50's dad doesn't seem to be aging.
Thank you, Lord, for blessing me with such good looking parents.
"Good morning my beautiful family," he said to everyone while walking going towards his wife. He hugged her and kiss her on the lip.
"Good morning honey," she said smiling like a maniac.
They were like two teenagers in love.
"Good morning dad," the four of us said in unison.
He and mom then took their seat at the table; he's at the head while her's was right next to him.
Everyone chooses what they wanted to eat and then mom prayed before we started to eat.
After we were all done dad started to talk.
"So, today we will be spending the whole day as a family since tomorrow school will be opening and I will also be very busy from tomorrow," he said.
It was true that dad was a very busy man who had little time for his family but he loves us all and finds the slightest opportunity to show it.
"We will go picnicking and play lots of games and after that, we will have our own official movie night at home," he said a smile spreading across his face.
Everyone was in utter shock but we all managed to said an OK.
We all took our dishes to the sink and I volunteered to wash them.
Ooouuu today is going to be a fantastic day!
*******************************************
After I finished washing the dishes I went upstairs to my bedroom hurriedly to choose my outfit for the outing.
After an hour of running through piles and piles of clothes, I finally decided on an outfit.
Okay so it's now 10:00 am so I still have 3 hours more to go.
I decided to play some video games to beat time.
As I checked back the time it was already 12 so I just went to take a shower and changed into my outfit.
I then applied some light makeup which consisted of mascara, eyeliner, black lipstick, and contour to complete the look. I left my hair down since I will be wearing a black hat.
As I looked at the time it was direct 1:00 pm so I just grabbed my hat and bag and headed downstairs to meet everyone.
As expected everyone was already in the family car waiting on my arrival.
I quickly opened the door of the car and entered the back seat.
I apologized for my lateness and they just simply nod saying that it was OK and with that, we headed to Manhattan Central Park.
******************************************
When we arrived at the park it was already 2:00 pm which means it took us a whole hour to arrived there.
Everyone just simply helped in taking out the stuff we needed for the picnic and games.
We find the perfect spot under a tree and mom and I set up everything while the guys and Ella played soccer.
Ella is a soccer player at her school so I'm not surprised at all and Jay is a basketball player while I'm a volleyball player and Trey is a footballer player.
Cute right?
After mom and I finished setting everything up we called the others to come and join us.
We talked about anything that came to mind and eat a whole lot.
Well, at least I'm positive I ate a whole lot.
We all agreed on playing Frisbee, soccer (boys against girls), and twister.
In the game of soccer, the girls beat the boys and they had to buy us pizza and ice cream for our victory.
At 5:00 pm we had already packed up all the stuff back in the car but we waited to see the sunset.
At around 5:30 pm the sun began to fade away and to be really honest it was a really beautiful sight to watch.
Everyone just sat there in awe staring at the beauty ahead of us.
When the sun had completely vanished we then decided to head home.
On our way, home dad had stopped to buy us girls our victory gifts for the movie.
*****************************************************
When we arrived home it was already 7:30 pm.
Everyone took the stuff out of the car and headed inside.
I headed straight to my room to shower because I was very sweaty and got ready for the movie night.
I quickly slipped on my minion pajamas shorts and top and headed straight to the theater room.
As I entered everything was already set up and ready to go.
I sat on the ground with my popcorn, pizza, and ice cream and coca-cola in front of me.
Ella took a seat right next to me while mom, dad, Jay, and Trey sat on the sofa behind us.
We decided on watching Night School with Tiffany Haddish and Kevin Hart.
Man and to tell you the truth I have never laugh so much in my life. I was literally crying because of the laughter from the movie.
Everyone in the room was laughing so hard anyone would think that we were mentally disturbed.
This was truly the best night I had in a very long time and I was really loving it.
At around 10 the movie finished and everyone was sent to bed by mom and dad because of school in the morning.
I kissed both mom and dad on their cheek and said, "Goodnight."
They both hugged and kissed me back on the check and said, "Goodnight sweetie."
I then left for my room leaving the two of them hugging each other.
As I entered my room I headed straight to my bed while grabbing my phone off of the nightstand to text my best friend.
To Best friend
I so can't wait to see you tomorrow.
From Best friend
Neither can I.
Today was one of the best days of my life and worth remembering.
And with that, I drifted off to wonderland.
