An elderly man on the way to his house in his hand was a bottle of beer, half empty under the crescent moon, gulping it down as he staggeringly lumbered home. He spotted the moon reflection on a pool of water near a dumpster then raised his head up staring directly to the moon, silvery shinning on him. He sighed and closed his eyes. “Show me a sign. Then....Then. I will never drink again.” He muttered, opened his eyes, to his amazement noticed someone flying, he squinted his eyes as the person landed on the roof of a house in front of him, and entered through the window. The man swallowed, looked at the bottle of beer in his hand then at the direction where the person landed, nodded. “It is official. Never again will I drink. Forever” He proclaimed, dropped the bottle of beer into a dumpster and slowly walked home. It was Kevin who landed and entered his room through the window. He had been practicing his newly found powers for several hours back at the top of the hill, with his flight giving him a serious puzzling circumstance, but he eventually broke through. On the bed he was breathing heavily, with his face looking straight at the ceiling. Smiling. Suddenly the door opened, he turned his head. Two heads popped forward screwing at him, Kevin flinched. “Gosh!! Why didn’t you girls knock? You scared me to death…” He shuddered, Gillian and Jennifer came in, scanning everywhere while Kevin narrowed his eyes. “Why are my sisters suddenly suspecting me?” he thought. Jennifer bent down looking under the bed then Gillian went to the window staring outside. Jennifer went to the toilet door opened it widely scanning the inside while Gillian went to the wardrobe opened the two doors widely staring at the clothes. Kevin slammed his hand to his face. “Come on. Tell me what you girls are looking for!” he complained. Gillian and Jennifer in the same manner turned the face feasting their eyes on Kevin while he laid down, seeing their eyes, he immediately sat up and lowered his head. Gillian and Jennifer propelled to him. “We are looking for our brother.” Gillian said. “Because you are not him.” Jennifer added, Kevin was already sweating profusely, he could not believe this two girls could easily see that the person sitting in front of them was actually not their brother, he didn’t know what to say or do. Suddenly Jennifer laughed. Kevin blinked. “Wait, what?!” “He fell for it. Again.” Gillian said, Kevin rolled his eyes at Gillian, as huge invisible question mark was on his head. “Since the day you came back from the hospital, you have been acting weird towards us. You hated us. But now you act as if you love us.” Jennifer said. Kevin rolled his eyes at Jennifer. “As in you girls did something like this to your senior brother before now and he fell for it. Again?!” he asked, Gillian and Jennifer nodded. He slammed his hand to his face. “And here I am thinking another way round.” “But that doesn’t mean we are not serious about this matter.” Gillian said pointing to him. Kevin blinked. “Mummy and daddy said food is ready.” Jennifer said as she and Gillian walked out. “and don’t forget to change your uniform. We covered for you that you were in the room sleeping, earlier.” Kevin nodded. Few moments later at the dinning room. Kevin was sweating profusely again as he wondered while everyone are staring at him eating, but what made it weirder was the way Gillian and Jennifer was watching him, those eyes could definitely make someone confess anything for what the person as done and didn't do. Kevin dropped his spoon. Looked at everyone at the dinning table, suddenly they all looked down eating their food. “What is going on, in this family?” Kevin thought, “What I saw in the screens are totally different from what am experiencing, or I didn’t remembered clearly?” he titled his head. “Kevin?” his Father called. “Yes, Dad.” “See…” his Father cleared his throat, “Uhm…. Tomorrow. We will take you to see the doctor.” “Again?!” Gillian and Jennifer complained. Kevin sighed, looked at his small sisters. “Don’t worry girls…All….” Before he could finished, Gillian and Jennifer completed his words. “Is well. We know big brother but Daddy and Mummy never told us the reason why you were always seeing the doctor almost everyday.” Jennifer said. “Alright. We will tell you when the right time comes.” Mother said smiling at the girls direction. Kevin observed both the boy's Mother and Father he could tell they are trying hard not to break down in front of their children. Then Kevin stood up. Everyone suddenly looked at his direction looking worried. Kevin froze. “Again?!” he thought then he smiled. “Uhm…thank you for the food. Am grateful.” He said as he picked up is plate, his food still unfinished, his Father and Mother suddenly stood up. “Don’t worry. We will take your plate to the kitchen. Go to bed.” Father said, Gillian moved closer to Jennifer. “I believe, Mummy and Daddy are acting weird too.” Gillian whispered into Jennifer's ear, Jennifer nodded as they both stared at their parents and their big brother. Few moments later, Kevin was in his bed, crossed his arm under his back head, staring at the ceiling, pondering about all what happened today. Slowly he gave in to sleep. The next thing he knew he opened his eyes in the same endless white light he met the Deity earlier. His eyelids drooped. “Back to this weird dimension again.”
