We are Family

There, good job, see, it’s just a piece of cake! Haha!, Claude explained. But Star lost her grip on the branch and fell on top of Claude whose face and chest laid flat on the grassy ground. Ow, ow, ow! Starrrrr!!!, Claude yelled. Hihihi!!! Sorryyyy, I slipped!, Star giggled her dress all over Claude’s head and suddenly he felt that her underwear seem to touch his hair follicles that made his face red with embarrassment. You silly girl, your, your panty has touched my hairs and ….yuckkk!!!, Claude yelled out trying to get her off of him.

Hihihi!!!!, Star blushed and stood up immediately so it won’t be embarrassing to see Claude’s face after the awkward situation they were in a minute ago. Ah….I think Sir Lance is calling me, see you later, Claude!, Star casually said and walked to the house. She was that fast and she’s already gone that I wasn’t able to respond right away. Huh!!!

That was the first time I had a lot of fun with a girl. Star came to our life and it’s more interesting and fun with her in it!, Claude cried.

Darling, what took you so long? Breakfast is getting cold?, Fame cried seated on the right side of his dad on their long table in the dining area. Uhp!!! Ah! It was nothing Ma!, Claude replied scratching his head then remembered Star and how her underwear touched his scalp that made our boy blush all of a sudden. Hmm!!! Did you ran into something or someone maybe?, Fame added and strayed a glance at Lance and giggled.

 I see, so, you met our tiny visitor, Star?, Lance said casually. Oh, yes, father but she is not well bread, silly, but….but….!, Claude continued. Cute?, Fame teased. Mama!, Claude cried aloud twitching his mouth.

I see, so you like Star. That is a relief since she’ll be staying with us for a while. Might as well get used to being with her starting today!, Lance ordered. I don’t late Father but since he is very strict and formal I always run to Mother whenever I feel sad, down or scared.

As a De Vaughn, you can never let shyness, awkwardness and fear seen on your face. You need to act, move and present a respectable and honorable demeanor. Though, I slip up with on the demeanor side sometimes, I tend to get back up and save myself by acting that nothing happened or that no one or nothing could bother me. But it is very hard to pretend I am strong all the time. I get weak, scared, demotivated or sad too. Especially in school when girls and boys my age see me as an aristocrat, though I am born with a silver spoon, I am still human. I can get embarrassed, shy, scared or defensive too. Yet, the people around me don’t understand that. They just assume that since I’m well off I am always okay, happy or priviledged. No, not at all! I am a De Vaughn and that is just it. My last name just happens to be a prominent name in the current society now but we are breakable, Claude explained.
