I heard a shout of surprise coming from upstairs...apparently Matt ran into Tina and both of them fell on their butts. The usual shouting and screaming began. I sighed and got up, bumping my knee against the table. Cursing in silence, I hurried upstairs. They were both still arguiing who walked into who. I waited for a moment, on the last step, before 'checking' on them.
It was weird seeing Matt equal height with his sister, but apparently he hadn't noticed yet. "What's going on here?," both heads turned to my direction. "Mom that stupid oaf..." Tina stopped mid-sentence as I took the final step. They stared at me, something was off and they knew it. I silently laughed and took a few steps towards them. I broke the silence telling them I had breakfast ready.
They looked each other in the eye and then I heard a surprised gasp come from my son. He finally realized he was directly looking in his sister's eyes. I wanted to keep the mystery alive so I went downstairs and sat at the table. A moment later we were all at the table eating, Matt and Tina just ate quietly. Their faces straight, just looking at their plates.
After ten minutes Matt got up and said he was gonna get dressed and ready for work. Tina said nothing and just stared at him leaving the room. I had to strain myself from bursting in to laughter. When I heard the bathroom door shut I knew it was time for the next step.
