"Sidney, Kev and his mom are on their way over for dinner!" Theresa called up to the energetic two year old. All she could hear after that was the fumbling toddler running down the upstairs hallway and down the stairs to the grand entrance of the beach house. The two families had begun to turn into one the day that the Evenings moved in. After that Kevin McIntyre and Sidney Evening were inseparable. Theresa watched Kevin when his mom, Adela, went back to work after Mr. McIntyre left his family. Joseph became the father figure to Kevin, and didn't mind seeing as he had only a daughter and another on the way.
"Come on Kev! Let's go to the playhouse," Sidney whispered as she pointed with her tiny pointer finger. When they reached the wooden shed-turned play house sitting next to the propertyline, the two toddlers layed on the floor next to eachother.
"I wish I had a brother." The chubby, dark curly haired little boy said, breaking the silence.
"Well you've got me. And I'll share Willow with you. If you promise not to break her."
"You really mean it?"
"Do you promise not to break her?" Sidney replied with half grin.
"With all my heart!"
