"Malika have you heard from Mike he's not answering his phone?" She looked up from her phone and said, "He's not answering me either I even tried Cal. Do you know where they went?" "They went to meet with Johhny. I called and he said they already met up." Miko walked into the room suggesting, "Michael's phone is probably dead or he's being a dick and ignoring us like last night." Malika cut him off before he could speak further, "Don't you dare blame Michael for grieving he found out first that's what the police said." Miko yelled, "Have you idiots sat down and thought about the fact if Michael wasn't a selfish retard are dad would still be here." I could tell Malika was getting upset "Miko you can't blame Michael for dad's actions." "I can because if he didn't get mom mad and get kicked out dad wouldn't have had to drive out there to meet up with him!" There was a dramatic pause the Malika said, "I can't." Malika covered her mouth and ran upstairs. Miko screamed, "Yeah run away just like he does run away then come back like everything is normal!" Malika was on the banister and I could tell she couldn't take it anymore she began to scream back, "Miko cut it out! Shut the fuck up you selfish brat your not the only one who misses him stop trying to blame Mike he was just trying to help!" Miko yelled, "Why do you defend him I love him too but whenever Mike tries to do anything with this family he always fucks it up!" She screamed again saying, "At least Mike has the balls to try and help are family instead of watching it fall apart!"

They bickered more and more. I began to breathe heavily and grab my thighs sharply. Miko and Malika's voices began to fade. I wanted my dad but he wasn't here. I stood up and grabbed the closest thing to me and threw it. The vase slammed into the wall and shattered on impactful they stop yelling and turned to see what had broke I scream like I was getting stabbed, "STOP IT! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! DAD WOULDNT WANT THIS! OUR BROTHER IS IN POSSIBLY IN DANGER SO COME ON DAMMIT!" I ripped the garage door open. And got into a car dad was working on. "Shit  it won't start." Malika knocked on the glass and said, "I have to put the battery in." Miko chimed in, "None of know how to put that in." Malika gasped, "Sibiling bikes now!" We all smiled and ran to the backyard and ripped the tarp off the BMX bikes Malika got on her purple one I got on my pink one Miko got on his orange one. 

Miko's View 

My sisters rode away assuming I was behind them. I admired my older brother's bike "I'm such an idiot I didn't mean any of that Mike I miss you even though your annoying sometimes I can't blame you for stuff like death and I'm sorry please god just let him be ok." My sister rode back into the yard and Malika asked, "Little bro are you coming?" I asked, "Where are we even going?" Malika paused, "Uhh, I don't really know, Kara?"   Kara snarkily responded, "Good question children I have an answer." She pulled out her phone and began calling someone. "Who are you calling Kara?" "Johnny?" He answered and said, "What up babe? HEard from Mike" Kara responded, "No where did you guys meet?" "Why does it matter so much?" "Because..." I snatched the phone and yelled, "Listen here you son of bitch tell me where you met my brother, or ill cut your fingers off then chop your dick off then send you afloat in the ocean!" "Ok man damn Geralds Creek ravine." "Ok thanks." I hung up the phone as it began to rain. We all hopped on our bikes and began to ride. 

We made our way into the biker's lane right next to the sidewalk. Malika began to make small talk, "You guys remember our little bike gang in middle school?" Kara and I smiled and both said, "Of course." Kara reminded me, "Did you fracture your arm?" "Yes don't remind me that sucked." Malika asked me and Kara, "Do you guys have your phones?" We both responded firmly, "Yes." I've never seen my sisters this determined I then asked, "Why are we even looking for Mike anyways he's probably out sucking face with Calvin." Kara snapped, "No! I just know there's something wrong." I and Malika looked at her like she was crazy. 

We peddled up to Michael's truck it was still. To still like it hadn't been touched in like an hour. Kara said in a heroic tone, "Alright little bro stay by the truck and the general perimeter. I and Malika are gonna go explore the interior." I nodded and wished my sisters foraged their way into the deep-looking woods. I grew nervous as I lost sight of Kara's dark red hair and Malika's black hair faded into the green I attempted to open Mike's truck with success. I sat in the driver's seat. Excited since I'm really excited to start driving. Well playing around I noticed a light blue phone case. I picked it up there was shockingly no password. I looked threw it well because I'm nosey. The background was of some cat. So obviously not Mike's phone process of elimination Cals phone. I began to search his gallery. I saw a picture of him and a horse. Grandparents, older brother, or uncle I couldn't tell which. Last but not least contacts. I began to scroll. Woah bad relationship dad noticed. Well, shit that guy was his brother damn 3 months no responses. Ooo Mike with a heart. My eyes widen as I scrolled up these do not look like platonic messages. 

Malika's View

We walked freely in the forest spotting a dirt pathed and quickly turned towards it. My sister Kara was nervous and hiding something I can tell. I couldn't deal with it anymore the constant secrets in this family were driving us apart. I stopped dead in my tracks a gust of wind blew my hair over my eyes, "Kara?" I said with a serious tone. "What are you hiding?" She paused in her steps and turned with a confused shocked face, "Nothing." She firmly spoke. I began to plead. "Kara please I can't take the secrets in this family. Dads gone. We need to talk and open up, we need a new beginning a new chapter.  It's hurting me that my younger brother and older sister are keeping secrets and cant tell us were a family I want this bond to last forever. Kara please." She crossed her arms looking down in disappointment. "Johnny has been getting drunk and sometimes he..." "He?" "He hits me." A shocked expression filled my face, "Why haven't you left?" "I... I'm... pregnant. And I wanna keep it." Surprise filled my body, "You're what Kara that's great I'm all for it." But I paused, "What about Johnny?" "He said he'd get better I kinda believed it. Mike found my pregnancy test. And he found out about Johnny and they met here. And now I'm a little worried Johnny may have hurt Michael."  I was bewildered, "Thank you for telling me." I ran up and hugged my older sister.

Our hug lasted about 30 seconds with me telling her, "It will be ok and Michaels a survivor he's ok." We stopped hugging and headed to a clearing. We then pushed away the bushed seeing a ravine. Kara ran close and we called, "Mike Cal?" several times no response. We then began to search some of the woods calling out for Mike and Cal. "Malika we cant get the police involved we gotta do this ourselves." I nodded as we walked on.
