5 Brothers and 4 Sisters {OTOC's challenge}

“Sure, I’ll come. It sounds like fun.” I told him. He look relieved and he smiled.

“Okay. I’ll drive you there. Let’s go.”
It was just a short drive to his house. We walked in and went downstairs. There was a mini stage and two rows of seats set up.

“It looks like you guys do this alot.” I said, questioning him with my eyes.
He could see the wonder burning there, and laughed. ” Yeah, I guess. We usually have at least one a month.”

“Sounds fun.” I smiled and we took our seats. The lights dimmed and the curtain opened. We sat quietly and watched. His brothers and sisters were quite the actors and actresses. The play lasted about 45 minutes. At the end They all came on stage and Joe introduced me to them.

“Okay, starting from the oldest over here. This is Lucy, she’s 17. Next is Alice, she’s 15. Then George, he’s 14. John and Cam are both 11. The twins, Jane and Nate, are 9. Lea is 7. And last is Tiny Tim, he’s 6.”
“Nice to meet you all.” I smiled. How am I going to remember all their names?
