One best buddy, one best ed?
My alarm went off at 6:45. I was so hyped up. I had just graduated from Teaching College. Claps on the house, too.
" L.J? You up yet?" my younger sister said.
" Yep, so up."
It was also my sisters first day of secondary school. She was already in her uniform. I was teaching her science, computers, English and Home Group. The school was a boarding school.
"Get all your stuff, Alex. Cousin Andrew don't want us to be late..." I trailed off.
I was also teaching with my cousin. We sort of did the same thing.
We brought our suitcases to the car. We car-pooled.
" Don't fret about us, mum. We are protected by anti-virus software... It's called Andrew Rimmer."
" If you call your cousin Rimmer-"
"He dosen't care, mum."
At 8:00 AM, Alex, Min-Darcy, Gabby, Claire, and all of our suitcases were in the car.
"You've got to stop calling me 'Laura,' and start to call me ' Miss Hector.'" I said to them.
"So, what sector of the school are you in, Miss Mortimore?" Darcy said.
" Darcy, my uncle, rimmer and I don't like being called Mortimore's. Too long. I'm in year 7, also in RimmerWorld, Gab."
Claire and Alex were silent all the way there. This was the first time they were in a class with their sister.
Luckily for them, they just went to level assembly... with me.
