Elphaba was sat on her bed covering her ears as tight as she could. She was trying to block out ther sound of her baby sisters screams. Normally Nessarose would just cry, but today she was just extra loud. Nobody knew why. She just wouldnt stop crying and she had been crying for 3 hours! It was just ,elena, Nessarose and Elphaba in the house. Frex was at a meeting, but melena thought he should be back any miniute. So would Eliza and little Galinda.

"Elphaba?" Melena shouted over the top of Nessarose's cries from the bottom of the stairs, who was also

rocking her in her arms.

There was no reply.

As Elphaba sat covering her ears, she heard Nessaroses screams get louder and louder. Until her mother opened the door and the screams were right next to her.

"Elphaba, Galinda will be here soon."

Eplhaba then took away her hands from her ears, Nessarose's cries still going. " Mummy, cant Nessarose be quiet, I cant hear anything."

Melena looked from Elphaba to Nessarose then back to Elphaba. Just then, Frex came through the door.

"Hello Honey" Melena smiled at him.

"Hey" He said then he looked at Elphaba. "Hey Elphaba"

"Hello Daddy"

Frex put his hands out to get Nessarose from Melenas arms. "Now Nessarose my baby girl, whats up with you." As soon as Nessarose was in her fathers arms she immeditently stopped crying.

"Oh, thank you" Melena smiled. "Shes stopped finally, shes been crying for hours."

"Yay" Elphaba clapped her hands together.

"You should've phoned me love." Frex kissed his wife.

"You were at a meeting though"

"You still could of phoned, Im always here for you."

Just then, the door bell went.

"I'll get it" Melena ran down the stairs. Elphaba climbed off her bed and followed her mother. Melena reached for the door and opened it. There stood Eliza and little miss Galinda. "Hi"

"Hey" Eliza replied. Galinda ran towards Elphaba who was at the bottom of the stairs.

"Come in" Melena gestured.

"Hello Elfaba" Galinda said as she hugged her as a three year old would.

"Hello Gawinda" She returned the hig. Elphaba then looked at her mother. "Mummy, can we go to the woods?"

Melena looked at Eliza."Does Galinda want to go to the woods?"

"Um, Galinda Honey, do you want to come to the woods with Elphaba?"

"Yay, Momsie lets go"

"I'll take that as a yes" Melena and Eliza laughed. "Alright Elphaba, you go and get your coat on" Galinda already had her coat on , so there wernt much point in telling her.

"Yes mummy" Elphaba said as she went to fetch her coat.

"Momsie, my coats stuck" Galinda said but it sort of sounded like a moan too, while trying to get her zap done up on her bright big fluffy pink coat.

Eliza bent down to her daughters height and did her zip up for her.

Elphaba came back with her coat on. Frex followed behind her carrying Nessarose.

"I'll come, It'll give Nessarose some freash air" Frex said putting Nessarose in her pram.

"Ok" Everyone replied.

Nessarose then put her hand in her mouth and started giggling.
