Chapter 2
Darcy knocked on the door and Ruby opened it immediately. Alyssa came running to the door as soon as she saw her cousins.
"Bri Bri! Darcy!" she greeted them loudly.
"Awh, hello Lyss! Tone your voice down! Bri's sleeping," Darcy said.
"Sowwwyy!," said Alyssa and grabbed onto Darcy's legs.
"Awh, it's alright. Play with your toys for another 10 minutes, and Bri should be awake by then."
"Can you play with me?"
"I can't, sorry. I've got homework but as soon as I'm done, I'll play with you."
"Yaaaaay!" Alyssa ran off to play with her toys in her room.
Today wasn't going so well for Charlie. She had mixed up pizza toppings three times already.
"Babe, are you alright? You can take a rest if you want?" Brax said.
"But we'll be short on staff. Look how busy this place is."
"I can get Casey to come in. Surely Romeo doesn't need him right now."
"What if he's in the middle of something?"
"Charlie, trust me. He won't be. If you're not feeling well, take a rest."
"No, I'm fine, really."
"If you say so, but the next time something gets mixed up, you're going on a break. You hear me?"
"Haha yes, boss," Charlie joked.
It was lunchtime and Alyssa was getting extremely restless. She had been playing with her toys by herself for the past hour. Brianna was suppose to be awake ages ago, but it seems as if she's dozed off into her own little world big time. Ruby and Darcy had been doing their work this whole time, and they hadn't even noticed the numerous times where Alyssa randomly shook Brianna pram, hoping she would wake up. Alyssa ran up to her sister as she was getting awfully lonely.
"Ruby... Are you done yet?"
"Almost, give me two minutes."
Alyssa sighed. She raced back to Brianna and started to jump around. Cries were coming from the pram.
"Ugh, Lyss! You should've left her alone!" shouted Ruby.
"But nobody would play with me!" sulked Alyssa.
"I told you I'd be done in a few minutes!"
Alyssa couldn't take all this yelling and shouting. She started bawling her eyes out. While Darcy went to calm Brianna down, Ruby went over to her sister.
"Awh, come here Lyss! I'm so sorry baby! You know I didn't mean it. You have to remember that Bri's only young. She needs her sleep. Besides, it's good when she's sound asleep. You don't realise how often Bianca and Heath wake up in the middle of the night because of the amount of times she cries. You were the same."
Alyssa struggled to get her words out in between her tears. "I'm so sowwy Ruby. Please don't be angry!"
"Awh, you're a sweetie! Of course I'm not angry! But please, remember what I've told you. Darcy's trying so hard to get Bri to stop crying. How are we going to visit Charlie and Brax like this?"
Alyssa ran to Brianna and gave her a giant hug. "I'm sowwy Bri Bri."
This didn't help at all. Instead, it made everything worse. Brianna was crying louder than ever.
"Darce, did you bring her bottle?" Ruby asked.
"No... I didn't think I would need it..." Darcy responded.
"Oh, I was thinking it could calm her down, but oh well..."
"I can go and grab it now?"
"Would you mind?"
"No, course not!"
"Awh, would you then?"
"Yeah, I'll go now."
"Thank you Darcy! You're a sweetie!"
