The next morning Ronnie walked into the kitchen where Glenda, already up, was giving Amy a feed.
- 'Morning darling where's Jack?'Glenda asked while whiping Amy's mouth off.
- 'We have an early delivery at the club so he already went over, he had to do some more stuff overthere'Ronnie said taking a bite of toast that Glenda already had made and was on a plate on the table.
- 'Are the girls up yet?'Glenda said giving Amy a little piece of toast to chew on.
- 'Yes, they both are, they already had a run in with eachother at the shower, Roxy wanted to go and threw Robbie out, so i got Roxy out cause i don't want Robbie to be late for school'Ronnie said sighing.
- 'Sisterly rivalry'Glenda said smiling making funny faces at Amy who was giggling at her nan.
- 'Pfff believe me mum, Roxy never grows up and Robbie never gives in'Ronnie said handing Amy her little bottle of juice.
- 'You both had arguments and use to bicker all the time when you were younger darling'Glenda said stroking her hand across Ronnie's back for comfort.
- 'Yes i know but never like they do all the time, and once i jump in, they conspire at me mum' Ronnie said. At that moment, Ronnie and Glenda both looked up, cause of, slamming of the doors upstairs and yelling of the girls.
- 'Let me go up, why don't you stay with Amy alright'Glenda said getting of her chair.
- 'Ok be my guest' Ronnie said 'Oh and mum, physical assault is allowed'.
Glenda smiled and walked up the stairs where she heard her two other girls getting at eachothers throat. When she got up Roxy was pounding on Robbie's door.
- 'Robbie if you don't let me in i'm gonna break this door open and after i do that you're gonna be very sorry'Roxy was yelling.
- 'Oi what is going on here, what's with all the shouting and slamming doors, what are you, a couple of 5 year olds?'Glenda said walking up to Roxy.
- 'Mum, she's being a total brat, she nicked one of my shirts when i was just using the toilet'Roxy said'i didn't give that little sneak permission to come in my room and nick it from me'.
- 'Robin darling, could you open this door please'Glenda said calmly.
- 'Mum being nice doesn't work with her anymore, Robbie get out of your room now!'Roxy said again pounding on the door trying to get the lock open.
- 'No, i'm not, i know you blondie,mum i'm not getting out while she's still there, so i'm just getting dressed i see you in a bit yeah'Robbie said from her room, getting herself dressed.
- 'You come out now little brat, i mean it Robbie! 'Roxy said her hands on her hips.
- 'Put a sock in it Rox, what happened since yesterday, when you were uh-oh-ah-ing and feeling sick and whining, why don't you just go take that shower you were so eager about earlier, almost gagged me for it'Robbie yelled back at her older sister.
- 'Just put a lit on it will ya loudmouth!'Roxy yelled back. Glenda pushed Roxy aside.
- 'Robin i want you to open the door now, i wanna see if you're really dressed and i want you downstairs for breakfast, you're gonna be late for school darling'Glenda said knocking on the door.
- 'I'm already done, just keep that tart away from me yeah'Robbie said then getting the lock of her door and opening it. Just as she wanted to get out, Roxy jumped in front of Glenda and grabbed Robbie by her neck.
- 'Tart?'Roxy said loud, just as Ronnie, who was carrying Amy, came up to see why it was taking her mum so long, 'I'm gonna show you tart' Roxy slapped her sister but received one back from Robbie then Robbie wanted to push Roxy away who was trying to get the shirt off of her babysister.
Ronnie handed Amy over to Glenda and jumped in and grabbed them both by their neck and and said"Alright girls playtime's over, now why don't you go take your shower Roxy, and you little bigmouth, go take your sisters shirt off and put it neatly back in her room, and i mean really neatly!'
- 'Ronnie she..'Roxy said but Glenda put her hand on Roxy's mouth 'Do as your sister says Roxanne and go take your shower'giving Roxy a little soft slap on her bum.
Roxy looked angry at Robbie and gave her the 'i'm not done with you' look. Robbie also gave that look back and then walked into her room.
- 'Come on mum'Ronnie said'let's have ourselves another coffee'.
- 'But what if they…'Glenda said wanting to say that if they went downstairs they would immediately be at eachothers throath again.
- 'If i hear anything not in order mum, "i'll come up and they better hide"'Ronnie said loud so that Roxy and Robbie had heard it.
They walked down and back to the kitchen again for another cup of coffee.

A couple minutes later Robbie came down, threw her bag in a corner of the hallway and walked into the kitchen, and stood next to Ronnie.
- 'Mum do you know where my trainers are, you know the white with purple ones?'Robbie asked Ronnie who put her arm around her.
- 'Ehm, i don't know my sweet, there probably somewhere in that mess called 'your room'Ronnie said grinning at Robbie.
- 'Not funny mum, i have no shoes to wear now'Robbie pouted a bit.
- 'Oh poor baby 'Ronnie said putting her arms around Robbie squeezing her really tight as if she meant it'i realy feel sorry for you, hello, we drove 3 times Saturday to only get your stuff here babe, and i've seen your black ones in the livingroom under the table, go put them on then'.
Robbie got out of Ronnie's arms not amused.
- 'Mum there not my white and purple ones now are they, i'm looking for the high ones'Robbie said slamming the fridge door out of frustration.
- 'Oi little miss temper go upstairs just like Ronnie said and go and look up there!'Glenda said giving Robbie a serious look.
- 'Your white and purple ones are in my room babysis, "Amy they're not yours they're your little auntie Robbie's and no you can't wear them to nursery!"'Roxy said smiling, who had been hearing it from walking to the kitchen.
- 'This is what i mean mum, as if i'm the only one to 'borrow'stuff , she should stay out of my room!'Robbie said making a angry face at Roxy and while passing she gave her a little slap on the arm, then she walked out of the kitchen to get upstairs again.
- 'Oh ehm Ron, about tonight, i'm not gonna be at this dinner alright'Roxy said buttering her toast.
- 'Oh, why not?'Glenda asked putting the paper, she was reading, down.
- 'Well it's not really my thing there, it sounds more like a familynight, you know with the kids and all'Roxy said while Ronnie started laughing.
- 'First of all you are family, somehow anyway, and what about Amy?'Ronnie then asked.
- 'Well you can take her, no problem, it's just that Christian wants a night out and tonight Syed is with his family, so i don't wanna let him down'Roxy said taking a bite.
- 'No let us down that's easier for your conscience right Roxy'Ronnie said looking at Roxy.
- 'Sorry, i didn't meant it like i said it'Roxy said'It's just his only night maybe and i don't wanna play games with the kids'.
- 'You're so full of it'Ronnie sighed when the doorbell rang 'saved by the bell'.
Ronnie walked over to the door, opened it and saw Robbie's friends out there waiting.
- 'Morning kids, sorry she's late again, you know there's always drama in this house'Ronnie said grinning.
- 'Not much different at our house Ronnie'Whitney said smiling 'so are you all coming tonight over at Max's?'
- 'Yeah, we'll be there'Ronnie said looking behind her were Robbie was coming down.
- 'Found them babe?'Ronnie asked getting Robbie's bag out of the corner.
- 'Yeah, oh let me get my lunchbag yeah'Robbie said'Hi guys!' she waved at her friends while walking to the kitchen.
- 'So Jay, Zsa Zsa still sick then?'Ronnie asked.
- 'No she's also late'Jay smiled'she's gonna meet us up probably'.
Robbie walked back with her lunch and put it in her bag.
- 'Bye mum'Robbie said giving Ronnie a kiss on the cheek. Ronnie was a bit surprised with all her friends there.
- 'Alright my little love, i'll see you after school, gimme a call when you're home yeah'Ronnie said, and also said goodbye to the kids.
- 'Mum!'Robbie said a little embarrassed being called her mums 'little love' in front of her friends.
- 'What?'Ronnie said not immediately knowing what Robbie meant.
- 'Forget it i'll see you later yeah'Robbie said walking outside when Lauren said 'Common my little love let's see if Zsa is finally ready'.
Ronnie closed the door again grinning when she figured out what Robbie meant.

Later at the bookies Glenda was cleaning some tables and Carol was helping a customer. Glenda walked back to the counter and put the cleaninggear away.
- 'So are you all coming tonight then?'Carol asked giving the customer his change back.
- 'Yeah except Roxanne, she's going out with Christian, you know have a night out'Glenda said.
- 'Good choice, i wish i could have a night out'Carol said.
- 'So what's stopping you then?'Glenda asked looking at another customer walking in.
- 'Ehm well there's a house full of kids, i don't know, it just never comes of it, and then i don't always want to go when Bianca is going, you know it's a different generation'Carol said.
- 'Different generation, Carol you may think you are 'slightly older' but i'm not letting my age come in the way of having a good time' Glenda said winking at some young lad that came in.
- 'Yeah well i'm a grandmother Glenda, i can't hang around a bar waiting till someone comes and picks me up'Carol said not approving of Glenda's thoughts.
- 'I'm a grandmother too, that's no excuse Carol, and we don't wait till 'something good comes along'we have a good time and pick them ourselves' Glenda said putting her arm around Carol
'don't you worry, we're gonna have this dinner toinght with our "younger generation" of children and then tomorrownight these 'still attractive,maybe a tat older women'go and have a good time, what do you say?'
- 'I don't know Glenda'Carol said.
- 'Are you alive Carol and here to make some fun, or are you already dead but just still breathing?'Glenda said.
Carol said nothing and just looked at Glenda.
- 'Tomorrow i have too…'Carol said.
- 'Booooring! My youngest would say'Glenda said'you're boring Carol, i never thought that of you the first time i saw you'.
- 'Alright, alright, i'm in, and where do we go then, not the Vic alright'Carol said looking at Glenda who sighed at Carol for being so negative all the time, mostly on herself.
- 'No ofcourse not the Vic, we go to the R&R have a little drinking and dancing'Glenda said showing a little of her dancemoves.
Carol's face turned into a smile and she started laughing at her crazy friend.

In the afternoon, when the kids had finished school they were on their way home.
When they walked by the R&R Robbie said to Peter: 'Oh guess what, Jack thinks i can spin alright and maybe if i practise a little more i can spin one night at the club'.
- 'Yeah right like he's gonna let someone underaged spin at his club'Lucy said who was walking behind them with Whitney.
- 'Oh Jack wouldn't lie to her about that'Whitney said helping her friend.
- 'That's right, Jack wouldn't lie to me about that, and he said in the future, not like next week or so'Robbie said pissed that Lucy always had a negative vibe with her.
- 'He just says what you want to hear, by the time you 're old enough, you forgot about it probably'Lucy said with a vicious smile.
- 'Luce!'Peter said, he didn't like it when his sister was teasing or tormenting someone, and knowing Lucy it was never really teasing it was just cause she was always jealous or didn't like anyone else in her brothers spotlight other then her.
- 'Jack is really honest with me, what do you know about it, were you there, no i don't think so, but if you wanna come into the club and ask him maybe Luce, be my guest?'Robbie then said, she knew that Jack or Ronnie would be there.
- 'Forget it'Lucy said and walked on. The others laughed.
- 'Sometimes i would really wanna strangle her, i can't understand how you and her are twins, i mean, i think you got her heart too when you were born 'Robbie said looking at Peter who shyly looked back.
- 'Yeah she's something else'Peter said as they walked into Bridgestreet.
- 'You wanna come have a drink Ro?'ZsaZsa said who had moved forward in the group, she had been walking home with Leon, Jay and Fatboy and Lauren.
- 'I'm still grounded Zsa just like you i pressume, and besides Phil hasn't told me i'm welcome again yet, and i rather not go there, he already went mental Sunday when he came by'Robbie said pretending to be Phil by going mental on ZsaZsa.
- 'Yeah and we have to do homework before we have the dinner tonight remember Robs'Lauren said.
- 'Yeah also, i already don't have much time, mum wants me to clean my room, and really fold my clothes and stuff, so ignoring that isn't an option cause i'm already in as much trouble as i can possibly be or can handle'Robbie said as the reached Albert Square.
Fatboy, Leon, Lucy and Jay all said goodbye and left to gohome.
- 'I hope this house-arrest is over soon'Peter said 'wanna see more of you'.
- 'Yeah i know what you mean'Robbie said'and i don't even know for how long í'm grounded, and i don't know what's gonna happen at the parentsnight, hope they're not gonna talk about the bunking off' .
- 'Well at least we're all in that together aren 't we?'Whitney said laughing.
- 'Ah can't believe we're not gonna be able to go out until 2011'Robbie said smiling.
- 'Let's just hope Ronnie goes soft on you again'Peter said stroking his hand through Robbie's hair and putting his arms around her.
- ''Yeah like, ehm…always'Whitney said highfiving Lauren and ZsaZsa.
- 'Ehm Girls Ronnie doesn't let me of the hook that easy right, Whit, you have it the easiest you're always of the hook before your housearrest ends, so looking at it as you said a week on Monday, i pressume you're already of the hook by now, and Zsa, you absolutely drive Shirley crazy so your punishment would not last long, unless she listens to Phil'Robbie said laughing.
- 'Which she doesn't thank god'ZsaZsa said'I gotta go,Jane asked me to do a shift for couple of hours'.
- 'Alright you lot, i'm going home my room is waiting'Robbie said 'and you, i'll let Whit send you a text if we get a chance to sit outside alright mister'.
- 'Yeah alright i'll be sure to keep my phone close by'Peter said. Then Robbie pulled him close to give him a kiss.
- 'Whoooo' All the other girls said looking at the lovebirds Robbie and Peter.
