"Nicky!" Red says as she strokes her daughter's hair in an attempt to get her out of her deep sleep. "It's time to wake up, babushka."
Nicky just mumbled. Red immediately opened the curtains of her bedroom allowing light to dominate the space.
"Ma! Don't do this!" Nicky whimpered. Her mother knew exactly how to ruin her precious sleep.
"You have to get ready for school, come on! No more laziness, get up!" Red slapped Nicky on the butt. "I want to see you ready for breakfast in 15 minutes," she said as she left the room and headed down to the kitchen.
Nicky was still drowsy, she just grabbed her cell phone and distracted herself hoping it would make her sleep go away.
It didn't work, she fell asleep again.
10 minutes later*
"NICKY! MOMMY SAID GET UP" Tricia screamed as she jumped over her older sister.
"GET OUT OF ME" Nicky screamed pushing Tricia who fell to the ground.
"OW! You didn't have to do this. Why you have to be like that?" Tricia said with a grumpy face and and quickly ran into the kitchen reporting Nicky to her mother.
Nicky finally got up and began to get ready. Mornings were like enemies to the teenager. She lazily choses her clothes for the day, applies her mascara and goes down to the kitchen.
Red stared at Nicky, her face all crumpled with sleep, sitting waiting for her breakfast. "I can tell you didn't even wash your face. And your hair still needs to be brushed, Nicky." She set the plate with scrambled eggs in front of her girl.
"I like it that way," Nicky said as she ate.
"You look like a lion," Tricia said. The girl was only 8 years old and knew exactly how to irritate her sister.
"And you look like a pigeon with braids!"
"Okaay... Tricia I want you to go pack your books and brush your teeth!" Red ordered her younger daughter and then turned her eyes to Nicky. "What time did you go to sleep last night Nicky?"
"I don't remember," Nicky answered as she yawned. She finished her lunch and took the plate to the sink.
"Wash it!" Red demanded. "And that's not going to happen again, summer is over and I don't want you waking up like that every day. I know how troublesome you can be when you're in a bad mood."
Nicky was 13 years old. Teenage life had begun and she couldn't handle her mood swings, neither could Red.
Rolling her eyes, Nicky replied. "I know ma!" She finished washing her plate and went upstairs to brush her teeth.

"I'm ready!" Tricia said as she walked downstairs to find her mother. "Nicky hurry up, I want to see my friends!" the younger one shouted to her sister.
"Shut up, I'm coming," Nicky replied angrily as he walked down the stairs.
"Language Nicky!" Red snapped.
Red knew how to handle her little teenage. But she couldn't hide how much Nicky's antics amused her.
In the car, Red drove her daughters to school. "Are you excited for school, Trish?" she asked.
"I'm super excited! Mercy said that stupid geography teacher left school." Tricia said excitedly in the backseat.
"What about you Nicky?" Red said glancing quickly at Nicky who was in the passenger seat.
Nicky was steeped in her music. Earphones, and loud music. She didn't even hear her mother's question.
Red pulled the earphones out of Nicky's ears.
"Don't do it!" Nicky whimpered.
"You will end up blowing your eardrums with this loud music, and I'm talking to you." Red said with a strict voice. "Are you excited for school?"
"Yeah, whatever." Nicky rolled her eyes and went back to her music.
Arriving at Tricia's school, Red stopped the car and said goodbye to her little one.
"Give me a kiss." Red said while pouting for her daughter. Tricia kissed her mother and quickly got out of the car and ran towards her friends.
"Have a good day, baby!" Red yelled at Tricia in the car and started driving Nicky to school.
The journey wasn't long. But certainly, very quiet. This was one of the things Red hated in having a teenage daughter. She hated to think that little Tricia would become another one soon.
Arriving at Nicky's school, the young girl keeps her headphones inside her backpack and prepares to get out of the car.
"Hey, hey," Red said holding Nicky so she wouldn't get out of the car. "Where's my kiss?"
"Eww," Nicky looked at his mother in disapproval. "I'm not a baby!"
"You're my baby! Come here." Red caught Nicky's face and gave her a forced kiss, leaving the girl's cheeks stained with her lipstick.
"MA! Stop it!" Nicky whined, wiping the lipstick mark off hercheek. "Goodbye." She said as she got out of the car.
"I love you." Red said laughing. She was used to her daughter's little attitude, and amused by it. She promised herself she wouldn't miss an opportunity to embarrass her.
"Have a nice day at school sweetie," Red said looking Nicky through the car window. Nicky ignored her and went to Alex and Lorna, who waved to Red.
Red waved back, waited for her daughter to enter school, and then started driving back home. Everything was back to normal. Classes returned, and as a consequence, the movement in her market increased. It would be a long day.
