Michaela woke up the next morning feeling great she got to go over to her friend house the night before and she had such a great time. It was a Saturday and that meant that she got to spend the whole day with Lu because Marc was over at his fathers for the weekend and it was a girls weekend now nothing could go wrong today. Mike went out into the living room and saw that Lu was still sleeping so she went over and turned on the TV to watch some cartoons it was around 8:00 she knew Lu would wake up soon and they would go out to breakfast and then after that they would go to the park if it was nice or maybe to the science museum because that was the subject that interested Mike the most and they were learning about planets and the museum had a section devoted to planets. Just then Lu had woken up.

"Hey Mike, how are you today do you have any idea of what you want to do today?"

"I was thinking maybe after we go to breakfast we can go to the museum and look at the planets and they have a new section there for awhile our teacher told us about it has to do with the human body it's called grossology"

(note: the grossology is from my science museum they had it for awhile it has all to do about the human body and it's for kids and adults kids like it a lot because you get to do gross things and learn so this is actually something I didn't make it up)

"Oh that sounds like fun what do you do there?"

"Well the teacher said you can smell orders and guess what they are you can look in a big huge ear you can walk through it, there's some things about buger....."

"Oh ok yeah lets do that after we eat cause it sounds lots of fun let me go get ready why don't you go down to the mailbox and see what we got in the mail"

"Ok"

When Mike came back up she didn't look as happy as she was she went into Lu's room and handed her the pile of envelopes.

"What's wrong you were so happy when you went down now it looks like something horrid has happened?"

"Look at the to letter Lu, it's from my aunt and uncles house what do you think they want you don't think they want me back do you?"

"Even if they did I wouldn't let them have you you're not going back to them and that's not what they probably want lets open the letter together and find out what it says ok."

In the letter it read: Dear Lu,

We are very glad that you took Michaela off our hands for us as you know she was very trying. We will be in town for the week and would like to know if we could stay at your place being family and all we know you won't object so we will be in on Monday and we will be going on Friday thank you so much for your hospitably and there is no need to call to confirm because we are driving down and will be gone by the time you get this letter thanks again

Meg

"Well then let's not worry about it now you finish getting ready and let's go out to breakfast and then to the museum ok?"

"Ok"

At breakfast Lu could see that Mike was not her usually self instead it seemed as if she was like when she first go there very quite and withdrawn Lu tried to make her happy she made some jokes but it was not working they went to the museum and the fun they might have had didn't happen not even the grossology was enough to make her happy and she was waiting for this for a long time. As they drove home Mike just stared out the window. Lu was worried she couldn't tell Dot that she couldn't stay but what was she going to do with Mike while they were there. When they got home Mike went to her room and closed the door she didn't come out even for dinner. Lu went in at night she wanted to talk with her before Mike's aunt and uncle came.

"Mike can I come in?"

"Sure"

"Mike I know that your worried about your aunt and uncle coming but you don't need to worry half the time you'll be at school and at my work and who knows the only time will see them is when they get home at night and maybe not even then because you'll be in bed"

"I don't think that is going to happen Aunt Meg does not like staying out late so there probably be in by 7."

"Well that won't be so bad well have Marc here and I'll be here and you know what since they'll be here we'll have to share a room so you can be close by me all the time you don't have to worry I won't leave you alone with them ok."

"Ok, Lu I'm tried now I think I'll go to bed see you in the morning

Monday Evening

There was a knock at the door Mike looked up from her spelling Lu was in the kitchen fixing noodles Marc got up and answered the door it was aunt Meg and Uncle Joe Mike went into the kitchen with Lu.

"Hi, Marc said you must be Meg and Joe"

"Yes we are, are you just going to stand there all night or are you going to invite us in Meg said"

"Oh yeah come on in here let me take your bags, Mom Meg and Joe are here"

"Oh hi Meg you're just in time for dinner I hope you like goulash and Mike is making garlic bread"

"Mike? Whose Mike Joe Asked?"

"Oh Michaela, we call her Mike for short"

"Well we were never into calling her that it was always Michaela to us"

"Well we call her that too it's just a little pet name she likes it"

"So where is she I know when she was living with us she would at least come out and greet the guest guess your not teaching her manners?"

Lu held her tongue at that she didn't want to get off on a bad start Michaela popped her head from behind the counter.

"Here I am Aunt Meg how are you today did you have a good trip"

"As well as can be accepted it was such a long car ride if we had known we would have not come"

Michaela was thinking she wished they had never come either but of course she didn't say so out loud.

"Mike why don't you set the table and Marc you can show Meg and Joe were they are going to sleep"

"Ok mom right this way let me show you around this is the bathroom and right here is the closet we keep the towels and extra blankets if you need any over here is my room and this is Michaela's room and this is where you'll be staying this is my mom's room hope you like it."

"Oh how nice, Meg said, I'm sure we can survive this for the week it is a little smaller then were use to but that's ok were just going to freshen up a bit will be out in a little while thank you Marc"
