Living with the truth

Chapter 1 : Normal life

"Jessica, Kim! Get up or you'll be late for school!" Hearing that, Kim Baker pushed herself out of bed and walked over to the identical bed on the other side of the room. "Jessie, come on. Today we're starting our science project!" She pushed her older by two minutes twin sister. "I'm up!" Jessica sighed swinging her legs out from under the covers and pushing her red hair out from her eyes. "Kids! Breakfast is ready!" Kate Baker shouted up the stairs. "Come on, or Henry might take our pancakes again!" Jessica said as they rushed down the stairs, hand in hand.

When they got downstairs they took their normal seats – Jessica on the end, and Kim between her and Jake. Breakfast was the usual chaos. Today Nigel and Kyle decided Gunner could sit at the table too, or on it as it turned out. Jessica, Kim and Mark were sat in the car waiting for the other elementary school kids – Jake and Mike. After a long wait, Jake, Mike and Tom got in the car. " Gosh you guys are inconsiderate!" Kim tutted.

"Um, like how?" Mike asked, dumbfounded. "Well we would like to get to school and you two just take your time. Oh and by the way – like how is very bad grammar!"

Jessica exclaimed. "Whatever dude." Jake sighed. "Excuse me I am not your dude! I really wish I wasn't even your relation. I mean, you two talk like you haven't even got an education, you losers!" Kim shouted. "Us? Losers? You guys wouldn't know cool if I hit you round the back of the head with it!" Jake smirked. "Oh so a bit like you and manners then!" Jessica muttered. "Enough of that guys! You're at school now! And please don't try to kill each other!" Tom sighed. " Okay Dad. Bye!" Mark called.

"Later!" Shouted Mike as he slammed the door shut. Everyone went their own way, towards their own classes.

Jessica and Kim took their regular seats (front centre of course) when they realized the woman sitting at their teacher's desk wasn't their teacher. "Hey, you're not Miss Wykes!" One kid called out. "Duh!" Kim muttered to a sniggering Jessica.

"Thank you for noticing! My name's Mrs Billson, and I'll be teaching you today as Miss Wykes is ill." The tall, tanned skinned woman smiled.

Kim put her hand up. "Yes, the girl with blonde hair?"

Kim sighed. "It's Kim. Does this mean we won't be starting our science project?" Mrs Billson smiled. "Yes you'll all be glad to hear that the science project will be postponed until Miss Wykes is back with us." Whoops of relief filled the class but Kim and Jessica frowned. "Excuse me Miss Billson, but you're encouraging the class that science holds no interest." Jessica tutted. "Which it does!" Kim jumped in.

"Hey Kids! How was your day?" Tom asked as everyone trooped into the car. "Good." Answered Mark.

"I got in a fight!" Mike exclaimed. "God Mike! Who with?"

Tom asked concerned. "A fifth grader." Mike shrugged. "Oh my gosh are you okay?"

"Is he okay? He totally kicked the dude's ass!" Jake laughed. "Well I'm guessing that made your day too Jake. Jessie, Kim did you have a good day?" Tom asked turning to face them. "No!" They replied in unison. "Oh why?"

"Miss Billson is a narcissist, and I have no idea how she could get the grades to become a teacher!" Kim exclaimed. "Guys, I thought your Mom told you not to correct the teachers!" Tom frowned. "We didn't. We just pointed out her mistakes, then she made more, so we also corrected those mistakes and still she is completely clueless, so I told her she was an idiotic misanthrope." Jessica explained. Jake laughed "God I knew there was some cool in you guys, and it looks like it's been found!"

As they entered the house, everyone else was gathered round the seating area. Nigel and Kyle were fighting over who sat on the beanbag, then kept pushing each other off it, Nora, Charlie and Sarah were on one couch, Henry and Lorraine on another. Kate looked worried. "Um kids, I think you should sit down."
