It was about 2.45pm when Michaela, Allison and Janette reached Michaela's house. Not good, 2.45 was the time the twins, Lola and Liley finished there drawing class, which means that they will be arriving any minute now. Michaela and her friends quickly threw the laundry into the washing machine and went up the her room.
When she reached her room, she reached out into the dark searching for the light switch, and flipped it on. While grabbing her math textbooks, she pushed the 'Power' button on the AC remote while Allison and Janette plugged in Allison's iPod onto the player. In a second, the stereo started blasting Justin Bieber's world-famous song, Baby. The three girls flopped onto Michaela's pink faux fur carpet, with their humongous Algebra textbooks, and a handful of pens and highlighters.
Just a few minutes later, the front door of the house banged open. The sound of two 6 year olds singing some nursery rhyme at the top of their lungs filled the entire living room. Ahh, Liley and Lola were home.
"MICHAAAELAAAA!" Liley wailed from all the way downstairs. "I WANT LUUUNCHH!"
"The twins?" Allison asked with a knowing look.
"Of course." Michaela said, sarcastically. "BE RIGHT DOWN!" she yelled back downstairs.
Michaela turned down the volume of her stereo and raced downstairs. As soon as she stepped onto the wooden floor of the living room, Liley and Lola bombarded her with the usual set of questions. "Where have you been?" "What have you been doing?" "Can we eat lunch?" "Are your friends here?" "Can we play dolls?"
Michaela sighed. "Hurry up, tell me what you want to eat. I need to go back to study."
"Okay!" Lola and Liley cheerfully said. "We want burgers!" said Lola slamming her tiny fists onto the also, wooden dining table.
"Nooo, i want a ham and cheese sandwich!" Liley argued folding her arms across her chest.
Before they could argue some more, Michaela said "Fine, Lola you can get the burger from last night, and Liley, go get the ham and cheese, I'll make you a sandwich."
Liley and Lola skipped their way to the tiny refridgerator in the kitchen as Michaela went to the cupboard and pulled out a bag of bread and sliced them the way Liley liked them-shaped like a 'Mickey Mouse'. Again, she sighed. After putting the bread into the toaster, Lola came back with a paper bag with burgers inside.
"Go get your plates Lola and Liley." Michaela ordered. She put the burger into the microwave and hit the 'On' button. "When it's done just go get the toast and burger, okay?"
"Okey dokey, Michaela!" They answered.
Michaela took a bag of chocolate-chip cookies and a jar of orange juice on the way back to her room. She mentally prepared herself for another 3 hours of Algebra.
At around 7.00 that night, Allison and Janette decided to spend the night over at Michaela's. They rang up their parents asking for them to bring their toothbrushes and sleeping bags. They spent the rest of the night doing each other's nails, singing along to Justin Bieber, and of course, fantasizing about Justin.
