Ronnie Sat cuddled up with Jack on the sofa thoughts of what Alex had told her about Danny and Glenda being afriad to upset Alex in the past rushed in and out of her mind, She couldn't help but wonder why Glenda must have been so afraid of Alexandra's father to not dicipline Alex or to fight for custody, She also had very mixed feelings about Alexandra's revalation that Glenda used to protect her from Danny, on one hand she was pleased that Glenda had put herself in the firing line to protect her Little girl, thats the way it should have been but Ronnie also had a feeling of resentment that her Mother hadn't also done the same for her all those years ago.
Ronnie was soon snapped out her thoughts by ruptions coming from upstairs Ronnie looked up at the cealing.
"Oh it sounds like Alex is kicking off again, Jack said laughing, "I tell you what this little one want be getting away with behaving like this at her age" Jack said rubbing Ronnie tummy.
"I might go up and try and settle her down" Ronnie said jumping up off the sofa,
Jack grabbed hold of Ronnie's arm, "Its your Mums job not yours" Jack said.
"I want be long Jack, She opened up to me today" I just want to see if I can help"
Ronnie left Jacks flat and climbed upstairs to Glendas flat from outside she could hear Alex and Glenda having a screaming match and Amy crying after being woken up my all the noise. Ronnie Knocked loudley on the door.
Roxy opened the door of the flat and let Ronnie in,
"Welcome to Bratsville" Roxy said.
Whats the problem now Ronnie asked.
"Well Alex is the Problem what else" Roxy said pulling a face. "You know I accidently ruined some of her clothes well I gave her some money to replace them and Mum said she has to use it buy School uniform for Walford high"
Ronnie looked at Roxy "is that all" Ronnie said,
Alex and Glenda were in their Bedroom and Alex was hysterical by this time and Glenda was doing her best to calm her down.
"Look you go and Settle Amy and I'll help Mum with Alex" Ronnie said walking towards Glenda's bedroom.
Ronnie walked stieght into Alex and Glenda room without Knocking.
Alex was sat at the top off the bed with her arms folded and her legs crossed she was starting to cry out of pure anger and Glenda was stood hovering her.
"Whats all the noise" Ronnie said looking at Alex who took a deep breath when Ronnie entered the room and quickly wiped the tears away from her face.
"The whole of Walford can hear you shouting" Ronnie said sitting on the bed nest to Alex.
"She is behaving like spoilt little brat" Glenda declaeared putting her hands on her hips.
"No I'm not its Mum she being a selfish cow like she always is" Alex said screaming.
"All you are doing is upsetting yourself" Ronnie said calmley.
"I am not upset, I'm angry" Alex said grabbing hold of a pillow and lobbing it at Glenda.
"You are behaving like a two year old having a tantrum" Glenda said chucking the pillow back at Alex.
"Mum" Ronnie said to her Mother trying to stop her fueling Alexandra's bad behavior.
"Well you see if you can sort her out Ronnie, before I slap her legs" Glenda said storming out of the room.
"I hate you" Alex shouted after her Mother before Letting out a cuple of Little sobs.
Ronnie held her arms out and Alexandra fell into them ronnie hugged Alex close to her chest, stroking her hair, Ronnie mind filled with thoughts of Danielle and how much she yearned to held her own daughter like she was doing with her sister and Alex mind turned towards the safe arms of her Father and what was happening to him in prison. and they both were a great comforted for each other.
After a few moments alex said "I used to have a nice room and I could have want ever I wanted" Alex said sitting up and blowing her nose on the bed sheet.
"Oh Alex Yuck" Ronnie said looking at her younger sister.
"Its alright its Mums side of the bed" Alex said her sobs now turning into giggles.
"You know you have got to have a school uniform don't you" Ronnie said wiping Alex's damp cheeks with her hands.
"But Roxy ruined my clothes and said she would replace them and Mums took the Money for school uniform" Alex said in rather childish and whingy voice.
"Well you have other clothes Ronnie said calmley and Mum hasn't got money for new uniform at the moment"
Thats Mums fault not mine, Alex said folding her arms again.
Ronnie sat back and thought for a moment, Alex was far to spoilt and inmatiure to think of things from her Mothers point to view but she was very style conscious for a twelve year old so Ronnie decided to take another tact.
"Well I have an idea Ronnie said, Jack as a niece Abi she is a cuple of years older then you. I bet she as some old Walford high clothes that she as grown out of, I will text her and ask her, She isn't all that fashion conscious but that doesn't matter does it. Ronnie said reaching for her Phone.
"No! Alex said putting her hand other Ronnies Phone "wait I am not wearing someones old rejects" Alex took a deep breath and sighed I'll use the Money Roxy gave me for school Uniform"
Ronnie smiled and said "good girl" kissing Alex on the forehead.
even though Alex knew that she had been out smarted she didn't mind, She liked Ronnie and wanted to stay friends with her.
Ronnie came out of the bedroom and came into the living room she's fine about buying school uniform now" Ronnie said.
"What" said Glenda how did you manage that.
"Well after managing Roxy at that age Alex is breeze Ronnie said ruffling Roxy's hair.
The day to start school soon came around and Alex had chosen a pretty trendy take on the school unform Glenda had made her cooked breakfast to start the day.
"Why are you slaving over a hot stove for her Mum, she is so spoilt, she would have managed with cereal" Roxy was irrated by Alex being waited on hand and foot by Glenda.
Ronnie had arranged for Abi to call for her so she didn't have to go to school alone, As the girls walked though the square Abi looked alot bigger than Alex who was short in hieght and had a small frame, But Alex was very trendy and stylish looking. Abi couldn't help feeling slightley inadequate walking at the side of Alex.
