13 Years Later
After my bath I walked into the bedroom and found my brothers and sister playing pirates again, I rolled my eyes and sat on my bed "We have come for ye glass slippers" John said aiming a sword at my sister "You're crazy" I said shaking my head in amusement "Who be you to order me about? And call me girlie" Wendy snapped, they started to sword fight and I rested against the headboard. I noticed Nana staring out the window but I thought nothing of it until he started barking, the others ran to the window and opened it before sticking their heads out, the bird suddenly shot out of the clock chirping and they immediatly pulled back in "Oh no" I sighed grimly.
A few minutes Later
The other's were dancing around Aunt Milicant who looked both surprised and amused, we all clapped once they finished and they sat down beside me "Wendy's turn, she must tell a story" Michael said slightly pleading, Wendy stood up in front of us all and they started naming different pirates that they wanted her to talk about
"Hook" John exclaimed, for some strange reason the name 'Jimmy' echoed on my mind but I just ignored it and paid attention to the others "Pardon my soul, oh our children are educated these days" Auntie said rather dramatically, I rolled my eyes again "I'm afraid I'm not that educated at all, but I do know a thing about pirates" Wendy announced making Auntie gasp "My ambition is to write a novel in 3 parts about my adventures" she said excitedly "Adventures?" Auntie asked curiously
"I've yet to have them but they will be perfectly thrilling" she replied "My dear child, novelists are not highly thought of in society and there is nothing so difficult to marry as a novelist" Auntie told her, my eyes widened "Marry?" I asked in shock "But Aunt Wendy's not yet 14" Mother said also quite surprised at Auntie's statement
"Walk toward me dear so that I may appraise you" Auntie said, Wendy slowly walked towards her and we couldn't help but snicker at Wendy's slightly embarrassed expression, Father told us to be quiet but I couldn't help it "Turn around" Auntie instructed, Wendy turned around slowly and was also finding it hard to not laugh, it probably didn't help that she could hear and see us giggling aswell
"Yes it's just as I expected, Wendy possesses a woman's chin" Auntie announced smiling, Wendy touched her chin nervously and backed away "Have you not noticed? Observe her mouth, there hidden in the right hand corner. Is that a kiss?" Auntie asked, the boys gasped and my eyes widened "It might not be" I piped up, Auntie glanced at me and I suddenly felt slightly nervous
"Savana has it too" she gasped "Say what?" I asked, my voice came out strange and un-formal like those children I see on the street corner down the west side, they all gave me confused and warning looks that made me shuffle lower in my seat "Sorry" I said quietly "But what is it for?" Wendy asked in confusion, I groaned and flopped back in my seat "It is for the greatest adventure of all, they who find it have slipped in an out of heaven" Auntie said standing up
"Find what?" I asked now curious "The one the kiss belongs too" she replied, mum and dad both stood up from their seats with wide eyes "Our girls are women" Father said "Almost women" Auntie corrected, they sent us out and I hid behind the doorway with Wendy and my brothers
"They must spend less time with their brothers and more time with me, they must have their own rooms or they both share one with just those two, a young lady's room. George the daughter of a Clark cannot hope but marry a manager, you must attend more party's, make small talk with you're superiors at the bank, wit is very fashionable at the moment" Aunties voice said, I shook my head in disbelief and ran up the stairs.
