Jessie's POV
I was upstairs picking out my clothes and I heard the call of Abygail and the kids saying goodbye. I smiled. I thought it was wonderful that Abygail was here and getting along with the kids but it kinda seemed to me that she was trying to take my job away from me, just like Angela, Agatha's sister, had tried to a few months ago.
'No," I said to myself. 'Abygail would never do that to me. Would she?' I asked myself.
I shook the thought out of my head and continued picking out my clothes. I had picked out a green dress and my favourite pair of tan cowgirl boots. I curled my hair and got my favourite pair of black hoop earrings with the matching necklace and bracelet. I set out my tan fringe purse on my bed and headed downstairs to see Bertram.
" Good morning Bertram!" I said as I reached the living room.
"What's so good about it?" he asked me, with depressed look on his face.
"Aw. What's wrong Bertram?" I asked sitting on the couch beside him. "Did another internet girl stand you up?"
"No!" he said, giving me a slight glare. "I was up all night thinking that my job is miserable because of those monsters."
"Oh Bertram. It's not polite to call the kids monsters!" I said, standing up.
"Well, I was also thinking," he said getting up to follow me into the kitchen. "That maybe, that sister of yours would maybe consider being my partner in clean up. Kinda like Angela but without the evil part."
I sighed.
"What?" Bertram asked me.
"Well, to be honest, I thought Abygail was kinda turning into Angela, stealing my job and all." I said, grabbing a ripe banana from the bowl.
"What!" Bertram exclaimed with surprise as we walked out of the kitchen.
"It's just a theory Bertram. I never said that's what she's doing. She's just visiting and she'll be gone in a week and a half. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to the park to try to finish my book in peace." I said as I took my banana upstairs and grabbed my purse containing my banana, book and money.
"OK. I'll see ya later Jessie!" Bertram said when I came back downstairs and got into the elevator.
"Bye Bertram. Don't forget to vacuum the kid's rooms while we're gone!" I said as the doors closed. Even though the doors were almost shut, it didn't conceal Bertram's giant, whiny sigh.
