“ Camila!!! Camila!!. Are you still sleeping in that room? Mary!” Mary comes running in to the sitting room “ yes mum, you called” Mary said to her mum “ where is Camila?” She asked and Mary look at the room “ she’s still sleeping mum, I woke her up but she shunned me away” Mary explained and their mum make her way to Camila’s room, She open the door and berg in to the room. “ Camila!!!” she yelled and Camila sprang up from the bed looking terrified.

“ you finally decide to wake up right? I have been calling you since but you ignored me right?” Mum yelled and Camila cover her ears “ You are shouting mum, it’s too early” Camila said and her mum pick up a pillow and throw it at her but Camila Dodge it and run inside the bathroom. “ This girl will always make me shout every morning. Meet me in the kitchen when you are done taking your bath. Your sister always wake up early and help with the house chores but you, you Camila always sleep and wake up whenever you like. Can’t you learn from your Sister? And make sure you dress the bed before coming out of this room” Her mum said and walk out of the room.

Every morning in The Anthony’s house is always like that, That was Mrs Helen Anthony shouting at her second daughter, Camila.. Mr Anthony who is sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper raise up his head and look at his wife coming out of Camila’s room mumbling some words. “ Why are you always shouting on that little girl every morning?” He said and Helen pause then she turn back and face her husband. “ what did you said?” she asked pretending not to have heard what he said. Mr Anthony drop the newspaper on the table and sigh.

“ Camila is just a little girl but all you do every morning is to about at her. Can’t you talk to her the way you always speak to Mary?” Mr Anthony said and Helen smile. She walk closer to him and pick up the newspaper “ you know who Camila is, and besides, she’s not a little girl like you always say. Camila is a teenager for Goodness sake, she don’t like doing anything” Helen said and open the newspaper, “ I know but you should take things easy with her. Don’t you fear it will affect her ?” He asked and Helen sigh, she drop the newspaper and look at Mr. Anthony “ That girl is trouble, I have many things to do in the kitchen Honey” She said smiling and go to the kitchen.

Few minutes later, Camila comes out of her room and smile seeing her Dad in the sitting room “ Good morning Dad” she walk closer to her dad and peck him on the cheek. “ Here is my little girl. Hope you slept well?” He asked touching her face and Camila node her head. “ yes Dad, and….”

“ Your sister is waiting for you, Camila. Don’t you want to go to school today?” Her mum interrupt her from the kitchen door and Camila quickly put on her sneakers and go to the kitchen. “ Good morning mum” She greeted and she sit on the dining table close to Mary, her sister. “ Here, eat your breakfast and go to school” Helen passed a plate of scrambled eggs and a cup of tea to her. Camila gulp down everything within a blink of an eye leaving Helen and Mary staring at her in bewilderment.
