“Inaaaaaaaaa! Inaa! Ina,” I heard my little sister scream in my slumber. “Wake.
Up”.
“Go away its Saturday today”.
“Fine stay in bed but mama said we are going to see Marisa today and David is coming too”. Just like that I got up from bed. I love Marisa and David is my favorite person in the whole world after me of course.
I brushed my teeth and went down for breakfast. “Princess you are up early
today, it’s barely 9am”. “Papa am always up early”. “Not on Saturdays” He said
with a laugh. I rolled my eyes. “What do you want for breakfast” mama joy asked.
“Mmhhhh, I want pancakes and blueberry syrup” I beamed.
Mama joy was our nanny she had been with us ever since I was born mama
worked very hard sometimes her job require her to work even on weekends that was why mama joy was there to help. But as busy as mama was she always found time for us.
“Ina, since you were up early I want you to finsh up your breakfast quickly so that
we can go and meet Marisa and David at the park”.
“What about mama will she
meet us there papa”, Cora asked while putting a lose blond strand behind her ear.
Cora had my Granma’s green eyes and my mama’s blond hair while I had my
papa’s black hair and brown eyes I looked more like my papa than my mama.
“Yes princess she will”. When papa left for his room I asked Cora “Did u see mama in the morning”.
“Yes Ina I saw her I always wake up early” she bragged.
“David!” I screamed as we approached him and his mum at the park.
“Sunshine! I missed you” he said and hugged me. “Awwwwl these two” I heard Marisa say from behind us. “Marisa!” I beamed at her “Guess what I have for you kids” she said with a big smile on her face I knew it was chocolate she always brought it for us. “Chocolates!” Cora and I screamed at the same time “Keep it down kids” papa said to us.
We played at the park for another hour and then mama came and we played
together.
When I became tired I went and sat by myself. “Sunshine you tired”
“David you startled me” “You always say I startle you” “That’s because you do”.
“Okay I have something for you” “What is it” he pulled a book from behind him it
was his drawing book. Ever since we were little he always brought his drawing
book with him so that I could be the first one to see his drawings. “This flower is
very cute” “you think so” “I do” I said as I looked through his other drawings.
“You are becoming better and better soon you will be famous like mama and
Marisa” “Yes, sunshine I want to be as famous as mum and Claire he said with a dreamy look on his face”. David is really cute.
