The Reality Of Life(Part 2)

While Anna was packing her school bag she noticed something missing.Then it stuck her like a lightning bolt.She came running down the stairs frantically in search of a book.She wasn't one who would go haywire unnecssarily.But this time the situation was different,Anna had misplaced her History book of all things and there was going to be a quiz about the war between the French and the Dutch.Typical of Anna to misplace her book just before school starts."Bloody hell not again!This is wonderful just wonderful!"she cursed at herself.Then a thought struck her mind,she had remembered she was revising the chapter yesterday and that it had fell in between the space of her study table and the wall.And because Anna had been burning the midnight oil she was too tired and frankly too lazy to pick the book up.She frantically rushed upstairs only to find her mother standing in her path."Darling you ready yet.We need to leave soon?"her mother said in a surprisingly sweet tone."Yes ma',i just need to get a book for the quiz today"Anna said politely."Alright then be quick then I made breakfast for you and help me do one thing wake up your bloody sister and brother all they do is sleep all  day."her mother said with a slight tone of annoyance."Are you dropping me off or am I waking?Anna asked playfully."I think I will send you today,"her mother said."Oh thank god".Anna said with a sigh of relief."I don't think I am in the mood to walk today considering I have a football match and swimming practise,"she said to her mother.Her mother just smiled cheekily and walked down the stairs."Damn sidetracked again!"she thought to herself.She raced to her room ,she squeezed between the space separating the wall and the table.Anna ran down the stairs to the dining table in an attempt to quickly gulp down her breakfast.Just as Anna was about to take her last step down the stairs she remembered the favour her mother had asked.She fumbled up the stairs again and knocked on her sister's door"Wake up Amy!Wake up don't you have classes Mom is getting pissed you have better woken up by the time she sends me to school".Then she crept to her bothers room very slowly,she knew never to anger her brother in the morning.She knocked her bothers door and said"Alex don't you have college at 9.30 you better get up soon".She could hear him grunt while he tossed and turned under his sheets.''Finally I can go eat now",she thought to herself.
