Clara creaked over to the door, raising her porcelain arm and putting it between the slight crack in the door pushing it open just enough for her to slip out. Listening for the two men, she started moving when she heard them across the house. She walked around checking out the house, when she started to near the men and started listening to they're conversation trying to get a grip on her new owners home.They were talking about somebody named Kane, Clara got bored rather fast and made her way back to Tori's bedroom settling down in just about the same spot she was in before but a little farther left. Now it was painfully silent in Tori's room so Clara just had to listen to the animals outside make a ratchet to keep herself occupied.

The sun rose from the horizon, shining its bright rays through the blinds brightening Tori's medium sized room. Clara could hear the chirping from outside the window, but the loud low rumbling from outside scared her out of her mind. Tori grunted as she sat up rubbing her eyes and taking off her bonnet revealing a mass of knotted kinky curls. Standing up walking to the window pulling up the blinds revealing a big blue bird that was terrifying and it was making that terrifying noise. Tori picked up Clara and walked out of the room and walked to the kitchen looking at the older men who both raised an eyebrow at her.

"The Cassowary's back and I'm going back to sleep." Her raspy voice muttered as she groaned. The grown men laughed as Tori placed Clara on the counter and walked back to her room going back to sleep. RINGGGGGG RINNGGGGGG RINNGGGGGGGG!!

"Hello, this is Jayden."

"Oh Hello, Kane!"

"Ah yes we would love to meet with you!"

"Okay, Goodbye Kane!"

Jayden smiled and turned to Mac as they started to talk about their date with Kane as they walked out of the kitchen to their bedroom. Clara was left in the kitchen for four long hours forced to listen to Cassowary outside of the house for that entire time. After those agonizing hours Tori finally came out yawning pulling a pick through her hair untangling her curls. She was dressed in a blue tank top, fingerless blue gloves, jean shorts and black flats. Picking up a piece of bread and putting it onto the toaster she sat down in front of Clara and started fiddling with Clara's dress to pass the time. The toaster popped up, Tori got up and took it out spreading vegemite on the toast. She bit into it looking at the wall sighing as the Cassowary started making noise again. Tori picked up Clara and walked back to her room.
