28 | The Covert Labyrinth
Toby, Liam, Vittoria, Mason, Allegra and I accidentally gathered in muffin's messy room which was currently getting tidied by the supermodel.
"Alli." Vittoria whined. "You've got a hand broken. Stop doing this."
"Oh then who's going to do it?" She said in a mom tone, holding up a curling iron lying near the bathroom mat. "How can one live in such a messy space! I can't even breathe. Jesus!" She jerked open a drawer, nearly placing it where it belonged.
