Karen POV
I pull up to my place with Daff
K: welp...there it is...not the best place but yanno still home
Daff: look nice...how do all share a apartment?
K: *sigh* why does EVERYONE THINK we share just ONE
Daff: well because your music video...is set up like it
K: yeah well nah aha that wouldn't work for four grown ass women...yanno how some hotels have a door that leads to the other room? for like when families rent two rooms?
Daff: yes i know
K: well
I grab my purse, open the car and help her out
K: since we have that, barbie and harley share a room and gemma and i share...and by "share a room" i mean WE got the three bedroom, the younger sisters got the two bedroom
Daff: oh that's nice
K: we still hang out in one room to watch movies and stuff...we're sisters. If someone IS mad we shut the middle door is all. We work it out...anyway you can take the third bedroom
I open the door, we walk into Gemma and i's apartment and i lead her to the guest room
Daff: so where are your siblings
K: oh, no clue
Daff: :0
K: what?
Daff: you don't know?
K: nah, why would i need to?
Daff: well what if something happens?
K: they they can handle it...if it's really bad they'd call or something...i mean i know gemma's somewhere with shatter, harley should be closing up the bar early since it's a weekday and we're short staffed today...so maybe she'll turn up later-
*knock knock*
I hear a knock from the middle door
