Chapter 2: Me. The Giant Human Bowling Ball.

  "Mom! Dawn is talking to herself again!"my younger sister, Oni, yells.My mother walked down the stairs and started making some tea.

 She replied,"No yelling in the mornings, Sunflower, and eat some more honey bread, Sweetie, if you don't start eating more how is that boyfriend of yours... ummmm....Oh! Erick! Yes, Erick, even going to be able to hug you much less make out like you guys usually do. And don't even get me started on staying over at his house! I mean, you're nearly a pile of bones! How is he even going to be able t-"

 "OKAY! Mom! I'm eating, look see! I'm not a pile of sticks! I'm just chomping my way through all of this," I desperately start stuffing some apple pecan biscuits in my mouth and attempt to cut her off before she starts going into the 18+ stuff.

 "Well, Sweetheart, don't eat too much now. Lately you've been gaining a bit of fat around your middle and we wouldn't want you out of shape for the Exam",my mom said sweetly without looking up from the tea, "I mean, I know Erick loves you to the ocean and back but the beach is 5 minutes away. You shouldn't be stretching your luck by eating more."

  *Mental Face Palm* Okay getting some mixed messages here.

  "But you can eat as much as you want and I will still love you!" My father swoops in and kisses me on the head.

  At least my dad loves me.

  "Unless it gets to the point where I have to roll you around the city. In that case. You're on your own!" My dad runs off to hug my mom from behind.

 Wow. I feel so loved. I'm am not at all being sarcastic.

 *If you can't see the sarcasm radiating off of me. You're BLIND* (#_#)

 "You'll still love me though, right?" Oni jumps onto my dad's back and makes big puppy eyes.

 "Of course, who else is going to help me at work while your mother is rolling your sister to school?" My dad starts running around the kitchen with Oni still on his back. The whole time, she is blabbing about how she is dad's favorite and giggling.

 He does have a point though. Oni is a water singer, so she would a lot with his job as a island maker. My dad is an air singer and my mom is an nature singer. They go to a material place on one of our moons, and then my dad gets the giant piece of earth up to the Titanic Sphere, the realm of air where most air singers live, and it just somehow floats. The teachers and books say it has to do with the air molecules. Once it's in the air, my mom and some other nature and water singers come to do some decor. They also make them in the sea too. Oni's power could help decorate, or if it was above a sea, she could help lift up the island. But she needs to be able to control it first. One time I was in the shower, and Oni was outside trying to make to water in the fountain to ice. That's not the only water that got frozen.

  My mother's laugh gets me out of my thoughts. "David, put Oni down before she loses her breakfast and when Dawn becomes a giant bowling ball, you will be the one rolling her around," mother smoothly says.

 Yep. That's my mom. -(^,^)-
