(Her outfit)

Glenda's POV:

I woke up early and by that I mean three in the morning. It was Saturday and I was the only one up so I decided to go explore and then make breakfast for everyone. I mean if I'm going to live here I might as well contribute.

I got up out of bed and got ready for the day. I took a quick shower not bothering to wash my hair as all I brought was a bar of Basis sentless body soap, my razor, deodorant, and my toothbrush and toothpaste. One I got out of my shower I looked for towels and found them in two minutes. I dry off then brush my teeth before going back into my room.

I found my undergarments and put them on before brushing my hair and putting it up in a nice braid with some small braided strands inside it. I don't put on make up mainly because I couldn't afford any. I then go through my few clothes I have and get some flower jeans a white crop top and my white floral shoes. One I'm done I clean up my room and leave out to explore.

(Glenda's hair except imagine it black and going down to her knees.)

(Time skip to after exploring the house)

I went and looked around and found that some places were locked. The place was huge and this was just the inside I had yet to look at the entirety of the back yard but from what I could see it was huge.

I finally when back to my room to grab my apron I brought. It is a simple long old-timey gray women's apron. I then headed down to the industrial size kitchen and began to make an assortment of foods since I didn't know what everyone likes.

I made pancakes, regular, fluffy, and potato pancakes. Some French Beignets, bagels, muffins and French toast. Breakfast casserole, and a spinach and egg quiche. I made some bacon, sausage links and patties alone with eggs. I finished by preparing a fruit salad.

I had found some fruit, yogurt, spinach, and almond milk so I made Aqui bowls and fresh squeezed OJ. I made sure there was coffee before moving everything to the dinning room. The kitchen was clean thanks to me cleaning as I cooked. Not five minutes later it sounded like a stamped as all my brothers rushed into the room and Mia following alone with a man who looked very similar to my brothers.

(No one's POV)

All of the boys had woken to the amazing smell of food. Well all those except Sandro who had been busy working. "Wow I think you out did yourself Tullio," Their father said his mouth already watering at the aroma the food was letting off. Tullio however looked very perplexed as he said, "Um which one of you learned to cook."

Just then Glenda came through with a large stack of plates tottering percausisly. Sandro was quick to take them from her allowing them all to take in her attire, mainly her flour covered apron. At this all the boys had their mouths agap. "Glenda dear did you make all this," Mia asked in a soft and kind voice filled with awe.

"Yes ma'am it wasn't that much work I hope you like it," Glenda said very soft and tentively. Mia rushed to her giving big warm hug and whispered to the girl, "it wonderful thank you."
It was then that the boys' stomachs decided to make them selfs known with large and obnoxious growls. The man unfamiliar to Glenda let out a big laugh before saying,"since she prepared it we best get to work eating it."

With that they all sat at the table eagerly.  Glenda sat down across from Mia and next to Sandro. Just as they were about to dig in they noticed Glenda with her head bowed, hands folded and her eyes shut as she said a prayer only Sandro Mia and Dario could hear. It was a prayer filled with gradatude for the things she had been given and asking for God to bring good things into the familys lives.
