Claudia and Korin

Chapter 3: The Bath

Since she was a stray, she must not have had very many baths. She was trying to get out and bite me. I put soap on her and she freaked out. She whimpered, jumped out, and shook. I got my $300 dress muddy and wet. I shrieked and yelled, "Ugh! You stupid mutt!! Do you even care how much this costs?!" She slunk away and looked like she might cry. I said I was sorry and went inside to change. Luckily, my mom and dad were in a town meeting. But my butler caught me. "Madam? Why is your dress wet and dirty?" "Umm... A car drove by too fast and did this," I whined. "Oh my! Dear, let's get this into the wash right away!" I hate it when he does that, but I can't blame him. I said," Hold on. I'll go upstairs." He clearly wanted me to change right there, but I am not like that. After I changed, I gave him the dress and went right back outside. This was normal, because I got the garage as a bedroom with 2 complete rooms as a hang out room and a "closet". I went to Korin and tried to coax her back into the tub but she started barking. Worried that Darren, my Butler, would hear, I stopped. She quit barking and jumped on me. Thank god the clothes I was wearing weren't expensive. (As if!) They only coated about $110. No biggie. She licked myface and was actually happy. I put her back into the treehouse and went inside to get her some food. But when I went inside, my parents were home and staring at me. " Yes?" I asked in a high tone. "Just where do you think you're going with all that food, young lady?" I told them I was taking it all to my room and they seemed worried. They started asking me about my personal life,like, if I had a boyfriend, or if I was feeling sick or nauseous. "I'm not pregnant if that's what you're saying." "Oh thank god!" They said simultaneously. I scoffed and said," Here's the stuff from the bakery". "Thank you, dahhling!!" Making sure they couldn't see me, I went and grabbed Korin.
