THUMP
Evelyn done her regular morning stretch. This time however, she stretched too far and ended up on her bedroom floor.
"Ouch" she whined, rubbing her head. She peeped open her eyes, just a little bit to examine her surroundings.
The morning sun slipped through the curtains warming up her bedroom.
Evelyn crawled off the floor and picked herself up. She slobbed her way to the curtains which she then threw open, allowing the sun fill her whole room.
She scuffled out of her bedroom. She knocked her pinky toe on the door frame.
"Ouch" she picked up her wounded foot while she hoped on her other foot.
"Ooowww" she whined once more. She hopped back and then...
thud, thud, thud, THUD
And that is how Evelyn made her way down the stairs.
"Are you okay Evie??" Darcy cried, she wipped a small tear from the corner of her eye.
"Don't laugh at me! Help me!" Evelyn called as she was lodged between the wall and a small coffee table.
Darcy pulled her sister up struggling to hold in her laughter.
"Great sister you are!" Evelyn said as she dusted her self off
Darcy's laugh was heard from the kitchen, "oh I do love you Evelyn" she giggled.
"I suppose I love you too Darce" Evelyn replied sitting herself down on the dining chair in their small kitchen.
"You better! I just made you breakfast!" Darcy placed Evelyn a plate of syrup bathed waffles and bacon.
"YUM" Evelyn cheered as she dug in to her breakfast

Evelyn got herself ready for work as quick as possible, she couldn't be late again!
Evelyn ran out of the front door and waited at the bus stop opposite her shared house.
Evelyn worked at a small diner. Cool Scoops was it's name. It was a 60s themed American diner placed in a small English town.
Evelyn loved where she worked, she especially loved the banana splits they served!
The bus finally arrived, she rumaged through her bag searching for some lose change to pay for the bus fair and she then sat herself down and put in some old headphones she "borrowed" from Darcy the week before.
She watched the familer scenery fly by out of her window. Once she got into the town she started counting all the red cars she saw to pass the time.
~~~~~~~~~~
Evelyn got into work at 10:15am
"Fifteen minutes late Miss Jones" Mr Darrby-her boss tutted from behind the counter.
"I am so so sorry" Evelyn apologized
"I'll let you off this time, get to work, chop chop" he clapped his hands.
