Hey!

Nico is 5 and Bianca is 7. Bianca's POV

"Nico! Give it back! Mama isn't going to be happy with you!" I shout and he tries to run. He has my hairbrush, which he loves to steal and when Mama and Papa are helping me look, he presents it like he found it. Whenever I say he's the one who stole it, he makes what Papa has dubbed the puppy face. He's hiding in that one place I can't reach cause I'm too big. He blows me a raspberry.

"Why'd ya need it so bad? It's just hair! I have hair and I only brush it when Mama wants!" He exclaims. 

"It's cause I have long hair!" I retort, shaking my head to show, whipping him lightly with it. He grabs a handful, and yanks. I shout, and mutter words Mama told me never to say, especially in front of Nico. "That's it!"I cry, as I clamber over the sofa. 

"That's cheating!" He yells. I began to yell back when Mama walks in. 

"What's going on in here?" She asks. She doesn't sound mad. She never does. She tells it's because she works with a bunch of angry men, and there is little difference between us and them. I don't get it, but Mama's always right, so I guess we have to agree.

"Nico took my hair brush!" I exclaim. He presents it from behind his back.

"Did not! It was behind the sofa, cause Bianca is stupid." He says, flashing his big brown eyes, and sticking out his lower lip. I see Mama soften, slightly, but if she caves to him, I'LL get in trouble when I didn't do anything.

"Did too!" I retort, breaking the tense silence. He starts to respond, and we begin to bicker. Mama claps her hands. 

"Enough!" We fall silent. "Now Bianca, tell me your half." I explain to her. She nods. 

"Ok. Nico tell me yours." He tells his version, which depicts me being a stupid girl, who dropped it behind the couch and then got distracted by a pretty flower.

"Alright, Nico, apologize for taking her brush and Bianca, apologize for over reacting." She says. 

"Sorry for overreacting." I tell him without more than a hint of sorrow. 

"Sorry for taking you hairbrush." He says with a pout, though his voice holds no remorse. Mama nods. 

"Good,i miei piccoli. Now, let's go make dinner. I believe Papa is coming home tonight!"
