I lazily walk down the flight of stairs that's so intimidatingly steep that I normally slide down the handrail, but today I'm just too tired to even try. Why does my room have to be in the basement? I stop walking and look up. Dang it, I forgot a snack, the prime reason I went upstairs in the first place. I roll my eyes and start trekking up the stairs.
"Ayeababoooooooooo!" I can hear my niece's screeches from her high chair in the kitchen. The yells get louder as I travel closer to the ground level of the house.
Finally, I reach the end of the steep climb. As I enter the kitchen, Emily and Mom are busily surrounding Charlotte, who's still chattering in her high chair.
"Emmy, when did you come here?" I ask my sister. I know she's been here for a while but I don't ever remember her entering the house.
"I spent the night, remember?" She laughs.
"Oh, yeah." I mutter, sticking my face into the fridge. I grab my can of cranberry jelly and a bottle of water then close the door. Before I go back to my room, I head into the living room, and snatch the handmade quilt on the couch.
I put on my headphones, trying to drown out Charlotte's loudness. It doesn't work very well, so with a loud sigh, I stand up from my comfy bed. I trudge to the stairs once again, wanting to watch TV. Why do I have to be so lazy?
