"No mum, you don't sweep like that, it'll spoil the broom."

"Mum, those clothes have to be put in the bags before you throw them into the washing machine. Or else it'll be spoilt!"

"Mum you don't put so much soap! That's too much!"

"No you don't cut the vegetables like that."

"No! No! No! Mum you need to wash the chopping board before handling meat! Or it'll cause contamination and food-poisoning!"

I hover over Mum the whole day. She was really serious about yesterday's declaration. She really got down to trying her hand at housework. A person who has never done housework before is like an atomic bomb, full of danger. Was this how Granny Maria felt when she taught us?

" Mum. The chicken is burning, you need to put in the vegetable now!"

"Mum did you press the rice cooker to cook?"

"Mum, that's too little oil for frying. Put a little more, just a little- oh no, that's a little too much. Scoop a spatula of it out!"

"Mum- ouch!"

Will pinch me and I look at him.

" Just do you, Mum. I need some help outside Big Sis." Will say, forcefully pushing me outside.

"Stop nagging at Mum. My ears are bleeding too." Will say, closing the door.

"I can't help it." I swear I'm going crazy. This is way more stressful than acting as 'Ghost'. Just to make sure Mum doesn't burn the house down I haven't even studied my script yet. My script!

" You haven't forgotten to do something, have you?" Will narrowed his eyes at my expression.

"I haven't memories my lines for tonight's scene." I grimace, dashing back inside to grab my script. " Mum, Jack, I'll be outside. Call us when dinner's done."

Out in sight is better for my heart. I bring my script outside to memorize on the bench. Will rolled his eyes at me and continue taking down the clothes from the clothes line.

"Do you still remember Granny Maria?" I ask Will. They were quite small then when we had to sack her.

" The one who always gave us cookies secretly?" Will smile as he fold the white bedsheets, draping it on his arm.

The boys have indeed grown like bamboo shoots.

"That's right. I feel nostalgic." I tell Will. "When we went bankrupt then, Granny Maria spent her last day teaching Odile and I everything she could remember. I think I can understand her worries now. I feel the same while teaching Mum."

"I wonder where she is now. Her cookies were the best." Will dump the clothes beside me and we both start folding the laundry.

"Me too." I say, looking back down at my script as I grab a shirt over to fold.

Who am I: Odile

ICY SUN

The poster stood glaringly at the wall of the electronic shop and I pause in my footstep. Why is that person so familiar?

"Elido!" The fans around me began clamping around me, thinking that they could have a chance to interact with me right now.

"Sir, we have to move!" The leader of security guards of the shopping mall shout but my eyes just didn't leave the poster.
