Early in the morning on the next day, Charlie was sound asleep on bed. "Sup little bro!", Charlie's older sister Maia said shaking him awake.
"Do you ever knock?!", Charlie said pulling the covers over his head.
"I didn't have to, your door was cracked", she replied shrugging.
"Whatever. What do you want?", Charlie said grimly. Maia just smiled. "It's not what I want, it's what you are. Which is running late."
Charlie looks at his clock and springs out of bed. "7:40! Why didn't you wake me earlier?"
Maia shrugged. "You were sleeping so peacefully. It was better to leave you like that instead of grumpy and screaming at me."
"Well, how do you think that worked out?!", he replied putting on his shirt.
"Not sure. See ya at breakfast." Maia walks towards the door but turns around.
"And if you get laughed at at school, don't worry about it." Charlie scrambles in his drawer looking for some pants.
"What do you mean?"
Maia makes a evil like grin. "You'll see." Then turns back around to the door and mutters to herself, "Sooner or later."
*****
Charlie is finally ready in ten minutes and goes down to breakfast. His mom was washing dishes as he raced down the stairs. "Sweetie, you do know it's 7:50, right?", his mom asked.
"Yeah, I kinda figured", he answered with toast and orange juice in his mouth.
When he finally finished, Charlie put on some shoes and grabbed his bookbag. "Bye mom", he said kissing her on the cheek. "Bye Maia!"
