" life asked death 'why do people love me and hate you?' death responded 'because you are a beautiful lie and I am the painful truth"

"Ok aunt Elsa I have finished cooking now is there anything els you need me to do?" I asked as I turned to find her. I left the kitchen and went into the living room right across the hall.

The light purple paint reminded me of Easter eggs with the way the sun came in from the bay window and the light blue curtains, that were a bit tattered, just added to the egg factor. On my left the small box tv was playing one of my moms favourite show "lets make a deal". on my right there was a bookshelf filled to the max with books and on the eggshell coloured couch my mother sat looking through my picture album. Her copper coloured hair hung down the front of her shoulders, her usually bright blue eyes were clouded in thought and worry, her full pink lips were set in a determined line. She was dressed in dark washed jeans and a light blue dress shirt. she looked beautiful, and so sad just sitting there.

I felt like I was invading her "memory lane" moment so I quietly walked out being carful to shut the door with a soft click. I turned left and headed to the back porch to see if my Aunty was there. once I opened the screen door I saw her.

"Aunty?" I questioned quietly seeing her face in almost the same twist as my mothers. Aunty Elsa is my mothers older sister by 2 years. everyone always assumes they are twins because of the close similarity. they have the same beautiful facial features but my Aunt has bright green eyes that at the moment are clouded with thought, and aunti's hair is a bit darker than my mothers. She was also 5'6" were as my mom is 5'5".

I walked up behind my aunt and tapped here lightly on the shoulder saying "aunti? are you alright? what are you thinking about" I had finally gained her attention.

Looking at me she sighed "nothing is wrong Lexi I'm just tired is all my bones aren't as strong as they used to be. haha listen to me I sound like an old grandma" she replied laughing sadly I could see in her eyes that that wasn't the entire truth. But I let it be, knowing my Aunti I would hear about it later when I listens in on my mothers and her conversations when they thought I was asleep.

"Ok" I smiled brightly trying to lighten the saddening mood.

"Are you gonna come and see how I cooked everything now? gran and Mark are gonna be here any minute and the twin troubles are gonna show up at some point too you know" I shuddered thinking about the two most mischievous kids under 10 in the world. Kayla and Kielen both 9 years old Kayla being the oldest by a minute. The two have been making trouble ever since they could walk. it was insane to think that they had pulled the biggest prank in school in gr 2. that is a story I'll Share later. My gran was the most caring lady I have ever met she is the one who adopted the 'twin troubles' (my nickname for them) just before grandpa passed away. I never knew him very well but I still loved him. About two and a half years later gran met Mark. He helped her fill the void in her heart we know that she could never forget about grandpa but Mark made her happy so we accepted him right away and he was good at dealing with the twins surprisingly.

"Your right darlin"Aunty Elsa said bringing me out of my thoughts once again. It seemed like we all had stuff on our minds today. "We better get in there and straiten up a bit. If those twins get into my kitchen again and do what they did last time I am going to bury them alive right here under this deck" I couldn't hold in my laughter as I remembered how aunti's entire kitchen had turned purple when she opened a gift they had left on the floor with Elsa's name on it. She was one of many victims of the 'twin troubles' pranks. I haven't gotten one yet so I was always on guard.

"You better stop laughing or I will tell them to stay the night and show them where the spider lives in our back yard" my Aunty glared at me and said with an ire tone. I looked at her bewildered.

"Y your j joking right?" I stuttered out as I stopes laughing instantly. All she did was turn strait lips into an evil smile and stared at me with narrowed eyes.

"Y you wouldn't t tell th them my s secret!" I stated frantically then questioned it "would you?"

She then burst out laughing at how gullible I was.

"Of course I wouldn't dear! I just wanted to see your face and let me tell you it was worth it" she was laughing so hard she had to lean against the railing of the balcony. I had no words for her. I was so embarrassed, I can't believe I had fallen for that, uhhh!!!

"Huh. whatever, I'm going to close up the kitchen" I mumbled as I walked away to the kitchen.

"Oh come on honey." She said following me to the kitchen herself "I'm sorry but you did laugh at my baby you know, and no one ever gets away with that or anything in that room there." And that was certainly true even the twins got in trouble for what they pulled.

We both finished cleaning and locking every way into the kitchen. Once we had the main door locked and barred (literally) my aunt went up stairs to start closing and locking any doors that led to any room that the twins were band to go into.

I decided to go and see how my mother was doing. I wanted to talk to her, maybe get the last bit of information on my father before I saw everyone, and then just cuddle with her like I did when I was young. I don't know how long my journey will be but I do plan on coming back. I smiled to myself. I have to do this. I went into the room.

The twin troubles: school prank gr 2

It was the end of May, about mid day, the sun was high in the sky overhead. All the Jackson hill elementary students were in the cafeteria eating lunch. most teachers were in they're classrooms as usual. No one would have saw this coming. Two little kids in grade 2 were up to no good as usual. the twins may have been young but there knowledge in science and mathematical calculations were extremely advanced. they could do high school equations and win a national science fare against the smartest scientists alive. I'm not exaggerating.

Kayla and Kielen had worked together to rig the sprinkler system to spray everyone in green slop, and cover all the floors in every hall in blue slime. it was the biggest mess they had ever made. they then made it so that everyone who went outside would be covered in feathers and sequence. they both had a litre so they could work from both ends of the school and put the flame near the sprinklers. don't ask how they could reach the roof because to this day they will not tell a soul. once the alarm and sprinklers want off they got out a window while everyone else slipped and slid all the way to the doors. If you were a spectator it would have been hilarious but if you were a part of the school you would have done what everyone else did and screamed your head off like the girls did or just cheered like most of the boys did. After that the school was closed for about 3 weeks just to clean the damage and the twins were banned from there. but didn't face anything than being grounded for about 5 weeks.

They are truly evilly smart.
