Uncle Trouble
BY: Dalek Samurai and Slithine Master
The clouds whizzed by the plane window. Naomi was scribbling in her notebook while staring out the window. She wrote:
YAY! Emmsley and I are going to Washington D.C. We will stay with my uncle and cousins: Mira and Vanessa… My uncle is demanding and I hope that he doesn’t do something annoying again. Vanessa emailed me saying Allan will be there.
Naomi whipped open her bag and tugged her computer out. She logged in and opened her email. This was Vanessa’s email:

Dear Naomi,
I wanted to tell you something before you came.
My sweetheart boyfriend, Allan will be staying with us at
this time. I hope you and your snotty little friend, Emily understands.
Sincerely,
Vanessy.

Dear “Vanessy”,
Yes. We understand that your boyfriend is better
in every way than you. Also, we’re happy he’s coming
because we can be relieved by someone from
your horridness. By the way,
her name is EMMA and she is definitely NOT snotty.
And you are a D-U-M-B-O!
Sincerely (and not happily,)
Naomi
Ps:I don’t even think you could understand this because your so dumb!
Naomi slammed her computer. Emma was was still reading.
“See what I told you?” Naomi asked.
“Yup. She’s a D-U-M-B-O and a L-A-Z-Y-B-U-T-T!” Emma laughed.
Emma was tossing a small ball up and down. Naomi and Emma’s continuous chatter annoyed the really really old lady next to them. She continued her knitting, staring at Emma.
“What do you want to do?” Emma asked.
“I don’t know,” Naomi replied, staring out the window.
“What’re you doing?” Emma questioned.
“Looking for unicorns,” Naomi said, dreamily.
“Really,” Emma said sarcastically.
“No.” Naomi replied. “I’m writing a log of what we will do,”
“Oh,” Emma said, dropping the ball in her lap.
A women walked down the aisle.
“Would you like something from our menu or a free snack?” she insipidly asked, holding out a woven basket filled with glimmering plastic bags.
