"Hey Elijah,turn around."

"Why?"

"Face the house,I wanna get a good look at the back of your head."

Elijah obeyed,shuffling across the carpet so she was sitting facing her dollhouse,and continued playing.He looked back and forth between the back of her

head and his sketch book,finally deciding that her head was more of a circle than an oval,and began drawing a brief skeleton of her current pose.

"Hey Larry,would you ever let me paint my dolls?"

"What?Why would you do that?"

"Well,"she said,twisting around to look at him,holding one of her Bratz dolls."I have two Chloes!And I don't like this one as much!"

"Bratz are expensive,if you really wanna then I'll buy you a five dollar Barbie to destroy."

"Thank you!"Eljiah beamed,before returning to her dolls.Larry smirked as he drew her outline.

Elijah had tendancy to destroy,more so than he did.Any doll that was mean to the other dolls was always in for it,whether it be getting dunked repeatedly in

a mix of shower gells,shampoos and conditioners,or getting their hair completely snipped and colored using Larry's acrylic paints.Thankfully his sister didn't

take her disturbing behavior,except for that time she left Benjamin Campbell buried under three feet of sand at the beach for thirty minutes straight.He was

fine,just slightly traumatised.

Both of them looked up as their mom opened the bedroom door,still in her work clothes."Hey Larry,could you run to the store and get some cooking oil for

dinner?"

"Sure mom."He closed his book,putting it at the end of his bed and standing up."What are we-"

"I wanna go too!"Elijah exclaimed,shooting up and dropping her dolls.

"Alright"his mother sighed slightly."And it's Stir fry Larry."

Larry pretended to gag.

"Don't give me that attitude!When you're earning your own money you can choose what you want for dinner!"

"Mom I have a part-time job,and school."

Lisa rolled her eyes,sneer on her lips,and slammed their bedroom door!

"Mom?"Elijah muttered,starting towards the door.Larry put a hand on her shoulder,pulling her back slightly,and quietly leaving their room instead.

His mom sat on the couch with her head in her hands,clearly tired.

"Mom,is....everything okay?"he asked cautiously,walking slowly towards her.

"I-I'm sorry baby...it's just been a long day."

"It's okay,it's fine."He sat beside her,smiling and putting his hand on her shoulder in a comforting manner."How about I cook tonight?"

Lisa smiled,looking at him with tired eyes."Thank you,hon.It's be great if you could.."

"Of course I can!"he stated confidently as he stood up."Now you go take a bath and get on some nice pyjamas,and I'll start cooking."

"You sure you can handle that responsibility?"Lisa asked,smirking.

"Certain!"

Larry turned around,walking back to his bedroom door and dramatically shoving it open."You,come on.We're getting pizza."
