MARLEY heard the clicks of her sister's heels, moving closer to the kitchen where she sat up in the table, a bowl of cereal in hand. Klaus was perched on a chair with his leg thrown over the side of it, while Five continued to look for some coffee.

"Where's Vanya?" Allison asked looking at the trio of siblings.

"Oh, she left." Klaus sighed looking up at her.

"That's unfortunate." Five sighed bringing a canister over to the table.

"Yeah, it is." Marley shrugged, taking another spoonful of cereal.

"An entire square block. Forty-Two bedrooms, nineteen bathrooms, but no, not a single drop of coffee." Five said slamming the canister onto the counter.

"Dad hated caffeine." Allison leaned her hands onto the table.

"Well, he hated children, too, and he had plenty of us." Klaus laughed, staring at the table with a guitar clutched in his arms.

"I'm taking the car." Five stayed to himself, moving to leave the room.

"Where are you going, little one?" Marley teasingly asked, setting her bowl down.

"To get a decent cup of coffee." Five spoke through gritted teeth.

"Do you even know how to drive?" Allison asked with a scoff.

"I know how to do everything." He smugly replied, stepping back and teleporting to the garage.

"I feel like we should try and stop him, but then again, I also just kinda want to see what happens." Klaus announced standing up and facing his sisters.

The car engine was heard, followed by the car pulling away from the house. Marley rolled her eyes at her brother's antics, already used to it again, though he had only been back for less than a day.

"Marls." Allison called, making the said girl look up from her bowl.

"Yeah?" She asked through a mouthful of Lucky Charms.

"Where'd you get the cereal? You know Dad didn't like us eating anything but oatmeal for breakfast." Allison sighed with a smile.

"Texas." Marley mumbled, lowering her spoon that held the loops of joy.

"What?" Klaus laughed. "You ran all the way to Texas. For fucking cereal?"
