I walk into Mr Calls dull grey law firm foyer in a pair of blue short shorts and my black epic fail shirt. I walk into the foyer with my blonde hair friend Gail in a pair of red short shorts with a white singlet and my light brown hair daughter Lilly in a light blue dress. I look around the foyer and there are stacks of paperwork laying around. 

"Let's check upstairs" Gail suggests happily bouncing on the balls of her feet.

"Weirdo" I mumble loud enough so she can hear me.

"I heard that" Gail says grinning.

"You were supposed to" I say smiling.

Gail, Lilly and I walk to the staircase. Gail pulls out a red key and we walk up the stairs. Each step we take the stairs would crick and we reach the top in no time. There are two brown wooden doors across from each other and on door has Mr Call written across it in white letters. The other door has storeroom written across it in black letters and Gail walks up to Mr Calls aka her father's office door shaking a little. She unlocks the door and pushes it open. A gush of cold air hits us and we walk into the creamy colour room with Gail going in first than Lilly and I walk in last. The room is freezing and I realise the ac is still on. There are more stacks of paperwork laying around the room.

"Doesn't anyone clean this place" I say under my breath.

"Mummy me tired" Lilly mumbles.

Lilly turns around and looks at me with her father's light blue eyes. She rubs her eyes and walks up to me. She puts her arms up and I kneel down. She wraps her little arms around my neck and I pick her up. She nuzzles her face in my neck and her breathing slows down which tells me that she is a sleep.

"Come on Gail let's get out of here" I whisper.

Gail turns and looks at me with a tired look on her face.

"Yeah this place is boring anyway" Gail complains.

Gail and I walk out of the room with Lilly a sleep in my arms. Gail pulls the door close behind us and locks it back up. We walk back downstairs and we basically run out of Gail's father's law firm so we don't get caught. We walk up the close to empty street and we come to these green jail like fences. We follow the fences up and we stop at an open gate. There is a maroon sign hanging on the fence and I read it.

"Busby Public School" I read out Loud.

Gail and I walk into the school. We look around and my eyes stop on a familiar blonde hair girl waving her arms around like a lunatic. I laugh quietly and shake my head.

"Candice, Gail over here" I hear Lisa yell.

Gail and I walk over to Lisa. I notice Lisa is the girl that was waving her arms around and she is standing near my black hair friend Lauren and my brown hair friend April. They are sitting down and we sit next to them. Lilly Stirs until her eyes open and she rubs her eyes. I smile and look around for her black hair father Derek.

"Where are the boys?" I ask confuse.

"At their football game" Lauren replies.

"Boys and their football" I say.

There is a mini brown stage set up in the middle of the schools back oval and there are white chairs set out in front of the stage. We get up from where we are sitting and walk to the chairs. Gail, Lauren, April, Lisa and I sit down in a chair while Lilly climbs onto my lap. A talent show is going on at the school and it is an 9whoever wants to go up on stage. The show starts and only two people go up. The show finishes not long after it starts and everyone who sat down gets up. We walk out of the school and two bright yellow buses pull up to the curb. The doors open and we wait. Our dark brown hair Coach Vukman walks out of the first bus and stands in front of the bus doors.
