I sat in the back seat of the taxi waiting. I picked up my phone waiting for a call from anyone. Hopefully Mum or Dad. They always call before one of them goes to work so I can talk to my little sisters Bluey and Bingo.

My tail began to wag as the phone finally rang.

"Hello. I'm calling for a Miss Heeler." I heard come through the speaker.
I tried not to laugh at the silly attempt at a prank.

"I'm sorry mate this is.... Um... Mr. Griller. Oh wait a minute. Miss Heeler phone for you." I said in a deeper voice, I heard squealing and giggling. I pulled the phone away from my face and cleared my throat going back to my normal voice. "Oi! How did u get my phone butler your supposed to be cleaning my plants. Off you pop." I said into the phone trying not to laugh.  "Now who's that cheeky butler called. Oh no. Now why would that sneak call you lot!" I laughed into the phone the cabbie started chuckling up front at me.

"That cheeky butler just called ya sister's. To say sumthin. But you scared him off. Now we don't know what he was gonna say anymore pup c'mon! I really like that Griller bloke." My dad Bandit said in mock scolding me. The girls were full on laughing now. My tail wagged faster as the house came into view, all my relative's thought I was still in New Zealand for collage but I finished faster than I thought I would and had to get home ASAP.

"Dad! There was no butler it was Gidget doing a different voice!" My six year old sister Bluey blurted and from the sound of it she fell on the floor.
After some shuffling my smaller sister Bingo had the phone now.

"Why didn't you answer this morning when, me and floppy called you? We wanted you to see our new bunny nightlight while it was still dark outside." Bingo said and boy am I glad I didn't answer her video call now she would have seen me at the train station.

"Oh Bingy I'm sorry love I was sleeping and my camera on my laptop or my camera phone wouldn't work. But I will definitely answer now I took it to the fix it shop and if you call me now I'll show you sumthin really awesome I swear. Or so help me my tail will fall off in my sleep." I promised her.
I heard shuffling again then the line went dead.

"Quick pal I've got maybe a minute before they grab the tablet and video me. Pop the boot!" I rushed, the pug up front poped it and I grabbed my two cases and backpack, paid him quick and rushed to the door. As soon as he pulled off my phone rang again.

"See I told you so. Ooh and look at this beautiful view behind me, ain't it sumthin mates." I answered it from the porch as the girls were amazed at the sun just now fully rising over the city.

"Oooh. Wait a minute if I didn't know any better--. Girls can you help ya dad with his bag for work." Mum said.
She smiled at the camera winking at me when the girls were gone. She blew a kiss at me and hung up.

I heard them running to the door and then a clatter. I heard dad screaming and laughinh, then the girls laughed, my tail wagged faster than possible as the door opened.

"Oh hey look it's ya sister." Dad said as the girls crawled off of him. They ran to the door and jumped on me.

"Oh no I got the building wrong I was supposed to see my sisters instead I get attacked my two hyper gremlins. Someome please have mercy." I cried as the girls grabbed my arms refusing to let go, as I attempted to shake 'em off.

Mum walked to us and gave dad a smoochy kiss as he walked around us all. Mum walked past us and grabbed my luggage and disappeared inside.

"So is that why you wouldn't answer us this morning because you were packing to move back home?" Bingo asked me her small ears pinned back.

"Sorry kid I can't just move back yet. I'm here on Holliday. I still got a lot of stuff to do before I really really pack everything and move home. Promise." I said as I scratched her chin and behind her ears.
The talk was over when Bluey jumped on me nearly crushing my tail.
