Zora has been a friend of the Banks family for three years. They were like the perfect family you would see on TV. When Phillip and Vivian's nephew comes to live with them, he turns their lives upside down.
I was sleeping in my bed when I felt a pillow hit my face
"Wake up today is my audition" I heard Neil yell as I groaned and put my pillow over my face
He began jumping on my bed then he jump on top of me crushing me
"Get off your heavy" I told him pushing him to the floor
"Neil it is 5:00 in the morning" I told him looking at my alarm clock as he sat on my bed
"I'm too excited. I had to wake you up" He told me
"I'm going back to sleep" I said covering my face with my blanket as he hit me with a pillow
"How did you get in my house" I asked sitting up
"You gave me a key" he told me showing me his key
"I shouldn't have did that" I mumbled but to be fair when I gave him a key I didn't expect him to pop up at 5:00 in the morning
"I heard a noise. What's wrong" my grandfather said running in holding a broom
"It's just me Mr. Allen" Neil told him as he sighed in relief and put the broom down
"Wait a minute" I said as the boys looked at me
"You thought some broke into our house. Came into my room and you brought a broom for self defense" I asked my grandfather
"Yeah" he said as I sighed and out on my house slippers
"Well no point of going back to sleep now" I said stretching
"I'll get a pot of coffee going" my grandfather said walking out my room
"Can you guys make some breakfast" Neil asked as we walked downstairs

Neil eventually left for his audition so I walked to the Banks house because Carlton was driving to school today. My grandfather had enough strength so he walked with me
We all sat at the table when Geoffrey opened the door for Cedric, a Butler for the Randolph's, our neighbours
"Cedric" Geoffrey greeted him
"Good morning all" Cedric greeted us
"Good morning" we all replied
"Here they are hot of the presses. Move over Katie Kelly, Cedric has arrived" Cedric said showing us a book with his face on the cover
"Through The Keyhole: Memoirs of an Embitter Butler" my grandfather read the cover
"Check this out. Is it Cedric or Patrick Swayze?" Cedric asked dramatically
"You could never compete with Swayze" I told him
"Expose me but writing a steamy exposé about the Randolph family is darn offense and we won't have anything to do with that smut" Carlton told Cedric
