To continue where so rudely interuppted, Mumsie's Pa was the local alchemist. Grandpa had long since past on to the Great Dispensery in the Sky but Baroness Airhead thought because Grandpa knew all about snake -oil cures Mumsie would too, Mumsie knew diddly squit, but she could put on a good act and look intelligent. So we all had a good larf out of Mumsie's imagined cures. Especially the one for darling little Nella's (the Baroness's brat of a daughter ) delicate digestive system (constipation). After the cure Mumsie concocted Leesha reckoned Nella wouldn't leave the guarde -robe for a month! I laughed myself sick! To return to the fateful Cheese and Wine Party. None of us girls were considered old enough to attend. Nella, the Hardupski's only brat - was only 11 1/2, I considered myself the height of elegance and sophistication, but was only 13 and Leesha a year younger. However, I managed to wheedle the story later from Morgana, Grandpa's old girlfriend.

Leena Nur was wrapping up her senior year at Leading Senior High this summer and with that, her domestic duties were also coming to their end. High school was nothing to miss for Leena. Instead, it was the bridge between childhood and adulthood. For the entirety of her life, she had been stuck there, forbidden to cross. Leena was neither young and never close to being old enough for anything. She considered it the curse of being the youngest and only daughter of a traditional East African family. As the sole daughter of her doting parents, Leena was their pride, their joy and also...their live-in maid. She was the youngest sibling of four brothers and as if being surrounded by them every living moment was not enough, her relentless neighbor, and brother's best friend made sure to loiter around to make her life worse. It was fine, she told herself, since she was determined to move out soon because of it. She knew she was close to the freedom she had been stealing tiny licks of since forever. She was graduating and that meant something so, so important. College. New Friends. And most irrevocably exciting, boys. If her father had heard that, let alone her brothers, Leena would have been locked deep inside her closet-sized room. However, she was determined they never would because by that time, she'd already be far away in America with her potential soul-mate, sipping hot cocoa and wrapped in lovely scarves she knitted. All she desired now, was to get through the rest of her high school career quieter than a mouse and receive that acceptance letter from UCLA. She could do it. Right? If she could just evade that annoying neighbor of hers.
