Too bad this isn't a fairytale...

Hi there, my names Mulanie, but everyone just calls me Lanie. I'm 21 and I'm a Capri-

"Lanie! Mulanie Marie Crawford!" Aunt Vivian shouted. "I've been calling you for awhile, get your head back on your shoulders and pay attention for once!..."

"Sorry aunt Vivian, I didn't mean to-"

"Enough with the excuses Lanie, now answer this question" as she angrily smacked the pointer on the dry erase board.

"Yes ma'am. What is one of the hearts 4-"

"My G.o.d! Lanie speak up, you're quieter than a church mouse on a Sunday!"

"Yes ma'am. What is one of the hearts 4 chambers?!" I say with a louder tone "The first chamber is the right ventricle. It's job is to pump deoxygenated blood to the pulmonary artery."

"Very good, you may take your seat now, next time I call you, I expect you to answer right away, do you understand?"

A creek comes from behind and Aunt Lola approaches

"Viv, give sweet Lanie a break, you have this poor child shaking in her boots everyday." Aunt Lola says softly

"No! She needs to learn manners. Where did we go wrong?!" Aunt Vivian shouts

Aunt Lola put her hands on my shoulders and gives me a slight smirk

"Darling, why don't we call it a day, okay? I just finished baking chocolate chip cookies with a twist, tell me what you think is the new ingredient?"

I start to get up from my desk

"No! Lola, we still have 7 minutes and 12 seconds left of today's lesson. Sit down Lanie!"

I sit back down

"Yes ma'am"

"Honey, go ahead and get to the kitchen, I'll talk with your aunt." Says aunt Lola with a slightly sa.s.sy tone

"Yes ma'am"

I look at aunt Lola for more confirmation before I get up

"LANIE STOP BEING SO DISOBEDIENT!" Aunt Vivian shouted. Her words echoed through the opened door and all throughout the house.

Her glare cuts through me like a knife and I sit down quickly. Aunt Lola pulls my arm with an unexpected strength and glared at me to leave so I get up...again

"LANIE! LANIE GEt back here" Aunt Vivian voice fades out as I get further and further away from the room.

I let out a great sigh

The smell of freshly baked cookies soothes me as I get closer to the kitchen. My watch starts beeping as a 5 minutes reminder.

"Oh c.r.a.p I need to hurry and start my pc up! My guild members might get annoyed with me if I'm late for the raid again!"

I grab a handful of cookies from the plate on the counter and run upstairs to my room.

"Come on come on computer! My baby you need to hurry a little, mama's begging you. "

-update needed-

"No no no! Where's the 'remind me later' b.u.t.ton?! ....oh yeah I've been postponing the update for 4 days already..."

-pushes update b.u.t.ton-
