Charlie Sonner was waiting outside his block of flats, calling to his sister Lola, who was stumbling down the stairs carrying a half eaten banana and a colouring book in her small hands. Her lime green schoolbag was flung over one shoulder and her shoes were untied. 

Charlie:  "Lola, come on, we're going to be late! You know how much I needed to hand in my project!"

Lola: "I'm very nearly ready Charlie, I've just got to find my... my... PENCIL CASE!!"

Charlie looked over at the car, then at Lola. 

Charlie: "Fine. But I'm not helping you."

Charlie then got into the car, whilst Lola sauntered up the stairs. Ten minutes later, she returned with her pencil case... and her mermaid doll, her china cow and her favourite book.
