MARNISE'S POV

I violently opened a drawer, took a knife and threw the knife across the room. The knife was then lodged in the wall and when the knife cut through the air (*slaps knee at the pun* I'M SO FUNNY!!!), it nearly missed Alex's head by a few centimeters.

"I said, don't test me." I looked at him with a death glare straight in the eye.

He then immediately scrambled to the place where he made his mess to clean it up. The others were just standing there there in shock I turned back into the kitchen to find something to eat. I made a simple chicken mayo sandwich with four slices of bread and when I needed to cut the bread in half, I walked over to the red wall where the knife was, dislodged it from the wall, went into the kitchen to wash the knife and finally cut my sandwich in half. While I was making the sandwich, I had to make sure that I wasn't disturbing Alex in his cleaning duties.

The boys were just sitting there with their mouths gaping open...

Ok, let me tell you what happened right from the beginning.

(Rewind sounds)

I woke up early this morning due to my ringing alarm clock that I set normally on a Sunday. I set the alarm because I have to clean the house.I know, I know, why clean the house when I could just hire someone to do it for me. Well... The last time I did that, found half of my groceries gone and I can't risk that ever again.

I got out of bed, made the bed, and flopped myself out of the door. I walked around this house with a broom, a mop, a feather duster and some detergents. I started cleaning the whole house in my PJs, except for the rooms the boys are sleeping in.

It took me like two hours to clean, but I was now glad that the job was done. I put all the stuff back to where each and everything back in the cleaning cupboard and waltzed upstairs into my room. But before I took a shower, I decided that today would be my Me Day. My Me Day, is a day that I pamper myself as much as I feel like.

I also decided that I would rather take a nice, long, hot, relaxing bubble bath. I went into my bathroom, ran some water, poured some ylang ylang flower bubble bath foam that has some sparkles and waited until the water was my desired amount...

After the bath, I chose that today would be the day I would set my hair. When I say 'set my hair', I mean that I'm going to give it a wash, moisturise it when it's still damp then wrap it around in a towel. When I was done wrapping the towel around my head, I took a midnight black bathrobe and tied it tightly around myself. I then brushed my teeth and washed my face.

I went out of the bathroom and into my bedroom. Occasionally, on my Me Day I just walk around in a pair of sweatpants and a sports bra, but since I have visitors, I just moisturised myself, wore my undies and my bra with some mid thigh tights under my robe.

I soon grew hungry but I was lazy so I just took out my phone, connected it to the black bar speaker in the top corner of my room and played All in my head(Flex) by Fifth Harmony feat. Fetty Wap. For most of the time I just chilled in my room. My hunger then grew so before I left the room, I looked at myself in the full length mirror and I notice that I wasn't wearing any shoes.

No wonder it's cold...

I took my famous leopard print slipper boots and headed downstairs. Suddenly, the smell of burnt food hit me. I rushed downstairs to find the boys just sitting there doing nothing except being on their phones.
