**Maddie’s POV**
“Any luck finding a job?” I ask Alithea. She rolls her eyes at me.
“I finished school two months ago,” she complains, “give me a break!”
“You know Dad’s offer-”
“I’m not working in the shop.”
“Alright,” I shrug, “look, can you go and get Olivia? We need to get going or they’ll miss the train.”
“Do I have to?” Alithea groans, “I hate dealing with Little Miss Popular.”
“Lith, she’s your sister.”
“And she’s a brat!”
“Go.”
“Mum!”
“Go.”
Alithea groans and stomps upstairs. I turn back to Arianwen.
“How’re you going, sweetie?” I ask. She looks up from her breakfast.
“I’ve finished my book,” she says.
“What book?” I ask.
“History of Magic.”
I turn around and look at the book she was reading. It’s Alithea’s old history book from school.
“You read all that?” I ask, taking it. Arianwen nods.
“It got a bit boring in the middle,” she says, “but the end was good.”
I shake my head at my five year old. She’s an absolute genius. It’s sort of scary.
“Brat-face hasn’t finished doing her make-up,” Alithea says, sitting down opposite Ari.
“For goodness sake!” I growl, walking over to the kitchen door, “OLIVIA!”
“COM-ING!”
“Who’s brat-face?” Arianwen asks innocently.
“Oli-”
“Alithea,” I warn.
“Mum!” Carmen calls, running up the hall, “we’ve got to go! We’re so late!”
“Alright,” I tell her, “ready to hop in the car, bub?”
“I am not a baby,” Arianwen retorts, sliding off the chair.
“Right, sorry,” I amend, “come on, quick! You coming, Lith?”
“Uh, no, I’m meeting with Luke,” she replies, checking her watch. I stop in the door way.
“Luke Wood?” I ask, raising an eyebrow, “Oliver’s nephew?”
“Yeah, that one,” Alithea says, “we were going to go job hunting together.”
“Oh yeah,” I smirk. Alithea blushes bright red.
“Not like that,” she says, “we’re just friends.”
“Yeah, I was just friends with your Dad at one point too,” I tease.
“You’ve got, like, twenty minutes,” she says, “go already!”
“OLIVIA! CAR NOW!” I yell.
“GIVE ME A MINUTE!”
“WE HAVEN’T GOT A MINUTE!”
I heard Olivia running down the stairs. She appears around the corner covered with make-up and looking ticked-off. Alithea looks over her and an evil smirk appears on her face.
