I woke up to the sound of the tv being played and the smell of food being cooked. I started to the ceiling for a few moments before I finally got up and climbed down the bunked bed. I checked to see if Anastasia was awake but she seems to be downstairs already I guess shes watching the tv. looking at the digital clock I saw my favorite show was about to start, I ran out the room and straight to the toilet to meet my daily needs and wash my face, during which I took a look at the mirror. a small brown boy with pinchable cheeks, innocent brown eyes, short afro and lips that would rival a woman own lips at least that's what the neighbor said. after I was done I rushed out of there and went downstairs, going past the hallway and into the living room. ana was on the couch watching the end of my little horsie, mum was helping dad in the kitchen making eggs and bacon sandwich and it seems to be almost done.
"ana it's my turn now," I said in a happy voice
"not yet, one more minute" she replied, fair enough.
counting down the seconds until it was time, she changed the channel and I was already singing the opening song of pokechu, sitting down next to ana. I always imagine what it would be like to have animals like them as pets it would be so amazing and then they'll help me to beat the bad guys like this show does. breakfast was ready not too soon after with all of us enjoying the meal together.
"mum can I go out and play," i said after the show was over
"no," mum said sternly
"what why its Saturday"

"you didn't do your homework yet but after your done with that then u can go out"
"Aww okay," I said while slowly walking away. I hate doing my homework its too hard and no one helps me sigh. got my bookbag out, prepared myself for the long hours that will come with me staring at the wall in my room because the subject I got to deal with is nothing less than math... I cant do it the first question is too much I have to try still. let's see 9+8-7= umm how am I suppose to count that, it goes past the number of fingers I got. maybe I can have ana help, shes very smart since every time I ask mum or dad they refuse to help me, well I have to wait for her to come upstairs first.
"dad can I have some money, I'm going out with friends" I hear ana saying, she couldn't have done her homework yet so there's no way-
"of course my girl just be back before it gets dark" no way they let her go again and didn't bother to check if she did it or not b-but she'll have to come and change so-
"thank you, dad, okay I'm leaving now" now that I think about it she wasn't wearing her PJ....i have been tricked!! ah, there she goes my only hope has left me, maybe I can finish this when she comes back.
----------------------------------------
shes finally back, I spent the whole day playing by myself with toys and sometimes doing the homework. I'm proud to say that I did 4 questions during those times.
ana comes rushing into our room and I see she's carrying some shopping, she dumps them on her desk next to me with a smile on her face.
"ana can you help me with my math homework" I try to ask in my innocent voice. her smile vanishes and she looks at me like I said something nasty.
"no, of course, I won't, if you cant even do simple math then you'll be the laughing stock for the rest of your life. anyways I'm going to be busy doing MY homework."
after hearing that I had to just give up and so I spend the rest of the day staring at the awesome design of the ceiling until it was time for me to sleep.
'I wonder if they forgot that tomorrow is my 6th birthday, maybe then they'll let me off and I can have a game to play. or a new toy' with that final thought I looked at my sister finishing her piece of work and dozed off.
