“Arabella!” The shout came from downstairs, disturbing me, well from almost napping.

“Arabella!” Another impatient yell from mother made me roll my eyes in annoyance. I gritted my teeth and rise from my sleeping position.

“Hurry before dinner gets cold!” She yelled back, earning another eye roll from me.

She was already seated at the head of the table. Her eyes lift from her plate and she peers at me in irritation. “Why didn’t you fix your hair before coming here or at least put it in a bun?” Eyes glaring at my messy tangled hair.

As soon as I got home, I had quickly moved my hair in the bun I had fixed it in this morning. I love when my hair gets loose, it finally breathes in relief.

At least one of us can.
