Question
The weather could not have been more perfect. Annie was so ecstatic that it was Saturday. She planned to spend the day playing basketball with her friends and swimming in the afternoon if they had time. It was late May and she could almost feel summer about to start. Only three more weeks of school! She had a ridiculous amount of homework to do that weekend, but that was what Sunday nights were invented for.
"Ollie, come outside with us," she tugged at her older brother's shirtsleeve. He was spread out on the kitchen table, papers from one end of the surface to the other, intent upon solving an intricate math equation. "It's Saturday! Time to play!"
"Annie, I have to finish this. Otherwise, I might flunk math." He gave her a serious look and punched a series of numbers into an enormous scientific calculator. She munched on her breakfast, getting crumbs all over his work. He brushed them aside carefully and deposited them in the wastebasket, only to have her create a whole new mess before he returned to his seat. She grinned and bounced on one foot, a ball of energy. Ollie took a bite of his sister's raisin bagel. They both loved bagels smeared in cream cheese, though Ollie usually ate his on a plate with a napkin.
"Oh come on, Ol, you haven't gotten so much as an A minus in years. Don't be such a bummer." She kept tugging at his arm. He waved her off distractedly.
"No, you go ahead. Wait, didn't mom say you had to finish your chores before going outside?"
"Aww, don't you start too." With a wave, she was off, half-eaten bagel in one hand and a ball in the other. Ollie shook his head at his impulsive sister. Though it was true that he got all A's, the same could not be said of Annie. He hoped that she would learn to be responsible one day, better sooner rather than later. After all, he wouldn't always be around to clean up after her.
