Chapter 28: Reputation

"Morning!" I greeted my mother and sister at breakfast. They were eating chopped strawberries and bananas over a thick layer of creamy yogurt. I added some cinnamon to my bowl.

"You slept early last night," my mother said, "When I came home I saw your lights were out."

Flora scoffed, "She's a grandma."

"Actually, I wasn't asleep. I was out," I said, remembering my mini adventure with Luke. I expected mum to be annoyed for not telling her where I went. Instead, she laughed, "Who would take you out? Batman?"

"No. Luke Dawson." ....

....

They stared at me.

....

....

And then they split their sides laughing. I should have stuck with Batman.

"Either you've become a comedian or you're crazy. Go on Millie. Have some breakfast and get to school."
