“Yeah sure,” Alana said.

“Oh yeah, so I'm going to go get a snack. Afterwards can we hang out alone?” Andrew asked.

 

“Su-” Alana said, as Bertha interrupted her. 

 

‘Hey Andrew, are you Alana’s boyfriend?” Bertha asked.

 

“Ugh, yeah I am and you're her cousin? I hope you know she will be with me all day.” Andrew said sarcastically.

 

“Oh yeah, Alana! where's your mom?” Bertha asked..

 

“She's at the hospital, doing chemo. So I'm the boss and you have to stay with me, cause people come and try to kidnap kids! ...So, come on.” Alana answered.

 

“Wait, I didn't know that Alana” Andrew said.

 

“Well, let's go then! ” Alana said.

 

“Okay.” Bertha said.

 

As Alana, Andrew, and Bertha started walking, they met up with Julie.

 

“Hey Julie, want to hang out with me, Andrew and Bertha, my cousin bertha...she's staying...with me for the summer and I'm the boss of her while mom is at the hospital?”alana asked

Alana help bertha and they ended up sleeping but alan woke up in the middle of the night to a loud knock on the door and didn't check it but alan locked the door as if she was sleep waking and went to her room when she woke up in the morning when she woke up she realized that bertha wasnt home so she went to the door and realized that it was bertha at the door last night and called andrew and asked if betha went to his house when alana had locked bertha out andrew said no alana got worried and called bertha 

 

“Alana you locked me out last night andrew stopped by and i told him you were sleeping but when i tried to get back in you locked the door”bertha said

 

“Oh yeah sorry i sleep walk and next time can you tell me someone at the door?”alana asked

“Yeah”bertha said 

 

“Okay thank you!”alana yelled 

Knock knock knock andrew was at the door 

 

“I'LL GET IT!!!”bertha said 

 

“Okay…”alan said in a confused voice

 

Alana herd bertha and someone talking about not letting alana know that they were there alana could not make out who was there who weather it was a boy or a girl so alan was kinda suspicious as alana went to see who was there bertha walked in and alana aaked 

 

“Who was here?”

“No one some old man who wanted to know...if we were gonna go to...church”bertha said hesitantly

 

“Oh okay then wanna go see if Andrew can hangout?”alana asked 

 

“NO...i mean no i don't like him he has a BAD attitude and he's kinda rude”bertha said 

 

“Okay then do you want to just sit here on the couch all day and watch t.v?”alan asked 

 

“Yeah  kinda…”bertha said in a sad voice 

 

“You okay?”alana asked 

 

“Yeah me and my boyfriend broke so i guess me and my ex-boyfriend broke up”bertha said as she started crying 

 

“Oh sorry well i don't know how to help you”alana said 

 

As they sat in the living room andrew texted alana and told her that bertha was hitting on him as if she liked him alana got virus but didn't say anything cues she didn't want any drama but she and bertha started giving each other attitude and andrew came over they all hangout in the living room 

 

“Hey alana, how do you not get taken away? You live here by yourself and cook for yourself with no company?”andrew asked

 

“Oh...umm...my mom signs a paper that makes me able to live by myself and survive by myself and she did the same for my sisters to”alana said as she started crying 

 

“Did i say something wrong?”andrew asked 

 

“No”alana said 

 

“You sure?”andrew asked 

 

“Yeah”alana said as she walked to her room and shut the door behind her 

 

The next day alana didn't even get out of bed or eat she just stayed in her room all day but after that day passed bertha and andrew got sick of it they barded in her room and both said at the same time

 

“Alana get out of bed, what the heck is going on?”

 

“Nothing guys it doesn't matter”alana said 

 

“Yes it does alana you need to tell us what's going on”andrew said 

 

“When did you get here?”alana asked 

“Don't change the subject”andrew said 

 

“Why is it such a big deal anyway”alana asked 

 

“Cues whatever is making you this way is making you depressed and i don't like it”andrew said 

 

“Okay fine, want to know what's going on?”alana asked 

 

“Yes”andrew and bertha said at the same time

 

“Find my mom got me emancipated so when she lets go of the grass i don't have to go live with my dad and me and my sisters can live here and pay the bills i have a job as a babysitter and my older sister works at mcdonalds and my oldest sister works at subway and when she dies we were gonna have to live with our dad and we don't want to”alana said 

 

“Oh i'm so sorry...but what does let go of the grass mean?”andrew asked 

 

“Really andrew it means to die”bertha said 

 

Alana started crying and andrew and bertha went to the living room and sat out there alana didnt know what was going on so she texted andrew 

 

“Hey what are you guys doing out there? I don't trust her. She has dated my ex-boyfriend. He cheated on me with her and she knew what was going on?”

 

“Nothing was watching t.v...DO YOU THINK I WOULD CHEAT ON YOU ALANA REALLY?!!!”andrew texted 

 

“Don't yell at me and no, I just don't trust her. Wanna come hang out with me in my room or go to the field?”alana texted 

 

“Yeah sorry its just that you made it sound like you didn't trust me and it wouldn't be hard to believe cues you have trust issues and i don't wanna make that worse and yeah sure i'm on my way in”andrew texted 

 

So andrew went to alana's room and they hung out in there they eventually fell a sleep they woke up to alana's mom calling her 

 

“Mom whats up sorry i fell a-”alana said as her mom interrupted her 

“Why are you and that boy in the same bed?”alana's mom said 

 

“Oh we were watching a movie and bertha was kinda being rude so we came in here and started to watch night court”alana said 

 

“Oh so no funny business your...uncle won't have to go there with a bat”alana's mom said 

 

“Uhh no he won't but a little intense don't you think”alana said 

 

“Yeah but a baby would also be a little intense coming out to”alana's mom said 

 

“a..BABAY MOM I AM A-SEXUAL I DON'T LIKE ANY

“Sorry well doc is here love you by”alana's mom said]

 

“Bye”alana said  in a sad and disappointed voice 

 

“What happened?”andrew asked 

 

“Nothing at all...wanna go to the failed?”alana asked

 

“Yeah want me to grab the keys?”andrew said 

 

“Yeah… BERTHA COME HERE PLEASE”alana said

 

But soon alana realized that bertha didn't come or even give a response so she went to the living room and checked her room she was sound asleep in her room cues they looked at the time and it was almost night time and andrew was in big trouble 

 

“Welp i'm in trouble and if you don't hear from me in a week then send help”andrew said as he walked out the door 

 

“Okay”alana said 

 

So alana walked to bethas room and woke her up

 

“Hey wanna go to the field?”alana asked 

 

“What...yeah sure wait what time is it?”bertha asked

 

“Oh it's like 7pm why?”anana asked 

 

“Nothing it's fine well we gonna go”bertha said as she started laughing
