The night was filled with a deep silence. The raw, haunting noises of owls could make anyone shiver. The soft rustling from the bed was proof Leo couldn’t sleep on the floor. But that wasn’t what made her wake up.
182Please respect copyright.PENANARpJTwdaVBh
Anna sat up—not because of Leo, not because of the creepy sounds—but because she saw something. Something… off. A flicker in the corner of her eye, a feeling that something wasn’t right. Her chest tightened. She curled up on the bed where Leo had already claimed a spot. The dog, sensing something weird in the air, let out a soft sigh. What could he do? Bark?
182Please respect copyright.PENANAJF1MhzNe9Q
Nothing happened. No shadow leapt out. No face stared back. Eventually, they both drifted back to sleep as the noises faded away…
182Please respect copyright.PENANA5GPJWBWP1S
Until—
182Please respect copyright.PENANAPOKOs2hYQw
“Anna, wake up! You’re getting late for school!”
182Please respect copyright.PENANA2kJk25is64
Now, you’d expect a sleepy “Five more minutes!” from a normal kid, but Anna? Nope. She never asks permission to do what she wants. So, she stays asleep anyway—even though she knows school’s waiting, studying’s waiting, and best of all—Leo’s gift is waiting...
182Please respect copyright.PENANAcdmO9y8hxG
She finally wakes up, rubbing her eyes. Suddenly, she freezes.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAhBF2BMAm9c
“PINKIIIIIIII!!”
182Please respect copyright.PENANArHf603bgOu
Her scream echoes through the house, loud enough to make her mom drop plates in the kitchen. But don’t expect her mom to panic or rush in. This? This is routine. If Anna’s awake, then the shouting has begun—especially when Pinky, her fluffy bear, is missing.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAFPLFKBuquT
A deep sigh fills the room once Anna finds him—squished under her bed, tangled in a blanket like a tiny hostage. It’s just her nature. Anna always keeps things where she won’t forget them. Like… scissors under the bed, books under the cupboard, and shoes on the TV. She’s creative like that.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAHlwo1DOv4V
She gets up—or almost falls down trying—and drags herself into the kitchen, not to eat, but to tease her mom. She knows what she really has to do: clean up Leo’s little morning surprises. Ugh.
182Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZDP6aJUvC
She puts on a bitter smile and starts cleaning. Then comes her favorite part of the morning—singing in the bathroom. But don’t call it singing. It’s more like screaming into a microphone at a rock concert. Can anyone stop her? Nope. She’s unstoppable.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAS3k5o62nZc
Until—
182Please respect copyright.PENANA29htJXuL3Y
The train horn.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAFPdKFiGl7a
“UGH. Again?! I missed the train!”
182Please respect copyright.PENANABevUgJgqUS
She stumbles out of the bathroom, still yelling—but at what, exactly? Everything. The blanket for not fixing itself. Her clothes for hiding. Her socks for disappearing like magic beans.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAtDWjqGG3mc
Her mom? A literal robot, rushing around helping her find everything: clothes, books, even the ancient rusty lunchbox that should honestly be in a museum by now.
182Please respect copyright.PENANADvNOJzrq1j
Then… the best character arrives.
182Please respect copyright.PENANA82IoT9tHPX
Her dad, still sleeping like a dead whale on the couch. Anna walks up to him and gives him a slap on the butt—her version of an alarm clock.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAlGTM6W5Sdl
Does it work? Of course. She’s the ruler of the house. No one disobeys her, or risk having the roof fly off from one of her rage storms.
182Please respect copyright.PENANA5MttcDSBBh
Then she storms into her brother’s room. He’s had maybe two hours of sleep, because—was he studying? Please. He was gaming all night like a mouse with thumbs, probably finishing the fridge snacks too. No wonder he’s called the “two-legged mouse.”
182Please respect copyright.PENANAMn5C6XGLjU
She crashes in, slaps his butt too, and yells at him. Again. If you can find one moment where Anna isn’t angry, you get a prize. (Well… maybe when she’s talking to herself, or to Pinky. Or Leo the poop king.)
182Please respect copyright.PENANATZc6O1bRpP
Mission: accomplished.
182Please respect copyright.PENANA4WYNkGhFhK
Now comes Mission 2: ignoring tea.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAlLhEXaLSsd
She never drinks tea in the morning. It’s made, ignored, left to get cold, and then handed off to the two-legged mouse brother like a “gift of disappointment.” Breakfast? Ew. But she eats anyway, chased by her unstoppable mom’s screams. No wonder Anna has such a powerful voice—it’s genetic.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAeKXh53mOou
Another train horn. Where’s Anna? Gone. Half a second ago. Lucky her—she lives just a few steps from the train station, which she lovingly calls Cry Baby Palace (because, obviously, the horn sounds like a giant toddler crying for attention).
182Please respect copyright.PENANAKkgUpQTXpX
She finally makes it. She smiles proudly—not because she’s ready to fail math again, but because she beat the train.
182Please respect copyright.PENANA5t2tfq3xQc
But wait… Where’s that smile?
182Please respect copyright.PENANAl9kkNq0XbB
Gone.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAuFAFFoP3S2
It’s replaced by her usual tough, mysterious exterior. The one that makes people think she’s made of glass—hard, cold, and unreadable.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAwkOui3jqxC
The train approaches slowly, and her mind starts yelling:
182Please respect copyright.PENANARgRjs0jUar
“Can you jump?”
“What if you don’t get on?”
“What if everything ends?”
“What if you disappear, and no one even notices?”
182Please respect copyright.PENANAGUZ116c5jI
“SHUT UP, SHUT UP, YOU ALL SHUT UP!”
182Please respect copyright.PENANA1wpwkDBc5j
She actually yells that out loud. Everyone stares. She glares back. They heard her.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAVXJAQVLLcT
Oops.
182Please respect copyright.PENANA8x4w57DygY
She’s an introvert—home is her happy place. School? Jail.
182Please respect copyright.PENANAZnxdkVFBSt
And this morning is a brutal reminder: The vacation is over. A whole month—gone.
182Please respect copyright.PENANA1wsqs7Mbgh
It was just yesterday, wasn’t it?
182Please respect copyright.PENANAte05NfDvuG
“THIS IS SO UNFAIIIIIIIRRRRRRRR!!”
