While Catherine and Carla slowly ate their meals, their sister, Wendy, nearly shoveled the food into her mouth. She looked up at the clock and back to the plate, feeding herself a bit faster than before. Mary and Jamie only watched Wendy stuff in mountains of pancake sin her mouth. Both were so awestruck at the the colossal red head that neither of them noticed they were being lifted up as well.
Carla noticed her little siblings getting scooped up but did nothing to alert Wendy, secretly wanting to watch the events. Catherine, starving and rightfully ravenous, only minded her own food and didn't bother to look up from her meal.
"Wendy, no!" Jamie screamed, hoping his sister heard.
"Don't eat us!" Mary added. The two continued to scream and plead for their lives until Wendy finally looked down to see what was wrong.
"Oh, shi-crap!" Wendy quickly changed the word, realizing what she was about to say in front of two impressionable children, although it was the least of her problems since she did almost eat her siblings without knowing it. "I didn't see you there." Her voice both sheepish and ashamed, she was still glad that she didn't eat her siblings.
Wendy tried to hide what almost happened by grabbing the twins and acting like nothing happened, but Catherine and Carla caught on easily. "Did you just?' Carla asked and stopped just before starting a laughing fit, and Catherine later joined in as well. Somewhat infuriated, Wendy unknowingly clenched her hand into a fist
Suddenly, Wendy's phone began to vibrate. A groan of protest came from Wendy as she mumbled something about being late.
"I have to go now. Carla, be nice to the twins. Catherine, please make sure they don't die. Mary, Jamie.... stay out of trouble." Wendy instructed in a rushed manner.
"Because I totally was the one that almost ate them." Catherine joked sarcastically.
"Shut up, Cathy." Wendy retorted, clenching her fist and the twins in anger. Wendy swiftly moved towards her messenger bag, forcing in the emptied out contents and the twins. The red head left the room and shouted, "I'm taking your car by the way!"
Slightly angry Catherine yelled, "take the bus, freeloader!"
"Too late," a muffled voice came from outside, Carla chuckled a little before receiving an angry glance from her sister.
"Where's the twins?" Catherine asked.
"Last time I saw them, they were in Wendy's hand..." Carla answered her voice slowing down in realization, "and she shoved them into her bag. Should we tell her?"
"Nah, she'll find out eventually."
