Called
to Order
A red Toyota pulled up in the driveway of the Kay-san house. Joe was
looking
out window. “Oh shit!” he yelled. “What’s wrong Joey?” Madeline asked.
“The old broad’s here!” he said quickly. The room fell silent. “You’re
kidding, right?” China asked upset sounding. “Ha! I wish I was!” Joe
shot
back. Groans came from the group. Aneko look confused. “What’s wrong?”
she asked. *Sweat drop on the crew’s heads as they look at Aneko*
“What’s
wrong? What’s wrong? Satan’s grandma is what’s wrong?!?” Kris yelled.
“*Sweat
drop* Now now…” Basil said. “It’s the truth.” Robert said tag-teaming
Kris.
“How bad can she be?” Aneko asked. *All expect Basil, Mata, Matilda,
Adam,
and Aneko fall down* “*Sweat drop* She has no idea!” Tony wailed.
“*Sweat
drop* You said it!” said Joe. The crew sighed.
“KRISSS!” a woman’s voice yelled. “Coming.” said Kris. Then she ran
towards
the door. “She’s going to get an earful.” Joe said bitterly. The crew
listened
to Kay-san yell at Kris. “She’s loud.” said Aneko. “It gets worse.”
Adrian
said. “Okay. We’ll be going now. Bye.” China said quickly. “STOP RIGHT
THERE!” the woman yelled as the crew got up to leave. They froze right
in their tracks and turned. A woman looking to be forty with black hair
in a ponytail stood beside Kris. Kris herself looked her. The woman
searched
the room with her eyes. “So who all are new and who are visiting?” she
asked Kris. “Adam and Matilda are new and Aneko is visiting.” Kris
answered.
“Welcome to the Kay-san sorority house. My name is Kay-san and I am the
owner of the house.” the woman said. Then Kay-san turned to the others.
“I leave you all alone for two weeks and a half and you run a muck! You
know what you’ll be doing today!” she barked. “We know! We know!” they
grumbled.
Sweep kitchen and bathroom
Do dishes
Clean rooms
Water Plants
Vacuum
Dust
Clean bathrooms
Take out trash
Wash clothes
Fold clothes
Iron them
Put them away
Joe didn’t know what was worse. “Why are we doing this again?” Robert
complained.
“Cause we have to.” Aneko said. “Shut up!” he barked. “I was trying to
help!” she shot back. “Stop. Let’s just do this so the old broad can
quit
complaining.” Kris jumped in. Robert and Aneko turned away angrily.
“Slave
driver.” Rob grumbled under his breath.
The crew divided the chores. Some got what they wanted. Others, well….
didn’t. “Why do I have to deal with clothes?!?” China wailed. “Cause
all
the other spots are taken.” Kris said. *Sweat drop on China’s head as
she
sighs*
The chores began. All except the new kids, Aneko, Mata, Basil, and
Madeline
were complaining. “I feel like a housewife!” China wailed. “Well, if
you
cleaned while I was gone, you wouldn’t be complaining, now would you?”
Kay-san replied. “I hate you.” China grumbled under her breath.
The chores were finished by late afternoon. Kay-san inspected the
place.
To the crew’s satisfaction, she was pleased. And as a reward, Kay-san
gave
the crew a nice dinner.
That evening, the crew sat on the roof of the house. “*Sigh* That was
rough!”
Joe sighed. “You said it!” Kris said. “I don’t get it. What’s so bad
about
Kay-san?” Aneko asked cluelessly. *All except the new kids, Mata,
Madeline,
Basil, and Aneko fall back* “She hasn’t seen anything yet!” China
wailed.
“You’re got that right babe!” Robert said. *Crew sighs miserably*
