Transcript
Mother: “Heather?”
Heather: “Yeah.”
Mother: “I’m going to do some grocery shopping, so you’re going to be home alone for a while. I want to make sure this house gets perfectly clean, okay?”
Heather: “Okay.”
Mother: “I’ll be back around five. Bye.”
Heather: “Bye.”
Yes! Now I finally have the whole house to myself!
This is going to be SO much fun!
I have an idea: FOOD!
Let’s see . . . what is there to have that I’m normally not allowed to have?
Oh. Oooooo!
Okay, I think I’m all set for now.
Now … I … am … really … hyper.
Okay, whose bed am I jumping on first?
Yeah!
Woo . . . I am okay.
Let’s turn on some more music.
Oh gosh. It’s already 4:50. My parents are going to be back in ten minutes. And this house looks like a wreck because of me.
Oh no.
Well, let’s see if I can use my magic powers.
Okay, on to the next room.
Oh, oh.
Okay, on to the kitchen.
Oh no . . . Oh my gosh — they should be here any minute now.
I have to act natural.
Mother: “Hi Heather, I’m back.”
Heather: “Oh, hey.”
Mother: “What did you do while I was gone?”
Heather: “Nothing much.”
Mother: “Oh, alright.”
Heather: “Phew. That was a close one.”

Thank you so much for watching. You can see me every Sunday on Seven Perfect Angels.
Bye.
