Suddenly I’m starting to feel really tired. How about if I have a nap for a few minutes and rest my eyes.
Mother: Emily, there’s someone at the door for you.
Emily: What? Is there?
Emily: Hello? Who’s there?
Make Up Artist: Hi. I’m the Crazy Makeup Artist. And I’ve heard that you requested a glamorous makeover.
Emily: Uh, no sorry. I think you’ve got the wrong person.
Make Up Artist: You requested a glamorous makeover, so I’m going to give you one.
Emily: I’m okay then.
Make Up Artist: So what make up do you want?
Emily: Please, could I have this eye shadow, this blusher, and this pale-pink lip gloss, please. And I want it looking very natural and professional.
Make Up Artist: No, no, no. I’m going to give you the BEST makeover you’ve had.
Emily: What? What are you doing? No get away from me! What are you doing?
Make Up Artist: Wait! Come back!
Emily: I really hope the Crazy Make Up Artist doesn’t find me in here!
Make Up Artist: Hah! I’ve found you! I’ve got the perfect eye shadow to match your lipstick.
Emily: No! Get off me! Please leave me alone!
