Chapter Twenty Eight - Anniversary
You drive me crazy, I just can't speak. I'm so exited. I'm in too deep...Ooh Crazy
I had my headphones dancing around the kitchen.. Mom and Dad were going on a anniversary trip to Metropolis . The good thing about super hearing is that we could multitask and hear two things. My music and Mum getting herself wound up with worry because she and dad were leaving for a couple days as a anniversary get away.
"Don't use the upstairs bathroom. It's backed up. I have to snake the pipes." Mom stated
"Where's the pizza?" Clark asked, opening the fridge and scanning the shelves. I danced my way over and grabbed a can of pepsi out of the fridge.
"Fridge second shelf. Or you can nuke the chilli for dinner. Clark, Mia." my eyes flickered to her and I removed my headphones she smiled but then removed Clarks headphones. "Some clue you actually heard me."
"Upstairs bathroom off limits after nuclear chili dinner." he ate the cold pizza.
"Glad to see neither of your hearing has changed."
"Clark! Can I get a hand out here please." I took the plate from my brother and the took a slice as well before mom took it off me and put it back in the fridge. I sat down both after mom picked up her suitcase.
"Here, let me help" I grabbed the suitcase from her.
"Thank you, sweetheart." I took it out and over to the truck as Clark lifted the tail end up, so that Dad could make a quick fix. We came to a stop beside he truck.
"Okay. I left the number of our hotel on the nightstand. i think that's everything." she told us
"That ought to do it." Clark lowered the truck back down while still eating his pizza and I put the suitcase in the back. "I'm defiantly raising your allowance."
"Hey, I can do that too. That's not fair." I pout
"But you also work and earn more than what I give you in allowance so it evens out." Dad countered and I stuck my tongue out at him, making him chuckle.
"If you either of you need anything..."
"Call." Clark and I finished off Moms sentence together.
"It a couple of night in Metropolis, we'll be fine." Clark tries to assure her but she's always like this. I've gotten used to it.
"Relax, Mom as the responsible one. I will look after Clark." Clark shoves me and I shove back "You're making me look bad." I get him in a head lock
"Ah, Mia."
"Who's the responsible one? Who?"
"You! You are." he caves and I let go with a triumphant smile "You're insane"
"See they'll be fine. And soon, Madame, so shall we be." Dad opened the truck door
"Oh I almost forgot. Sorry. " Clark pulled out a card and handed it to Mom "Happy Anniversary."
"Happy Anniversary." I chime
"Sweetheart, thank you." mom hugged us both and then got in. Dad closed the door being her
"Thanks for the card. Think fast." Dad threw the dirty rag and Clark caught is as we backed away from the truck. We waved them off and i turned to my brother.
"You think they know?" Clark asked me
"That I temporary stole their hotel information so that we could plan several surprises for their arrival? Nope." I tapped his shoulder and headed back inside. Finishing the slice of pizza and my drink.
