And now, it turned out she was envying herself.
Hand in hand with Everett, she entered the house, where Abigail and Langston were already in a wild play-fight and having toys scattered everywhere.
Dorothy's face went through a quick change of colors as she scolded, “You two, clean this mess up, now!” Because Everett was bit of a neat freak.
