It was 9:00 on a dark and dreary night in October when Mindy and Mandy crept slowly up the stairs to check on their little brother Max. Mandy was very upset over the fact of having to check on her little brother when she wanted to sleep. However, Mindy wanted to make sure he was asleep, and she dragged Mandy along for company. “He’s supposed to be asleep! And he should be asleep by now! Why bother?!” Mandy complained as she dragged her black purse up the stairs. Mindy tried to ignore Mandy as she
