The night was filled with a deep silence. The raw, haunting noises of owls could make anyone shiver. The soft rustling from the bed was proof Leo couldn’t sleep on the floor. But that wasn’t what made her wake up.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAjYsWxfbJSd
Anna sat up—not because of Leo, not because of the creepy sounds—but because she saw something. Something… off. A flicker in the corner of her eye, a feeling that something wasn’t right. Her chest tightened. She curled up on the bed where Leo had already claimed a spot. The dog, sensing something weird in the air, let out a soft sigh. What could he do? Bark?
75Please respect copyright.PENANAnhfmiuZRbf
Nothing happened. No shadow leapt out. No face stared back. Eventually, they both drifted back to sleep as the noises faded away…
75Please respect copyright.PENANA4IoHbrybUu
Until—
75Please respect copyright.PENANA0rRn7oInJk
“Anna, wake up! You’re getting late for school!”
75Please respect copyright.PENANA9YTwZ2iPCV
Now, you’d expect a sleepy “Five more minutes!” from a normal kid, but Anna? Nope. She never asks permission to do what she wants. So, she stays asleep anyway—even though she knows school’s waiting, studying’s waiting, and best of all—Leo’s gift is waiting...
75Please respect copyright.PENANAsp2RZYTxPE
She finally wakes up, rubbing her eyes. Suddenly, she freezes.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAiuSuTFDeDe
“PINKIIIIIIII!!”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAngRWKRJx2H
Her scream echoes through the house, loud enough to make her mom drop plates in the kitchen. But don’t expect her mom to panic or rush in. This? This is routine. If Anna’s awake, then the shouting has begun—especially when Pinky, her fluffy bear, is missing.
75Please respect copyright.PENANACI6b5WmNff
A deep sigh fills the room once Anna finds him—squished under her bed, tangled in a blanket like a tiny hostage. It’s just her nature. Anna always keeps things where she won’t forget them. Like… scissors under the bed, books under the cupboard, and shoes on the TV. She’s creative like that.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAiW3K6I7XKE
She gets up—or almost falls down trying—and drags herself into the kitchen, not to eat, but to tease her mom. She knows what she really has to do: clean up Leo’s little morning surprises. Ugh.
75Please respect copyright.PENANA1Lpv54nBdN
She puts on a bitter smile and starts cleaning. Then comes her favorite part of the morning—singing in the bathroom. But don’t call it singing. It’s more like screaming into a microphone at a rock concert. Can anyone stop her? Nope. She’s unstoppable.

Until—

The train horn.
75Please respect copyright.PENANALe6to5BaW8
“UGH. Again?! I missed the train!”
75Please respect copyright.PENANArawOdoh6HT
She stumbles out of the bathroom, still yelling—but at what, exactly? Everything. The blanket for not fixing itself. Her clothes for hiding. Her socks for disappearing like magic beans.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAp9LTy8JoQt
Her mom? A literal robot, rushing around helping her find everything: clothes, books, even the ancient rusty lunchbox that should honestly be in a museum by now.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAYAJI8Itp3z
Then… the best character arrives.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAaDawYEB8rl
Her dad, still sleeping like a dead whale on the couch. Anna walks up to him and gives him a slap on the butt—her version of an alarm clock.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAd1O7Xxit2P
Does it work? Of course. She’s the ruler of the house. No one disobeys her, or risk having the roof fly off from one of her rage storms.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAMnUaeiCfTD
Then she storms into her brother’s room. He’s had maybe two hours of sleep, because—was he studying? Please. He was gaming all night like a mouse with thumbs, probably finishing the fridge snacks too. No wonder he’s called the “two-legged mouse.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAI2VJ00sHtf
She crashes in, slaps his butt too, and yells at him. Again. If you can find one moment where Anna isn’t angry, you get a prize. (Well… maybe when she’s talking to herself, or to Pinky. Or Leo the poop king.)
75Please respect copyright.PENANAKGhRRFchlg
Mission: accomplished.
75Please respect copyright.PENANA9VeO6URtfW
Now comes Mission 2: ignoring tea.
75Please respect copyright.PENANArxmU5xZpWO
She never drinks tea in the morning. It’s made, ignored, left to get cold, and then handed off to the two-legged mouse brother like a “gift of disappointment.” Breakfast? Ew. But she eats anyway, chased by her unstoppable mom’s screams. No wonder Anna has such a powerful voice—it’s genetic.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAkF7SETPEwE
Another train horn. Where’s Anna? Gone. Half a second ago. Lucky her—she lives just a few steps from the train station, which she lovingly calls Cry Baby Palace (because, obviously, the horn sounds like a giant toddler crying for attention).
75Please respect copyright.PENANAnYp5po9JxD
She finally makes it. She smiles proudly—not because she’s ready to fail math again, but because she beat the train.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAqxFWSMzZcR
But wait… Where’s that smile?
75Please respect copyright.PENANAVpSAqNFIa6
Gone.
75Please respect copyright.PENANA59635fmLdH
It’s replaced by her usual tough, mysterious exterior. The one that makes people think she’s made of glass—hard, cold, and unreadable.
75Please respect copyright.PENANApebpDyYA2r
The train approaches slowly, and her mind starts yelling:
75Please respect copyright.PENANAisa9UV56Dm
“Can you jump?”
“What if you don’t get on?”
“What if everything ends?”
“What if you disappear, and no one even notices?”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAHeUjTiqmec
“SHUT UP, SHUT UP, YOU ALL SHUT UP!”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAjeMVH7qfME
She actually yells that out loud. Everyone stares. She glares back. They heard her.
75Please respect copyright.PENANA1hLqVKtvZ9
Oops.
75Please respect copyright.PENANArasxvG731z
She’s an introvert—home is her happy place. School? Jail.
75Please respect copyright.PENANAaFhURbGral
And this morning is a brutal reminder: The vacation is over. A whole month—gone.
75Please respect copyright.PENANATODXR0vPFa
It was just yesterday, wasn’t it?
75Please respect copyright.PENANAN7AZHWSkwt
“THIS IS SO UNFAIIIIIIIRRRRRRRR!!”
