'Amy, you really annoyed me in my dream last night. I'm not very happy with you!' said Lizzie sulkily over breakfast.
Mrs Mayhew raised one eyebrow as she placed the toast rack on the table between them.
'What did she do Lizzie?' she asked humouring her.
'I'd rather not say!' declared Lizzie defiantly.
Mrs Mayhew looked down at little Amy who looked back at her wide-eyed and innocent.
'Well Amy,' said Mrs Mayhew 'What do you think about all this?'
Amy tilted her head to one side in consideration.
'Yes,' said Amy 'I imagine I probably was a little annoying...'
'Understatement! You were being totally obnoxious!' interjected Lizzie.
Mrs Mayhew rolled her eyes and laughed.
'You two, what a silly imaginative pair you are! Just a dream!'
She turned her back to fetch the orange juice from the fridge. Meanwhile Lizzie and Amy exchanged knowing looks and in turn rolled their eyes at their mother's adult foolishness.
