This is Deyna, this is Darwin, and this is their little sister, Daisy. The story happens in their house, where Deyna and Darwin had to look after Daisy.

2

Darwin wanted to play basketball at the basketball court, but Deyna wanted to play house. They wanted to split up, but they had promised their mother that they would watch Daisy together.

3

Deyna and Darwin started arguing, and they forgot about Daisy.

4

Little Daisy climbed up the stairs, and then she jumped down from all of the stairs.

5

She fell to the ground with a thud. All her body got bruised, and she started bawling.

6

Deyna ran over to her and picked little Daisy up. “Oh, no!” Deyna said.

7

Darwin said, “I'll go get a blanket so we can put Daisy in it.” Darwin ran up the stairs and came back with a scarlet and poufy blanket.

8

Deyna carefully wrapped Daisy in the blanket, and Darwin wrapped the blanket around her.

9

Deyna said to Darwin, “I have an idea! How about we play house together, and your character can play basketball in the play house.” Darwin said, “Sure!”

10

Daisy watched them in the blanket, and Deyna and Darwin played house together. And they lived happily ever after.
