(3rd Person POV)
She slowly opened her eyes, awakening from her sleep, surrounded by the stuffed animals in her bed.
Gemma: Good morning...
She rubbed the sleep from her eyes as she looked around the room, more awake than before.
Gemma: Listen, mom will teach me how to cook today. Do you guys want to watch? It's gonna be a ton of fun! Although, mom said it might be dangerous, so maybe you can watch from the dinner table.
Gemma laughed to herself when they didn't answer her.
Gemma: Of course you can't answer me...
She turned towards the door. Normally it was mom that woke her up, the door open and the smells of breakfast wafting into her room.
Gemma: Where's mom?
Suddenly she felt compelled to look out the window.
There was a large tree, its trunk twisting and winding around, with a branch that almost went right to her window. She climbed up the tree sometimes, throwing her stuffed animals from her window onto the branch, and then climbing up from the bottom of the tree to rescue them.
But there was no stuffed animal on the branch. Instead, as she went over to the window there was a bird sitting there, looking into her room as if it was watching her.
She didn't know what kind of bird it was, but it had black feathers, with dark red eyes.
Gemma: Heeh... Maybe you want to watch me cook too?
She giggled, but like her friends, it didn't answer her either.
Gemma: Alright, then. You can watch me too. You might have to watch from outside though...
She turned and grabbed her friends from her bed.
Gemma: Come on guys, let's go! Mom might be cooking already. You too, lit...
When she turned back to the window the bird was gone.
Gemma: Where did it go?
Monika: Gem? Are you awake?
Gemma: Uh, yes mom!
Monika: Come here, quickly!
Gemma: Okay!
She ran into the family room, propping her stuffed animals up on the table.
Gemma: There! You just watch me, okay?
Monika: Come here, come here!
Gemma: Alright mom, I'm ready!
Monika watched as her daughter ran into the kitchen, a huge smile on her face.
Monika: You might need to stand on a stool. You're too short to reach the counter.
Gemma ran over to grab the stool in the corner of the room, placing it down with a thud right next to her mom, before quickly stepping up onto it, giggling as she reached the top.
Gemma: I'm as tall as you now!
Gemma looked around the kitchen, eyes wide.
Gemma: What first?
Monika: Well, you should learn how to hold a knife, so you don't hurt yourself, first.
She grabbed a knife and held it in one hand, using her other hand to point.
Monika: Loop these fingers around the handle so they're behind the blade. Be careful.
She put the knife onto the table, and Gemma quickly picked it up.
