House Work

Today Lean will sweep the floor said my mother. It was our time to do our weekly chores. Mom already had everything planned. I took out the broom to sweep the floor like Lean. My cousin Igiboy took the detergent to clean the windows and the floor and Maxine, my other cousin, took out the ironing board. All of us had something to do. However, as I was not good at sweeping, I did not do a good job. In the end, my mom had to clean the house again.

My cousin Igiboy was very clumsy. He splatted detergent all over the floor and the sofa. My mom was exasperated. She decided to take over. Maxine was the only
one who was doing a good job. She ironed the garments well. But while she was ironing, she fell asleep. When she smell the smoke coming from under the iron behind her. She only remembered the iron when she heared my mom screamed. My mom was annoyed that she took over the ironing too. In the end, we watched TV and ate a potato chips. Mom said that we were not good at housework. However, we knew that she would definitely ask us to do that work again.
