You quickly spin to turn towards your door, and breathe a sigh of relief at the sight of just your youngest sister Naomi. Phew! You were worried it'd be mom or Jacqueline, considering that they already noticed you were acting weird during breakfast, but you should be able to act normally around Naomi.
"What's up? Did you need something Naomi?" You ask, trying to act as cool as possible.
Naomi's face looks troubled.
"Hey, big bro? What's this thing?" You nearly fall over in shock as she produces your missing size remote from behind her back! She took it?! Does that mean she was snooping around your room?
"W-where did you find that?" You ask, quickly losing composure.
"I found it in your drawer. Why were you hiding it? Mom said that we shouldn't keep secrets from each other." Naomi replied. The situation seemed to get worse and worse. If she showed Mom then there was no chance of you getting a chance to you the remote! You had to try and convince her to give it back to you!
"N-no! I wasn't trying to keep it secret, I was just keeping it safe! It's pretty dangerous, so you should probably give it back.." You trail off as you reach out your hand, hoping that Naomi will just go along with it.
But she doesn't, she holds the remote slightly tighter.
"I'll give it back if you tell me what it does." She says, standing firm.
You sigh, it'll probably be easier to just tell her the truth and get the remote back. The whole thing sounds pretty unbelievable so it doesn't matter if she thinks you're lying, as long as you get it back.
"It's a remote that shrinks things. I tried it out on my desk earlier and it got really tiny. I don't know if it works on people so I was keeping it hidden in my room." Not entirely accurate, but close enough to the honest truth.
Naomi doesn't say anything, only standing there, thinking.
