“‘LOOK OUT!’ it yelled.
Elly sat up with a start. ‘What?’ she asked, looking around sleepily. ‘What happened?’ Everything seemed perfectly normal. She looked at the watch on her wrist. It seemed to be smirking.
‘Time to get up,’ said the watch.
‘What’s wrong with just a simple “good morning”?’ grumbled Jess, who was also now awake.
‘It’s your first day at your new school,’ said the watch, ignoring Jess. ‘Don’t be late.’ ‘You’re more of a Bossy-Watch than a Worry-Watch,’ complained Elly, but she ...got up anyway.
Elly had never used a human shower before. At home she either had a bath or, if she was in a hurry, cleaned herself with a dirt-absorbing towel. She didn’t really like using the dirt-absorbing towels because they liked to flick your legs when you weren’t watching. Elly thought the human shower was much better. ‘It’s like having your own rain cloud, but warmer,’ she said to Jess.
Jess was already dressed by the time Elly got out.MoreLess
