Nina expected Mirabel to have destroyed almost everything in the room in fury or at least be crying.
“ Mom and dad are looking for you. " Nina said solemnly.
“ It's alright, I'm not mad at you. I know you would like to take revenge, so I pretended to be naive to let you have your revenge for peace to reign between us. It's a good thing you got to step out and have a little freedom. " Mimi smiled. She closed the comic book she was reading and got off the bed. Nina and Mimi left the inner room to go meet their parents who were seated on a sofa in Nina's outer room. Before Anthony, their father could opened his mouth to speak, Mimi interrupted him.
“ Don't be mad at Nina. I didn't feel like going so I told her to cover up for me, after all we're identical. " Mimi lied.
“ Are you trying to defend her? ” Anthony squinted at Mirabel.
“ No. Please don't punish her. It's all my fault and I would like to take the blame ” Mimi said.
