"And that's how the coat was locked inside the glass box here," Wilson finished his narration showing Chloe and Cherry the picture of it from a book.
"Wait dumb head, you want me to believe all you have just said. Please...give me a break, I ain't believing any of that genius Wilson," Cherry said with her tiny and bossy voice.
"Don't you dare insult me," Wilson retorted.
"Oh, what will you do?" Cherry challenged him.
"Just because dad and mom are on your side, doesn't mean you can get away with everything you do," Wilson said, completely annoyed.
"Of course I can, there is nothing you can do to me," Cherry replied confidently.
"Wilson, are you fighting with Cherry again? Kids you are going to be late for school," Mrs Lawson shouted, coming out of her room.
"No mum, just a second," Chloe said.
Meanwhile, Wilson and Cherry were still exchanging words. It has always been like that as Cherry was always annoying Wilson and stepping on his toes.
"Stop it guys, the fact is that it's just a made-up story to scare people," Chloe said, wearing her backpack which was on the table where they were standing.
"I told you," Cherry supported her sister.
"But it said to be true according to what is written here," Wilson answered, pointing at the book not ready to give up the argument.
"Fine blockhead, if it's true as you claim it is, why was Priest Lucan able to put the coat in the box, when it's called the untouchable coat" Cherry cleverly said.
"Yeah, tell us smarty pants," Chloe added.
"I don't know, but he died a few weeks after that incident," Wilson said.
"That doesn't answer my question," Cherry replied.
"I don't know, maybe he didn't have to touch the coat to put it inside the box, I guess," Wilson said, rather confused.
"Is that humanly possible for you?" Chloe asked.
"See, you guys can continue arguing for all I care, I'm out of here," Cherry said, carrying her school bag and leaving them there.
"Kids car now!!!" Mr. Lawson shouted.
"Thanks for wasting my time," Chloe said, leaving him there trying to ascertain a reasonable explanation.
Mr. Jack Lawson is a businessman who works in one of the top companies in the city of Willsvill. While Mrs. Juliet Lawson owned a supermarket and also worked as a manager in a cloth factory.
Chloe, the first child of the family, is a high schooler and has a devil-may-care attitude. She is gorgeous and beautiful, making a lot of people admire her. She is sassy, a baddie, and a bold girl.
Unlike Wilson the second child, a middle schooler who was dauntless, adventurous, and courageous. He loves exploring new possibilities and uncovering mysteries. He loves reading books and that made him a bright student.
Last but not least, Cherry the third and last child was in her world. She talks a lot, acts bossy, and is sometimes rude. She is in elementary school and doesn't give a damn about age which made her a little scary but adorable.
The Lawson family was a lovable one, despite having different personalities which made them a unique and wonderful family.

"Class today we'll be talking about the coaty disease," Mrs. Jane, their history teacher said.
"The coaty again?" Hareton said out loud.
"Mr Hareton, I won't tolerate that," Mrs Jane warned.
"Sorry Ma, but we don't want to hear what we've been told countless times. " Hareton replied and Wilson supported with a "yeah."
"That's why you should listen before saying anything," she said and they nodded reluctantly.
"The county disease is a very strange illness with its source from the strange coat called the untouchable coat" she briefly explained, making Wilson, Hareton, Jude, and June look at themselves.
"This disease doesn't kill quickly but gradually, destroying all the vital organs in the body until the person eventually becomes formless and dies. But according to history, there is a man still leaving with the disease but no one knows where he is kept," she explained further.
"How is that even possible when the last coaty disease happened in the 19th century," Wilson interrupted.
"Yes, that's true, even Priest Lucan couldn't survive it," June added and there was grumbling from every corner of the class.
"Silent everyone," Mrs. Jane said and there was silence.
"I don't know about that but let's just stick to what's in the textbook," she said.
"That's bullshit," Hareton answered.
"Words Hareton or you use the door," she said.
"Sorry ma, but all you have just said doesn't make any logical sense. How can you say someone with the coaty disease is still leaving up till today?" he questioned.
"Let's just leave the scientists to do their job," Mrs. Jane answered.
"And also if it's called the untouchable coat, then how was Priest Lucan able to put it inside the glass box?" Wilson questioned.
"I'm here to teach what's in the textbook," Mrs Jane replied, not knowing what to do.
"It's all crap, they are not telling us the truth, everything in that textbook is a big fat lie. And as a teacher you should be smart enough to go just beyond your textbook," Jude said.
"Yes!!!" the class chorused, hitting the desk.
Mrs. Jane swallowed hard and just decided to ignore all she had just heard and continue with the lesson.
"It is said that anyone who goes close to the coat will be infected by the coaty disease..." She was saying when Hareton interrupted her.
"And yeah yeah, the coat was owned by a demon-possessed girl, and then nobody can touch it. Does that make any sense to you? We've heard this story over and over again. Believe me Mrs. Jane it's all bullshit and crap and if you mind can you change the topic," Hareton blunted out.
"I will not have you talk to me like that, Hareton," Mrs. Jane warned and that was when they heard the sound of the bell, signifying the end of class.
"See you another time class," she said and left the class not sparing them a minute.
Then Hareton, Jude, and June gathered at Wilson's table.
"This is all crap," Hareton said.
