Evelyn mumbled something to herself while the two went upstairs.

As soon as the door shut, May bursted out in tears even more, sobbing into her brother's shirt. "W-why is she so m-mean?"

"I don't know May," He sighed, hugging her tight.
Downstairs, the girl glanced at the fire, and then at the doll in her hands. A devilish grin came to her... and she tossed it in, walking elsewhere like it was nothing.

A few moments of sobbing passed as before May smelt burning plastic. "W-what IS that...?" She asked, trying to dry her tears.

"I... don't know." Max looked confused, and opened the door, holding May's hand and running downstairs.

May would start coughing heavily from her allergies, seeing the melted plastic lumps of a baby doll in the fire. "What the..." She wheezed.

Max's hand flew to his mouth.
"O-oh my god..." he paused. "...Mom's going to be furious!"

May tried to say something, though she was constantly bombarded by a coughing attack. "I-I need my inhaler..." She wheezed, looking for her inhaler in the normal spot it was kept, though she would have the pleasant surprise that it was missing.

"Fucking great!" He groaned, and rushed to the bathroom to see if it was in there.

They'd hear the tumbling of the door lock as the nigh-six-foot tall, black curly haired woman they called their mother walked in to see the sight, dropping the plastic bags around her arms then. "What in the world happened?!" She shouted, running over to her second-oldest and rubbing her back to try and stop the attack, seeing the melted husk of plastic in the fire.

"I CAN'T FIND HER INHALER!" Max shouted, running into the living room, nigh out of breath as well. "We checked the usual spot and it's not in the bathroom!"

"Where the hell WOULD it be, then?!" The woman barked, still rubbing her daughter's back. "Find your sister, maybe she has it!"

At that moment, Evelyn came in, sweet as can be, and handed April the inhaler.
"I found it." She lied. Albeit convincingly. "It was in the kitchen." She looked up to her brother. "I don't know how you missed it."

"Thank you Sweetie," She replied, sticking the device into May's mouth and triggering it. The second child gasped for air afterwards, simply for the fact she could breathe again.
"I bought each of you something." The woman said, motioning to the bags while still rubbing her first daughter's bacl. "Evelyn, be a dear and hand these out to everyone, please."

Evelyn looked confused, picking up the bag and rifling through the contents. They were wrapped, their names on. She passed them out, and then tore open her's... to reveal a brand new, cute-as-can-be, lifelike baby doll.

May would find her's to be a gold necklace, with a white jewel in the middle. She knew these were both faux, of course, but she still light up with joy on seeing it, hugging her mother. "Thank you, Mommy!"
"Now, this better not end up like your last one." April said with a marginal rage in her tone to Evelyn, moving her head to the fireplace. "I spent half of my paycheck on getting these for you three."

"...These are beautiful." Max said, holding his gifts- two Batman Arkham games- to his chest.

May let go of her mother then and put on her necklace. She was about to run up to her room before her mother haulted her.
"You have another gift in one of the bags, darling. They didn't wrap it, though." April told her, seeing her first daughter ravage to find a small toy.
...of Fluttershy and Angel. Needless to say, May squeed.

Max went back to the bottom of the stairs when May stopped, and smiled big when he saw what she'd got. He grabbed her free hand then.
"C'mon!" He told her happily, running towards the stairs while shouting at April, "THANKS MOMMY!"

May followed her brother up stairs, copying his reply before heading back upstairs and tearing her new toy open.
