How I Live Now Page #2

Well, sort of.

But he lives with us

as much as he can.

That was his dog, Gin.

No, come back.

- Bless you.

- Hey, do you want a drink?

No.

And you can wash your hands

in the sink if you want.

- Mom! She's here!

- Piper, leave her.

- It's not time.

- Is your mom out or...?

No, she's in her study.

We don't usually see her

before 9:
00.

She's an expert

in loony extremists.

- She's going to save the world.

- Piper, shut up.

- Take cousin Daisy to her room.

- Come on, cousin Daisy.

I need to give you

the grand tour of the house.

This is my unicorn

I was telling you about.

Shh, that's mommy's office.

Now we will come

up the stairs.

That's the junk room

that Joe sleeps in sometimes

when his dad's being a wanker.

I know what a wanker is,

by the way.

And in here is your room.

You've so got the best

bed in the house.

U h-huh.

Well, I think my dad's

probably trying to get

through to me, so...

I'd kind of like

to yell at him in private.

So can you leave?

Now, please?

All right.

Can I get you a cup of tea?

No thanks.

Glamorous, confident girl.

I hope you get killed.

Dumb baby, dumb baby.

Stop slouching.

Avoid self-pity.

Itching, rashes, watery eyes,

watery eyes, watery eyes...

What do you

wanna do today, man?

Don't really mind.

- I wanna go fishing.

- Mmm.

- Go and get some fish, man.

- Hey.

Cousin Daisy at last!

We thought you'd never get up.

Morning.

Sit wherever you like.

We've made enough for about

a thousand people.

Mom has an emergency meeting

in London.

She said she's sorry,

and she'll see you this evening.

There's going to be

a World War Ill.

No, there isn't.

Stop being a dick,

and get Daisy

something to eat.

I'm not a dick!

- I'm actually not that hungry.

- Dick dick dick.

All right, Jet, I'm doing it.

We let you sleep in.

Eddie said you needed

to catch up on some rest.

- Did he?

- Are you a vampire?

No.

How much

dead animal do you want?

I'm really not hungry.

If you want,

I can make you a sandwich.

We've got some

really nice cheese.

No. I don't do wheat

or cow cheese.

- Cow cheese?

- Knob cheese.

Why don't you eat cow cheese?

Because it's basically

solidified cow mucus.

It stays in your gut

for like five years.

Morning.

Did you get

through to your dad?

Yeah. He's fine.

Actually, Isaac, could you pass

me the water, please?

D AIS Y's VOICE:
At least eight

glasses of water a day.

Mom said she'd call him

as soon as she can.

Let him know you arrived safely

and all.

No, that's fine.

He said not to bother.

He's kind of busy with work

and the new baby, so...

Increasing the supply

of the brain hormone...

Hey.

Have you got something
