Marti knew. Because Marti knew everything. And one day, she decided she was going to let everyone know that she knew everything.

She waited for the moment when all four of her older siblings were in the living room area. Then she stomped downstairs to the table in front of the tv and climbed on top of it.

“Marti, get off. I can't see the tv.” Edwin said.

“Yeah, you're a better door than a window. But I want a window! Down!” Derek said.

“Marti, you're going to hurt yourself!” Casey cried and Lizzie agreed.

Marti waited patiently for them to all shut up. And then she began.

She pointed at Edwin. “You are in love with Lizzie.”

She pointed at Lizzie. “You are in love with Edwin, but you pretend to be all confused about Jamie even though you don't have feelings for him because you love Edwin.”

She pointed at Derek. “You love Casey.”

She pointed at Casey. “You love Derek.”

“And sometimes you guys kiss after screaming at each other, so you know you love each other. I don't know why any of you are even wasting time! I'm only eight and I know better than to be wasting my life like you guys. I mean, honestly.”

She rolled her eyes and got off the table. “Don't look so shocked. I know everything.”

She went back upstairs, satisfied.

Marti does know everything.
