There's a new nanny over here.

My name is Elizabeth Banks but everyone calls me Lizzie, I'm Michael and Jane's younger sister, I'm 21 and studying fashion here in London, I've always been the little girl obsessed with dresses and I was sure that when I grew up- would become a princess, well things didn't go exactly as I planned but they aren't too bad either

I live in a small squeeze not far from Michael's house, Jane lived a little further away but she was always around doing her job.

A few days ago a nanny arrived to take care of Georgie, Annabel and John, and according to my youngest nephew, she is magical, obviously I didn't believe it, but I didn't tell him that, it's just a child, I won't ruin his world magic just like they did to me

I've only met her once, Mary Poppins, I could barely talk to her really and I don't think she even wanted to, she looked at me so strangely I was sure I was going to get spanked right then and there, but I was polite anyway

- This is Mary Poppins, the nanny who is taking care of the children - Michael introduced us in an awkward way

- The magical nanny - A friendly smile made my face, I understood the hand as I introduced myself - I'm Michael's younger sister, my name is Elizabeth but you can call me Lizzie, everyone does - I laughed a little nervously , I was babbling like crazy - It's nice to meet you - Mary looked at my hand and then back at me, her serious look, her arms crossed and her extraordinarily perfect posture intimidated me, I couldn't lie, she was literally perfect and soooooo scary

- Hello!  - She said in a dry way, how rude, I put my hand down in embarrassment, I'm sure my face was red now - I need to go clean those kids, again -She huffed and started to go upstairs

I wasn't sure if I had done something wrong or she was just really ignorant, but I tried to forget about it, that was the last time I visited Michael's house for a few days, I didn't want to have to be under that threatening look again so I had to avoid it. , not to mention that Michael was in trouble with the bank and I felt awful for not being able to help

In addition to studying, I work in a small history museum here, they mostly tell the stories of the Kings and Queens of England, and I'm particularly passionate about these stories but that's not important, the salary I earn here is almost not what enough to live on and I still owe school, but I'm not going to complain about that, I just wish there was a way for me to help

I was hanging out at the museum just now, a really exhausting day, having to be told all day that I should be home cooking for a husband I don't even have, and never will, is not something I want to go through, but again , I'm not going to keep complaining, after all I end up having the privilege of having the life I have despite all the difficulties

But will for the moment, I didn't have classes today, thank heavens, my work at the museum starts at 14:00 in the afternoon and I leave at 18:00, at 19:00 I need to be in classes and I stay there until 23 :00, it's terribly scary coming home so late but I don't have much option, I would sometimes stay at Michael's house but well, with that nanny there, I'd rather face my fear and bet on luck that there's someone heavenly looking after me me

As soon as I left and closed the museum door, I heard some familiar voices

- Aunt Lizzie!!

- AUNT LIZZIEEE - I turned back and then I saw one of the craziest things of my week, Jack was driving a bicycle with Georgie in the basket, behind there was a ladder, on one side were John and Annabel and on the other the nanny nanny

- By the heavens what are you doing?  - I asked laughing without even noticing her look at me.  Carefully Jack stopped the bike, John and Annabel got out and ran towards me hugging me, with the help, George also came to me - I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm sure you're bigger - They laughed and George jumped up trying to reach my height
