Ok Casey was about to open her letter
“Dear Casey,
Our library would like you to know that you have won our contest. You have won the trip to China for reading the most books. The plane tickets are in closed. You plane shall leave on the 5th of August. Once you have reached China you will be met by Conan Aoyama a translator/guide. We hope that you will very much enjoy your trip.
From,
The people of the Library”
“Heh, I sure do love to read,” I thought.
I was so excited. A trip to China! Even though the trip wasn’t till Friday I still packed. Friday was only 2 days away. After I packed I sat on my plain blue bed and stared at my white poster covered walls. Now my posters were not pictures of hot actors or boy bands, no my walls were covered with pictures of hot anime guys! Oh come on I’m still a girl! I still have an opsession over guys only the guys I like are fake..... Other than the posters my room was normal, a walk in closet, 4 book selves and a desk. Ok, maybe having 4 book selves is not normal..... I didn’t win that book reading contest by lying now did I?
My Mom walked in.
“Hey, Case. Got everything packed already? You’re not leaving till Friday.....” she said. Her eyes started to well up with tears. What is it with mothers and crying when their kids are only going to be gone for 2 weeks?
“I know. I’m so excited I wanted to make sure I had everything packed before Friday,” I said.
“My little girl’s to young to go out of the country!!!!!” she cried grasping me in her death trap of doom!
Ok fine it was a hug..... Gosh can’t I make a hug sound as scary as it is? Don’t wag your pencil at me Sarah! I’m getting to the story so calm down! Are you still writing everything I say??? Your impossible!
Ok after I escaped the dreaded hug I went to bed. I had a hard time sleeping so I called my BFF Tessa.
“Hello....?” a very cranky voice said. Maybe I shouldn’t have called at midnight....
“Tessa? Hey! It’s me Casey! I can’t sleep....” I said.
“So you called me......”
“Pretty much. I can’t call Sarah cause she has to work tomorrow,”
Sarah is my older collage friend. She’s 22 and is working for vet school and when she’s not at school she’s writing books. She had a tough deadline to meet. So I didn’t call her.
Wasn’t that nice of me to not call you Sarah? I see you don’t care. Your smiling so I can see your happy I’m including you. Anyways.....
“I’m sorry Tess....”I said.
“Uh! Uh Casey uh!” she cried.
She hates it when I call her Tess so she add uh to me saying Tess... Well people call me Case and I don’t care....
“Sorry,” I said.
“So why can’t you sleep?”
“ I’m to excited! I won a trip to China! I’m leaving Friday and wont be back for 2 weeks,”
“ You woke me up for this?”
“Tessa!!!” I said irritated a my friends insenstitivity.
“What? I’m tired!!” she said.
“Fine! Bye!” I cried slaming the phone down into it’s reciver.
After doing a little Yoga and reading a few chapters of my newest copy of “ Mew Mew Ala Mode” I finnaly fell asleep.
You look bored Sarah. You are? Fine I’ll skip ahead to the airport..... Oh, look at the clock. 6:00PM already? Wow. You better hurry to dinner. Let’s continue tomorrow.
To be continued
