Semua Bab Spirit Vibe Inc. Chronicles : Bab 11 - Bab 20

After announcements, I said goodbye to Daniel, who flashed that charming smile before trudged off to Algebra III. What fun.When I walked in, I spotted Bobby waving from the back corner. I headed over."Fancy seeing you again," he greeted with that mischievous grin I was starting to realize was his default expression.I took the seat in front of his, turning sideways. "I didn't know you were in my class.""You were practically late yesterday, so you got stuck up front. I was back here the whole time," Bobby explained with a shrug."Oh.""I would've said hi, but you bolted out the door so fast after class, like a bat out of Hell," he said, grinning."Just didn't want to be late," I said with an apologetic look."Right, because you're clearly all about being a good student," Bobby teased. "So hey, what's Nancy's problem with you? I told her you were cool.""Probably the hallway thing." Though I suspected it had more to do with Daniel rushing to my rescue and hanging out with me. She pro

When I got into the house it was dark. I turned on the kitchen lights to see a note on the table, I went over to read it.Dear Cat,I am at a late interview and if all goes well, I most likely will not be home until nine or ten, they plan to give me a tour of the hospital and what my duties will be. There is a plate of food in the fridge that you can microwave and eat. If I get the job we will not have to move.Love Mom.P.S.Bert says he sorry.Sure, Bert says he’s sorry, yeah right. He is probably not going to be happy if mom gets the job. I wonder why she didn’t just call my phone, she is so old school. But then again maybe she did, I was not exactly aware of things. I pulled my phone out of my pocket to see if she did. One miss call, most likely mom, I dialed the voice mail and listen.“Hey it’s Bobby, give me a call after you’re done with Daniel,” Bobby laughed impishly, and hung up the phone.I looked up at the clock, it read six forty-five. I got the plate out of the fridge, bu

I walked groggily down the stairs, I think the dream made me more tired than before I went to bed. I came into the kitchen yawning and noticed another note on the table.Cat!I got the Job! I am at work at the moment for orientation, they are having me start right away. We’re staying, even though it is killing Bert. (Yippee) Please do be quite, he is asleep on the sofa. I met your friend’s mom last night, she interviewed me. She also invited us to dinner tonight at five, so come straight home after school.Love Mom.Great! Now I have to go to his house for dinner. I hope I can talk to him before then. The first friend I make and I lose his friendship on the second day, it must be a record somewhere.Huh? I wonder why Bert’s been sleeping on the sofa lately, maybe mom has finally put him in his place. It is about time too. I grab my bag and head out the door to see the bus pulling up. I climbed up and took my normal seat, to only see Bobby and no Daniel.“Where’s—” before I could ask,

Nothing weird happened the rest of the day. When I came home, I found mom in the kitchen munching on some crackers at the table.“Hey mom,” I greeted, taking a seat across from her. “Where’s Bert?” Man, a daring question for me.“At work, he might be home in time and he might not,” remarked Erika, she had a harder tone in her voice this time when speaking of Bert. Go mom! I really hope he is not home in time.“How come you wanted me home so soon? We don’t have to be there until five,” I mentioned.“Was there something you wanted to do?” inquired Erika.“I kind of wanted to go to the public library, after school,” I informed her.Mom smiled sweetly at me, “You and your books.”“I know, I love books,” I agreed, smiling fondly.“Actually, I wanted to take you shopping to look for something to wear tonight,” explained Erika.“We don’t need to be dressy,” I commented.“But all are clothes are packed away and wrinkly,” complained my mother.“Hmm, you just want to get something new,” I remar

“Who wants ice cream?” inquired Daniel, and he pushed back the hood of his car to enjoy the warm night.“Ooo, I do!” exclaimed Amy.“Sure,” I smiled in return.Daniel drove to the ice cream parlor, which I had ran to, two nights ago. It felt like years since I did that. A lot can go on in two days, especially my sudden change from cold hearted bitch to somewhat friendly.Daniel pulled into a parking space and we each sat in silence in our own thoughts until Amy broke it.“Soooo, have you guys kissed yet?” inquired Amy, with an impish smile.“No!” we both yelled back at her.She’s got guts, she never lost her smile at our outburst, and she simply asked calmly, “Well, what are you waiting for?”Daniel and I just looked at one another for a moment. Then Daniel smiled, and shrugged as if to say ‘hey it’s for my sister,’ and he leaned in towards me. I hesitated for a bit, but then leaned in myself. We were almost kissing when a voice called out.“Oh Daniel, you’re here!” we moved away from
