• My heart felt like it was going to burst out of my rib cage. "so, umm, what are you up to?" I asked....such a stupid,stupid question, i need practice!!! "nothing much" he replied, leaning on the light pole. I could feel my cheeks turning bright red.....please let something good happen!!. I held my hands together hoping he would say something, breaking this unbearable silence. "hey wan---" his eyes moved to the tire of my mom's blue truck. I looked to see what was so interesting......there was a cat. "OH! a kitty~ so cu~~te!" i squeled leaning down to pet it. I turned to toya, only to notice his expression, it wasa like panic, annoyed, and, fear? I walked over to him.

    What if he's scared of cat's, no, not a guy like toya, he's like marble smooth, and he's too sweet not to hate kittys,,, isn't he? "toya-sama? are you.......okay?" please say no! you just have to sneeze! i am SO weird.....ha...ugh. "i-i gotta go Ai, see you, uhh...whenever" and with that, he ran off, to his house....leaving me in the parking lot, with a cat, and a horribly ticked off mind!

    What? what if i never see him again!? this is not good, im panicing!!!! "oh! hunny, i'm sorry i'm late!" she whined. "it's okay" i lied. I picked up the cat and put her on the grass. Out of the car's way. I stood there for a while, staring in the direction Toya ran off into. My heart sank. "are you okay ai?" my mom asked sweetly. "y-yeah mom, i'm fine" that, was another lie. We climbed into the car, and drove home.

    That night was horrible. The thoughts going through my mind kept me awake the whole night, and on top of that, it was raining! Our hosue is old, and made out of wood, so the wind and rain usually makes the house creeky. Me, mom, and nee-chan live alone in this house. My parents divorced when i was only 4, so i haven't seen my dad in 11 years. We were fairly new here, we just moved here about a month ago, from seattle, now we live fairly close to houston.... it never rains here, or so i hear, and no snow usually in the winter. This is the PERFECT place for me.
