Kristina's Party

“What are we going to do!? She is going to find out!”

“No she won't, we need to keep calm. Act natural.”

“Act natural? Act natural! We are so close and it’s all crumbling around us! All she has to do is ask Lola and-”

“We will have to get to Lola first. We just have to keep it a secret for a little bit. Everything is going to be fine.”

“I don’t think so, Lola can’t keep her mouth shut! For all we know she’s already spilled it. How did she even find out?”

‘I’m not sure, Nick could have leaked it to her. You know he has a crush on her.”

“Oh, why is this happening now!”

“It’s going to be ok.”

“We should never have trusted Nick! Of course he was going to tell Lola. The surprise is ruined!”

“It’s not ruined. She still doesn’t know about the party. We can tell Lola to keep quiet and it’s not really Nick’s fault. Everything is under control.”

“Lola is her twin sister! They have that whole thing about twin telepathy, or something, of course she’s gonna know! We can’t keep it a secret any more!”

A phone rings. 

“Hello? I see… ok… bye.”

“What is it?”

“Nothing, Bob just needed a ride. It’s party time.”

  • Definition of Secret

    The definition of secret is something that is kept or meant to be kept unknown or unseen by others. If you are told a secret it means you can’t tell anyone. Except you always tell your best friend.
  • Sinking Away

    The sky started pastel blue,
    White clouds drifted by,
    Peering through green branches,
    Mountains faded ahead.

    Crickets filled the air with noise,
    They left no room for the other sounds,
    The air was alive but still,
  • Alive

    I feel alive when I walk outside in fall. When brightly colored leaves are falling all around me as the wind picks up. I feel alive when leaves crunch under my feet and I can smell the cold.
