“Addy!” My brother yelled, his voice echoing from the bottom of the stairs. Your friend is here!” I shut my book closed and walked downstairs. “Yes?” Mike pointed to the front door, pencil in his hand. It’s the end of summer break, and all my friends are moving schools; so my best friend, Lila, had come to say goodbye. I opened the door, and smiled. “Addy!” Lila wrapped her arms around me, not noticing she was slowly suffocating me. “Guess what, i got you something! And…” She turned around, revealing Sasha, Annabel, Autumn, and Yuki! “Guys! what’re you doing here?” I was happy and confused at the same time. “Ad, come on, you know we wouldn’t miss your birthday! Plus, it’s almost school. And we had to plan something-” “Sleepover party!” Yuki blurted out. “Yuki! Autumn laughed. It was supposed to be a surprise!” “Wait- you guys really planned a party? ..for me?” “we had no choice! You’re our best friend, Ad!” Lila said, adjusting her backpack on her shoulders.“Addy, hun? My mother walked in, plastering her cheesy adult smile onto her face. “Oh, girls, do come in.” The small crowd of tweens squished through the old, worn out door. “Now, what would you girls like for dinner?” my mother asked as they quickly unpacked their things. “I know! Pringleeesss!” Yuki yelled, her voice echoing through the house. “Haha! Yuki, we can’t have pringles for dinner!” I said, trying to hold in a snort. “Ok then! Hot buurriitttoos!” “Then burritos it is!” said Caroline, attempting a french accent. Sasha giggled. “Come on, let’s go up to your room!” “Coming!” I said, trotting up the stairs. It was a blast. We played twister, poker, 5 rounds of uno, 6 rounds of monopoly, and 10 rounds of never have I ever. And soon, it was dinner. “Finally! I’ve been waiting for this part my entire life… dinner!” Yuki hollered, dancing around the dining table. “C’mon Yuki, sit dowwnn!” I loved my friends. They were awesome. “Delivery Delivery! Your burritos have arrived!” Caroline said, placing the steaming burritos in the middle of the table. “I call the fat one!” Autumn exclaimed, grabbing the plate from the middle of the table. “I call the non-fat one!” Annabel boomed, rattling the table as she quickly got up to seize a burrito. “I call… the sort-of-fat one..?” Lila said, acting as if it was a question and waiting for an answer. Yuki galloped into the dining room, coming from the bathroom - suddenly looking sarcastically depressed. “I-I got the lonely depressed burrito..? Yay! He kept talking to me about how he was so lonely, and needed a friend. So, i’ll eat him!” We blinked in confusion. “Oh wait, why doesn’t that sound right?” Yuki thought out loud. Annabel cackled. “Yuki, your lonely-depressed burrito is getting cold. Sit down!” Yuki sat down and took the biggest bite of a burrito on earth. She looked like she had a fat guinea pig in her mouth. And then, of course, my mother stepped inside. “So, how are the burritos? What do you think? Should i try out for AGT?” “Yup! They’re good! Lila announced. Wait, what’s AGT?” “It’s America’s Got Talent, of course!” She looked proud. “Um… sure!” Lila replied, tucking hair behind her ear. “Well anyways, Autumn interrupted, changing the topic. I’m done. Who wants to watch a movie?” “Ooh! Yes please!” Sasha exclaimed, getting out of her seat and standing up in front of the table. Soon, we were all sitting on the couch eating popcorn. That was the best night of my life. Tomorrow, I’m attending my first day at Bridgerton High, my middle school. I’m super nervous, because none of my friends will be there. Yuki’s going to a private school in the north of buffalo, and Autumn’s parent’s made her try out for a religious school. Annabel’s moving to a school in Canada that’s supposed to be really strict. And Sasha’s homeschooled. It was hopeless. I walked upstairs, went into my room, and flopped onto my bed. “Sweetie! Your uniform’s arrived! Come try it on!” my mom yelled. I went back downstairs, and looked at the clothes laid out on the couch. There was a white polo shirt, a navy blue jumper, a gray skirt and tights. “Well, at least it’s better than I expected..” I murmured, picking up the clothes and taking them into my room. 3 minutes later, I came out. It was very uncomfortable, and I had to loosen up the skirt, stretch out the tights and adjust the jumper. “Ugh!” I squawked. Was this really necessary?
