When I walk down the street I feel like I'm the only one there. I ignore the sounds of the busy streets and concentrate on getting home. My name in Namy I'm 17 and in 11 grade. Nothing much else to tell I got on the bus with my friends in front of me we had to stand up because there wasn't much room to sit down. Which when you think about it is kind of sad. I looked out the window as the houses pass us "Hey….HEY!" I look over "What's wrong Namy? You haven't said anything for a while; you can talk to me if you need to." I smiled at my friend Suki "Nothing's wrong I was just thinking is all" she stared at me for a minute like she didn't believe me but then smiled and looked out the window. "So, you look forward to the end of semester tests?" I laughed "Does anyone look forward to those?" we both broke out in a laugh.
I pulled the string when it came to my stop. I waved to suki and walked up to my house. I had to hurry and get ready we were going over to my friend's mom's house to eat dinner. My mom and her mom work together and they wanted to have a celebration because they won their last case. Yeah my mom is a lawyer I put my bag in my room and went over to my desk to check my e-mail. There was a few messages that I took care of and then I got off and walked over to my bed I laid down and grabbed the controller on my nightstand. There wasn't much to do until my mom got home I turned on the TV as soon as the light from the TV came on my cell phone rang I got up and checked who it was my mom was calling me. "Hello?" "Hi hon, you home?" "Yeah I'm home mom, just got in the door not too long ago you need something?" "Yeah, I need to to go ahead and head over to your friends I'll be over in a bit I already called she said it would be fine." "Alright mom, I'll get my stuff and head out now see you when you get there" we said our goodbyes and I closed my phone and put in on the nightstand. I walked over to my closet and got out a black skirt and a black sleeveless shirt and changed out of my school uniform. Mom would have had a fit if I went over in my school close.
I got my bag and walked out of the house, I made it to the end of my driveway before I got another call I check again this time it was Kina "hey" "hi, you on your way over?" "yeah I just got out of my house" "hey just wait there mom we are one road away mom said she would come get you" no sooner did she say that did I see her mom's car coming up the road Kina waved to me from the front seat I smiled and waved back. Her mom came to a stop and I got in the car, "Sorry, you have to sit with my younger brother hope it's okay" kina said as she looked back at me "It's fine, I don't mind" "Now don't get mad at me but my older brother changed his plans he is going to be there" I looked at her with wide eyes she put on the I'm sorry don't kill me look. We couldn't stand her older brother he was 19. He loved to mess with us with his friend Miroku, Yeah he was named after his dad. I wanted to hit my head on the back of the seat "Now, Now don't worry we made him promise that he wouldn't pull anything tonight" Kina's mom said I felt a little better she always made him leave us alone she even got kina a lock on her door so he couldn't mess with us when we had our sleep over's. I really didn't know what we ever did to him for the way he treated use, I think it was worse on his sister because he would always try to embarrass her so bad. I looked out the window and remembered the time kina had her boyfriend over oh it was HORRIBLE! She wanted to die, everything that her brother told him, I punched him in the gut for that one. Come to think of it kina and he are still together.
We pulled up into the drive way me and kina got our seat belts off and ran in when her mom stopped the car. Kina turned around at the door "you need any help mom?" her mother looked up "No it's fine you, and namy go on up to your room. "K" Kina turned around and ran up the to her room I was sitting on the edge of her bed waiting for her "what you want to do?" I looked around "we can play cards and listen to some music if you want?" "Sure, nothing really to do" she grabbed the CD's and I got the cards I sat down and got the mat spread out so we could keep the cards from going every were about that time I heard someone coming down the hall. "Crud!" I thought in my head Kina turned around her brother and Miroku where standing at her door "hey sis" he smiled and then looked down and me "hey namy" I glared at him "hi..." Miroku smiled I looked over at him "hey Miroku" I didn't have as much of a problem with him at least he would apologies for it besides kina told me once that her brother talked him into doing a lot of what they did. Kina frowned "You better not be up to something" kina said as she glared at her brother "I'm not" Miroku came in and sat down "you want to play to?" I asked "sure" said Miroku as kina sat down and started to separate the cards and mix them up I looked at Minoru "You want to play to?" I asked in a half hearted attempted to be nice he shrugged and sat down next to Miroku we played for a while kina and her brother where competitive so me and Miroku steered clear of that. I could see the look kina was giving her brother, it kind of scared me but at the same time it was funny me and Miroku got to a point in the game where we just sat and watched them play. "You cheated!" minoru said as his sister sat with a smirk on her face from beating him "No you just suck" I looked at Miroku and he looked at me we couldn't take it any more we broke out laughing it was just to fun minoru gave Miroku the death stare and he stopped he tried it on me but I just keep laughing "Is that supposed to scare me?" Kina laughed "You failed at that one" minoru looked back at his sister "Shut up!" I stopped and looked at him "come on it's just a game, it's supposed to be fun." "Where is the fun in it if you lose?" I stared at him for a minute then sighed "You really don't get that do you?" just about that time kina's mom came in "dinner is ready we" we all got up I helped kina clean up the cards.
When we where done we walked out of the room "So is Miroku's brother coming over?" kina smiled "yeah" I smiled "it's been a while sense you two started dating hu?" "Yeah, and dad still wants to shoot himself" we laughed "I'm sure he will get use to it someday" we made it to the kitchen I sat down and kina help bring the plates over to us. I would have but her mother would have a heart attack" a guest is not supposed to help with supper!" She would say kina's mother was really nice I enjoyed being over when I could her dad was kind of tight on things I remember hearing him scream all the way down the hill when he found out kina was dating miroku's older brother suko kina sat down next to me when the everyone had their plate kina's dad looked over at me "you haven't fun in school kid?" I looked up at him "you must be kidding?" he laughed "that's what kina said" we all laughed kina's mother sat down and we started to eat then the bell rang "I'll get it said kina as she ran to the door her dad had the shoot me look so I think he was expecting it to be suko I looked it was him and my parents kina's mom had already got them all plates and had them at the table.
It was a nice meal afterwards me and kina cleaned up the dishes it was her brother and miroku's turn but it would end up just being Miroku. We didn't think that would have been fair so me and kina took the job. We were cleaning when kina looked over at me "you want to see if it's okay with your mom if you stay the night?" she smiled hopefully "Sure, let me go ask real fast" I went into the living room kina followed behind to ask her mom if it was okay even though I knew her mom wouldn't care her dad told me once that I should just move in with as much time as I spend over. "Mom" kina said as she ran to her mother "her mom looked up at her "what is it kina?" "Is okay if namy stays the night?" she smiled "I don't mind I looked at my mom with hopeful eyes "I don't mind" she said with a smile. Kina's dad laughed and looked at his wife "see told you they would ask" I looked over at her brother he was smiling for some reason. I got a bad feeling in my stomach. When he smiled it mainly meant something bad was going to happen. Me and kina finished with the dishes and then went into the living room to join everyone kina sat in suko's lap here dad had his eyes on him I sat next to my mom and dad kina's brother sat next to me for some reason my dad was looking at him I didn't question why I just had a good time. I followed my mom and dad out kina came with me to say good bye to suko and his brother Miroku me and kina gave Miroku a hug and I gave my parents hugs and they all left. Kina was sad to see suko leave but she was happy that he came. I watched my parents and everyone leave until I couldn't see them. I turned around to go in with kina when I bumped into something "hey!" I said before I looked at what I ran in to it was kina's brother he extended his hand to help me up "sorry about that, didn't mean to scare you" I took his hand and he pulled me up off the ground "I wasn't scared!" I protested "I was just surprised" he smirked "yeah, yeah sure" I walked back to the house and he followed behind. Kina stuck her head out the door "come on you two are so SLOW!" "Were coming!" we both said in union and we ran into the house. Kina's mom closed to door behind us. "This is going to be a fun night " I said to kina as I walked into her room.
