April was lying on her couch in her apartment. She was watching Spongebob Squarepants and watched as Spongebob and Patrick try not to go on the Fiery Fist o' Pain at Gloveworld. She started to get a little misty-eyed because she realized she had no friends except the TMNB (Teenage Mutant Ninja Bunnies). She then changed the channel to Full House. It only got worse because Michelle was saying goodbye to her black friend; he was moving to Texas. She watched it and then at the end Michelle made a new friend.
"I wish I could do that," April told herself. "I'm stressed again. I'm talking to myself."
All of a sudden, Ding- dong! the doorbellnrang. April looked through the peephole and saw a girl who looked her age. She had a lavendar sweatar, an almost white skirt that was also purple, and a white bow on her bleach blonde hair. April unlocked her door.
"Hi!" The girl said. "I'm Tina. I live in the apartment across from you. I noiced you were new here so I decided to give you a house-warming gift. A keylime pie!"
April looked and noticed the pie in Tina's hands.
"I'm new in town I have no idea what I'm doing. Do you know any good public schools around here?"
"Well, school just ended! But you can go to the school I go to when it starts again!" Tina said.
"Ya know, I think we are going to be great friends!" April said.
"Hey, ya wanna go get some ice cream?"
"Sure!"
Tina and April went to a nearby TCBY. April got some German chocolate ice cream. Tina got cotton candy flavored ice cream.
"So, April, what do you do for a job?" Tina asked.
"I work at Publix," April answered.
"I'm a lifeguard."
"Really? How do afford those expensive chlothes?"
"My parents are millionares. They were are never around, so they don't even bother coming to our apartment. Well, now my apartment. They send me half the money they get from work. Plus they own all the apartments on the block!"
"Whoa... so you're rich?"
"Yes. Ooh ooh ooh! OMG! It's Andrew Andrews!" Tina squealed as she pointed to a brown-haired boy their age. "Ugh, what a surprise: Ashley's with him too." Tina groaned as she pointed to a dark-brown haired girl next to him. She was flirting with him.
"I have a feeling she's your rival. Is she like, his girlfriend?" April asked.
"She wishes!" Tina said. "So, do you like any cute boys?"
"Well I once saw this cute rabbit."
"HAHA! You're funny!" Tina laughed. "Bunnies are adorable!"
"Hey, um, I think Ashley's coming your way."
"Heeey, Tina! Who's your friend?" Ashley asked.
"Ashley, April. April, Ashley," Tina introduced.
"Well, April, welcome to Tennessee!" Ashley said.
"Actually, I've lived here all my life. I'm only new to the city," April corrected.
"Ooooh..."
"Well, we should be going! Goodbye, Ashley!" Tina said.
"But I haven't finished my ice cream!" April said.
"Neither have I but I got a text from my grandma!"
"You're grandma texts you?" Ashley questioned.
"Yeah. She has an iPhone 5. She wants to get in with the cool people in Bingo."
Tina grabbed April by the arm and April grabbed her and Tina's ice cream. They exited TCBY and not 30 seconds after they left April asked, "I thought you said she was your rival. She was being nice."
"Because Andrew was there," Tina said. "But that doesn't matter. You wanna have a sleepover?"
"Of course!" April said.
"Great! Can I get your number?"
"Sure." April put her number in Tina's phone.
"Oh, by the way, what did your grandma text you?"
"Nothing. I made it up because Andrew was starting to leave. Ashley would've been herself after he left."
"Ok! When's the sleepover?"
"Umm... How's Friday?"
"Ok! See you then!"
