"Tori! Tori!" I called out to my friend from her backyard. It was late... in a way. No, it was dark. But
I do not care really. I just really needed to see her. Somebody in this world probably knows what I
mean, right? Well, she came out as soon as I called. But she did not look impressed, exactly.
Actually, quite the opposite. Astral told me this would happen. "Why are you in my backyard?" She
was really not impressed. "I just wanted to talk," I said, trying to not feel disappointed. I heard Ms.
Meadows calling out to her daughter. "Come inside!" I ran for the trees out back, as Tori walked
back inside, both of us saying goodbye.
I'm starting to dislike that word.
