Book One "Abby"

Chapter One "Abby"

Things can't always be perfect. But things for me usually go well. I have a family of four. They consist of me, my father Paul, my mother Odette, my little annoying 10 year old sister Elanie, and let's not forget my little dog Pat. My father works as an Engineer, My mom works as a Travel agent so every year my family gets a free trip somewhere. I am 13 years old and my favorite colour is green. My hair is brown and shoulder length. It is completely strait. Strait is boring. I wish I had curly hair just like lucky Elani. Even her existence spoils her. My eyes are a deep aqua blue and my face is… just a face. A nose, mouth and two ears. I have a couple Freckles here and there too. Mostly above my nose.
This morning I was quickly scurrying around trying to get ready for school as quick as possible. Its not that I was running late, its just I like having free time in the morning. And usually when it is my turn I pulled out the 'notebook' and wrote my response in it.
What is the notebook? The notebook is like the soul of me and my 3 best friends. We write EVERYTHING in there. What is happening in our families, our problems, and just about what we think, and ESPESSIALLY secrets. So today it was my turn. "ABBY!!! Are you up yet?!" Called mom up the staircase.
"Already up mom! And I'm ready!" I Replied.
Then a silence.
"Wow… ok, well tell me when you are leaving so that I know you have left." Mom said with a sigh of surprised disbelief.
"Alrighty!" I replied again.
Then I pulled out the notebook and my favorite pen with the green fluff on the end. I read what Gwennan (One of my group of 4) had wrote in her neat writing I knew I was jealous of but would never admit.

Hello everyone. This is Gwen xx.
This week NOTHING has happened at all. I have been really bored and have had nothing to do. But it did notice that my neighbor Jane Patterson has been acting real strange. Its hard to explain. Just the way she looks Suspicious when other people are near her. Sure its nothing though.
Talk to ya'll later!! Xx.o

Hmm. I haven't had much to do either. Nothing interesting anyways... Maybe I will write about my school protect? Nah, too boring. I'll write about my new clothes.

Hello everyone. I have also done nothing. I did get a new cute pink shirt the other day though and some jeans-

"Abby!!!!!"
It was Elani.
"WHAT!" I replied angrily.
"Ugh, why are you writing in that stupid book, about your boyfriend?" Elani teased.
"Get to the point tiny twit" I breathed out my teeth.
"Ok, ok cool it! Jeez, I just wanted to ask if you wanted a ride with me and Dani."
"Oh," I replied. "What time is it?"
"Well, school starts at 9:00 so-"
"I KNOW what time school STARTS, I wanna know what time it is Einstein!" I cut in.
"It's 8:45" Elani replied in a sarcastic voice, "So are you in or not?"
"Oh!" I gasped with surprise at how late it was. "I'm in. Just let me grab my things."
"Ok well hurry up!" nagged Elani as she stalked out the room.
I shoved my things in my black, blue and green (of course!) bag and ran to the door, staggered down the stairs and out the front door yelling as I ran
"LEAVING MOM!"
And I closed the door and climbed in the car with Elani and Dani.
