Chapter 1
Hey chicas,
How are you all doing? I miss all of you guys. I've been away so long. It feels as though it has been a long time. Sheesh, you wouldn't believe the homework we always have over here. Japan is, overall, the most educational country in the whole wide world, from my point of view anyway. What's been going on? Well if you guys do plan on coming this fall, then you might want to learn something about Japan. A few speak Japanese fluently to us Americans and it's really hard to understand them, well of course the language we know is English, and I know Spanish from my father. Heh, I know what you're all thinking, what an idiota for saying something we all know. Well you know me. Laugh all you want. Just be sure to come and bring Mr. Panda Bits. I love that stuffed animal and my mom told me that I was too big to bring him. Well, I gots to go, yas hear!

Katherine Lopez sealed the letter with her fingers and put a stamp on it, and then put it in the mailbox. She sighed as she turned around and walked away.
"Man, I don't want to go to school! Why can't summer vacation be longer? Why can we not have school at all! Yeah! That oughta be fun! No school! I should protest. What do you think, guys?" Kento Rei Faun announced as he walked with two of his friends. His friends groaned as they all had to listen to Kento complain yet again about school, counting on the tenth time that day.
"Kento, could you stop complaining for one day and be thankful that school doesn't start up until next Monday. We do have seven days left of paradise before we enter what you call hell. Just let it up for one day. That's all we're asking!" Sage Date angrily said to Kento as he grabbed a uniform shirt from a rack and looked at the size.
"So, Sage, you're happy we're going back to school?" Kento asked, faking horror on his face. Sage sighed as he rolled his eyes at his friend's antics.
"As much as I would love for you not to fight, but I say we just drop the subject for now before you two get into any kind of trouble." Rowen Hashiba inquired as he saw the skepticism on each of Kento and Sage's faces.
"Yes mama." Sage and Kento both smirked as Rowen rolled his eyes.
"You both are really funny, you know that…" Rowen walked away to the music section of the store before he was really ready to kill his friends literally.
"Hey, where'd Ro get too?" Cye Mouri asked as he came towards his two friends who were itching to get into an argument.
Ryo Sanada and Mia Koji came behind Cye with baskets full of school supplies.
"Hey, where is Rowen?" Mia asked the same question Cye asked.
"That's what I asked just now." Cye smirked as Kento and Sage looked at their friends.
"He went to the music section. He mighta wanted to get a c.d. or something like that. Probably Mozwart." Kento snickered as he took another shirt from the same rack as Sage.
"Um, Kento, don't you mean Mozart." Ryo corrected Kento.
"Yeah, that's what I said. Mozwart."
Ryo just shrugged at trying to correct his friend and turned towards Mia.
"I'm gonna go ahead and pay for my share. I oughta be back in ten minutes. I'm done with my shopping."
"Okay, Ryo, we'll see you in ten." Mia said as she nodded towards him as he went to the check out station in the front.
"Okay boys, we have ten minutes to get your shopping done and get outta this store." Mia said as she started to help Sage, Cye, and Kento get the things that they needed.
Katherine Lopez, a black haired, blue eyed Latino walked into the mall with a smug look on her face. She pulled her purse upwards and back on her shoulders as she walked into the uniform shop to get some uniforms for school that was about to start up.
As she was looking at the uniforms, she spotted a familiar small crowd of people that was shopping around a rack of boys' uniforms. She smiled when she recognized the two boys but not the woman. She silently walked up to them and greeted them.
"Hello Sage and Kento." She smiled at them as they turned around in a confused state.
Kristina and Jamie Langley walked up to the post office and entered it. Kristina took the keys and opened her mailbox. Kristina stood there as she locked it back up and let Jamie rustle though the mail. As the key turned to lock it back and being taken out of its keyhole, Jamie gasped with surprise. Kristina looked at Jamie as she pocketed her keys and walked in back of Jamie to see what was so surprising. Kristina's eyes got big when she read the name on the return address Katherine Lopez.
"No way!" Kristina squealed as she tried to take the letter out of Jamie's hands, but Jamie's hand had a vice grip on it. "Hey, what's the big deal!"
"I'm gonna open it up, chill will ya…jeez, you act like my little sister more times than I would like ya too."
"Hey, I'm not like her!"
"Hmm, sure you're not." Jamie snickered as she opened up the letter with her long nail. Kristina and Jamie read the letter together and squealed afterwards. "Man, I can't wait to tell Brandi bout this. She'll be so thrilled."
"No doubt. But what if her job persists her to work."
Jamie groaned to that, "Man, you're right, but what if we tell her to tell them it's an emergency."
"Girl, please, you think a bunch of old senile greedy farts will let her get off. They like her to work cuz she doesn't say much to them and is on time for everything."
"Opposite of you." Jamie snickered. Kristina glared at her.
"And why did you say that. I'm always on time."
"Oh yeah, what about those times you had detention for all those tardies you got in one week."
"Oh and like you hadn't had detention for your cell-phone going off. Real cute."
"Shut up, Kris, You're really getting on my nerves, besides it wasn't my fault. It was my mom's for calling me."
Kristina laughed as she walked away and out of the post office "You can blame anyone you want," she said as Jamie followed her, "But you know the rules, no cell-phones allowed."
"Yes boss." Jamie laughed as she got in the passenger seat and Kristina started up the blue Mercedes Benz.
Brandi Reeves sighed, as she had to bust another full table that was too crowded for comfort. Even though she was supposed to get off at seven, her boss made her work an extra three hours or she would get docked pay fifty percent. She obliged and started working again.
Just then, Jamie and Kristina pulled into the parking lot of the diner and got out.
"Man, I hope that Brandi isn't working overtime." Kristina said as she put her keys in her pocket of her denim jeans. Jamie nodded in agreement.
"Oh, but you know that those idiot people will have her on her toes more than anything tonight since it's our mayor's anniversary for being married to the town's goody-two shoe preacher's daughter for more than a decade now."
Kristina rolled her eyes. "Oh yeah, how could I not forget." They both entered the diner and saw that their accusations were right and saw the fat mayor stuffing his face. That's when they saw Brandi, who looked really tired and stressed, trip over the foot of the brat the mayor and the goody-two shoe woman had. Brandi's balance faltered and the food she had in her hands were now plastered against the preacher's daughter and mayor's wife.
Kristina and Jamie wanted to laugh but they were too shocked of what had happened. The mayor got so mad as his wife was crying for her new dress was ruined. Brandi was on the floor when the manager came out and asked what happened, not getting an answer through all the chaos.
"I want her fired! You hear me! I want her f-i-r-e-d! FIRED!" Mayor Thomson gloated as his face turned extremely red. Brandi looked ashamed as she started to clean the mayor's wife.
"I'm so sorry, sir, I'll have this cleaned up in a minute. Just give me time..."
"Time should be extravagant because you are fired, Brandi." The manager quickly told her as he then apologized to the mayor and promised to have someone clean this mess and let them have a free dinner since the accident.
"Fired? How can I be fired for just one small screw up? Last week Tina had dropped 30 plates of food, not to mention the poor guy that she pulverized for saying something to her. Mr. Harris..." Brandi pleaded for her job.
"I don't care. One screw up when the mayor is here means total annihilation for the whole building."
Brandi grew mad at that statement. "That's not right and you all know it."
"It doesn't matter, my dear. I'm the head of this town and what I say goes."
"Grr…" Kristina wanted to just go and punch the living daylights out of the mayor for what he had just said. Jamie put a hand on her shoulder and pulled her back. She looked back at her best friend and grew angry at her cousin. "Hey, what's the big idea. I feel like telling them something cuz that ain't right."
"Let it be. You can't do anything for scum like him."
"Trashing our best friend like that sure makes me wonder if I can."
"It's not you're place."
"Place…place? Excuse me, but I find it my right to be telling him what kind of funky ass mayor he is. He's so fuckin stupid! I hate politics! Those scumbags!"
Jamie winced at her friend's incessant hollering and was trying to calm her down, but it was no use. Kristina was hollering so loud that the mayor glared at her for he had heard the whole thing. Kristina's conscious came back as it told her that she was too loud and looked at the man that was coming towards her in a fast pace.
"Uh…oh…" Kristina bolted for the bathroom as the mayor was blinded by anger.
