Sorry to those reading This Time, but I have a little writers block and I'm just taking a little break. In the meantime, I'm writing this little twoshot! Enjoy!
Saturday
I loved Saturdays. The major relief of waking up and not having to go to school, the streets being lively with children and the free time was welcoming. For some reason, the sun always shined brightest on Saturday than any other day of the week. Maybe it was just my imagination, but I didn't care. Saturdays were the best.
Except when I was bored.
That particular day, all my friends were out and there was nothing else for me to do. My parents were in a meeting for work ("On a Saturday?" I had asked in disbelief) and couldn't tell me to do anything. I wished Moonbase would contact us for a mission or a villain could invade our tree-house. Though, that wouldn't be fair to my other operatives.
Finally, I decided to go down to the park. Maybe someone I knew would be down there and let me play with them. I really craved a game of soccer or something of the sort. As I shut the front door, I saw someone out from the corner of my eye. About time I saw somebody I knew.
"Hey, Numbuh 35!" I called.
The said operative swivelled around, trying to discover who had shouted at him. In the process, he fell over and landed on his bottom. I giggled, ran up to him and extended my hand to help him up. He quickly dusted himself off and smiled at me.
"Sorry about that, Numbuh 23," he apologised.
I waved my hands in front me while saying, "Don't worry about it. What are you doing off Moonbase anyway?"
"My parents had to come here for some family gathering and forced me to come along. I'm the only kid! It's not fair!" Barite whined.
"Huh? What about Katrina?" I asked. Katrina was his little sister by four years.
"Oh, little sis'? She gets to go to a sleepover party with her friends. My parents told me I had to go because "You're a big boy now!" It's annoying!" he replied.
"Don't worry about it, Numbuh 35," I reassured. "I was just heading down to the park. Wanna come?"
Numbuh 35 shook his head. "There's an amusement park down there that just opened. I thought I might as well have a look. After slipping away from my parents, of course."
"Then can I come with?" It was better than sitting in the park alone.
Numbuh 35 shrugged. "Sure, why not?"
When we started walking down the street, the amusement park was clear in the distance. I could see the large Ferris wheel as well as some other rides that made my stomach do a one-eighty. I hoped Bartie wouldn't make us go on the fast, high rides because I had a little fear of heights. Then again, he was a boy.
This time, my stomach did a full rotation. I could feel my face growing red. I was going to an amusement park with a boy. To pre-teens, that meant you were dating, which was a teenager thing. I didn't want to do a teenager thing. Yeah, that's why I was really nervous...
"You okay, Numbuh 23?"
I almost yelped. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine... Sorry, I just remembered something I have to do before my parents come back. I'll see you later!"
With that, I ran all the way back to my house and slammed the door. Why was I such a chicken?
Yes, yes, I know, it sucked. And it was short. Review!
