A sticky situation

While blowing a bubble, Mina managed to get her gum stuck in both hers and Serena's hair! And as if things weren't already bad enough an enemy shows up giving them no time to pull apart. Can they work together as a team?

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Mina sighed as she looked at the time on her pink watch and realised just how late Serena was. The hands ticked around slowly on its white surface, the numbers clearly printed in bold lettering.

She slowly chewed the gum in her mouth, savouring both the strawberry flavour and the smooth texture that it beheld in her mouth. She wrapped its slippery surface around her tongue and blew. The bubble expanded outside of her mouth and in front of her face before it burst into a heap that hung near her mouth. Pulling it back into her mouth she continued to do the same thing again.

It was a slow Sunday afternoon, the streets were empty while only the occasional person passed by every now and then leaving her completely and utterly bored. Where was her blond pig tailed friend anyway?

The sun seemed to be hidden under the immense amount of clouds telling Mina that it was most likely going to rain their afternoon. It was around mid afternoon, it wouldn't take long until it started to rain. She thought about moving off of the park bench where she now sat and into one of the near by stores but thought better of it. Serena wouldn't be long and plus if she did move her friend would never be able to find her even if she had a map!

"Yoo hoo!" A voice called.

Mina looked up to see Serena running towards her glowing with excitement. Mina smiled and laughed. She raised herself to her feet to greet her friend as she approached. Serena stopped just in front of her. The poor girl was out of breath, she looked to be hot and flustered. It wasn't a warm day but it wasn't cold either as they both stood their in summer dresses.

"Nice to see you finally turned up Serena" Mina said jokingly. She giggled, covering her mouth with her hand.

Serena smiled and rubbed the back of her head and she straightened up. "Sorry to keep you waiting" she said. "But Darien just wouldn't let me go."

Mina stopped giggling and instead wiggled her eyebrows. "Oh…I get it. It was one of THOSE occasions!"

Serena shook her head but knew her friend was only joking. There was no need for an explanation when both already knew that Serena would never do something to destroy her innocence when she was so young.

"I may love Darien, but there ain't any way he's having that for a while yet!" Serena stated matter-of-factly.

Mina smiled at her friend and grabbed her hand. "Yeah, yeah. Less yakking and more shopping!"

Serena smiled and laughed as her friend lead her across the almost empty road and onto the other side where all of the shops where. Serena's eyes lit up as they passed some of the first few windows. Designer clothes, expensive jewellery and things that glittered. She would have to remind herself to take Darien shopping with her some time. These shops had everything that a girl could possibly want and more.
