SNAKES AND LADDERS
Chapter 2
Tyson looked at the girls who were waving to Max.
'Wow, did you forget to tell us your sisters are so damn sexy?' asked Tyson.
'Is there anything I should know before making the first impression?' asked Ray checking his clothes and hair.
'They are my sisters, guys. And ya, just one thing Josephine, the right one, hates beyblade and related stuff especially Kai. No personal issue, its just that Joanne just loves Kai, in a hero-worship kind of way, and so Josephine has to hate him. Sorry Kai,' Max said, smiling.
Ray and Tyson looked downcast.
Josephine had blonde hair till her waist. She had green eyes. A perfect figure. Really slim. She wore a short green-shimmery top, regular jeans an a hot-pink jacket tied around her waist. She was wearing pink platform heels. She looked excited. She was talking non-stop to Joanne, who was nodding carelessly.
Joanne had jet-black hair. Black eyes. She wore a navy blue jacket over a grey t-shirt and cargo pants. she was wearing green-black sneakers. Her hair was tied in an untidy ponytail, which reached just below her shoulders.
Why? Oh why? Why did the oh-so-beautiful Josephine had to hate beyblade?
'Well, she will like me. I am sure,' said Ray confidently.
'Yeah sure and so will Mariah when she comes to know of your sudden liking,' teased Tyson. 'Its me she'll love.'
'Shut up,' said Ray. 'I don't love Mariah. Its she whose after me.'
'Max, how are you?' asked Joanne hugging his brother. 'Shit why are you growing so tall? You are giving me an inferiority complex.'
'How am I looking, bro?' asked Josephine. 'Oh fuck, my mobile network's not working.'
'Fine,' said Max answering both their questions and ignoring the add-ons. 'Well, these are Tyson, Ray and Kai.'
'Hi,' greeted his sisters, smiling.
They took a cab home.
'So is it true that your Grandpa owns a dojo? Man, I am going to ask him to train me,' Joanne said to Tyson.
'You'd better not. He's a terrible show-off,' said Tyson, shuddering at the imaginable condition of his image at the the thought of Grandpa tutoring Joanne. 'Yup,' he said, 'you'd better not.'
Josephine was asking Kai, 'So, are there any good malls near our place?'
Kai said, looking out of the window, 'Hmm.'
Josephine turned to Ray and Max and asked, 'Is that supposed to be a 'yes'?'
Max laughed.
Life sure was going to be a 'Snakes and Ladders' game with his two sisters around.
