Chapter 2: Not What I Wanted
Yasmin walked down to the smoothie bar the next morning, thinking of what she was gonna say. While listening to Emergency by Paramore on her iPod, she was deep in thought. 'Should I say,' she thought. 'Hey, I got a letter from Red Girl Records to work there for the summer, and I really wanna go.' Before she knew it, she was at the smoothie bar. She took her earplugs from her ear and walked over to her friends, who were all enjoying smoothies. When they saw her, Jade said, "Hey Yas." "Hey," Yasmin said sitting down and putting her iPod back in her tote bag. "What's up?" "Nothin' much," Sasha said, watching as Eitan put an Apple smoothie down in front of Yasmin. "Just wonderin' what you have to tell us." "Okay," Yasmin said pulling the letter from the bag. "Here." Cloe took the letter and the girls gathered around her to read it. After they were done, Sasha said, "Uh, that's great. But, this is our last summer." "I know," Yasmin said as she put the letter back in her bag. "But, I really wanna go. Come on, this could be my only chance to work with Melanie C, and I've always wanted to work with her. And plus, I wanna own my own record label someday, and this could be good practice." "But Yasmin," Cloe said. "Focus on this. It's our last summer together before we go to college. Aren't you thinking about that?" "I am thinking about that," Yasmin said as she stood up. "Look, I thought my best friends would be happy and wouldn't care if I went. But now, I don't even know why I came to ask you. I'm going anyway." She picked up her bag and stormed off. "She doesn't even care," Jade said. "That's just like Yasmin." Cloe nodded and Sasha said, "I can't believe this. She's going to England, and this is our last summer together. That's low." The girls finished their smoothies.
Yasmin stomped into her house and slammed the door behind her. "What did the girls say sport?" Joey asked from the living room. "I don't wanna talk about it." Yasmin said going upstairs. She slammed her bedroom door behind her. She got onto her computer and signed into her e-mail account. She quickly replied by saying that she would be coming to England to work with them for the summer, and that her mom would be possibly coming too. As soon as Yasmin was finished typing, her mom walked into her room. Yasmin turned around and said, "Ever heard of knocking?" "I'm ignoring that," Elena said with a smile. "Replying to the Red Girl thing?" "Yeah," Yasmin said. "Mom, you're still going with me right?" "Yeah," Elena answered. "Emily's gonna stay with Cathy for a while and Joey's going on a business trip this weekend." "Okay," Yasmin said. "Thanks." "No problem," Elena said. "Now, dinner's ready. Coming?" "Yeah," Yasmin said. "Let me send this off." "Okay." Elena said. She left out and Yasmin clicked send. After doing that, she went downstairs, excited that she would be going to Red Girl Records for the summer.
