Chapter 10: Spring Forward
It's spring time and so we don't need our thick winter jackets anymore which is good. I walk outside and it starts pouring. I groan and go inside to get an umbrella. I walk outside with my candy umbrella. It's always pretty when it rains, but not when there's a thunder storm. I like walking around when there's just small showers.
I just noticed something, Dylan and Chloe left this morning. Oh well, I hope they have fun in a new town. I walk around with my umbrella in one hand and my other hand playing with my yoyo. It's spins up and down and I catch it each time it comes back up. There aren't many people out because it's raining. I see a dandelion puff and pick it up.
I wish more people would come to our town. I blow on the puff and all the little pieces of it fly away in the rainy town. I wonder why many people don't live in our town. I then trip over something and fall in the damp grass. I look behind me and see a weed, maybe that's why. I walk around the town picking up weeds all over the place, man there are a lot of them.
It takes about an hour but I finish and right when I finish it stops raining. That's a big coincidence. Everyone starts coming outside now, I put my umbrella in my pockets and keep playing with my yoyo. I walk to the beach still playing with my yoyo, bored to death. I notice something shiny on the edge of the shore. I walk over there and pick up a bottle. I open it and find a piece of paper that says:
Dear reader,
All the stars will align and everything will make sense.
Sincerely, Someone.
What? This doesn't make sense. I put it in my pocket to examine that later. I look at the ocean and see something weird, something sticking up in the water. Some kind of FIN, IT'S A SHARK! I get out my fishing rod and throw the bobber in the water. The shark sees and the keeps tapping it. Finally he gets aught on it (somehow he does) and I reel him in. YES NO ONE STARTLED ME THIS TIME! "Hey Alex, nice job!" I yelp and drop the shark back in the water.
I turn around and see Tess I give her a look, "Sorry…" She says.
I sigh and say, "It's fine, it's not the first time that's happened." I push the hair out of my face, "So what's up?" I ask putting my fishing rob back in my pocket.
"The town looks a little, different now." She says.
"Yeah," I say, "I pulled out the weeds, and it just rained so the flowers are brighter." I take out my yoyo and play around with it.
"Yeah…" She says.
"Um are you ok?" I ask.
"Yeah well I'm just kind of upset." She says.
"About what?" I ask.
"Oh it's nothing." She says.
"Tess I'm you're best friend you can tell me anything." I say.
The clock tower rings, it's twelve PM now, "I got to go get ready for tomorrow, I'll tell you later." She says.
"Ok, bye." I say and she runs off. What's tomorrow? I go down to the Town Hall and look at the bulletin board: TOMORROW IS THE FLEA MARKET. It says. Oh ok….
