Chapter Five
Josh called Mina the next day. " Well, did you sleep well last night?" " Yes, I got so much sleep, that it started to make me think about you. So whatcha gonna be doing to day? I have to go to work, but, Ill call you when I get home." After Mina hung up with Josh, she went to the mall. She stopped by Tristas store to get something to wear for free (Trista owns her own clothing store. Most of the sailor scouts go there to get clothes, and try to beg Trista to give them bargains and clothes for free). "Please Trista. I really need something to wear and you know I don't get paid until next week. I only have five hundred dollars to my name. And my aunt forbids me to spend it. Its my groceries money." Trista rolled her eyes at the teen. " Then why did you come here? You know that my new years resolution was to stop giving my clothes away to people like you."
Mina begins to pout. " Well how about, I pay you a small fee." "How about you pay me full price!" Trista yells. Mina takes out her wallet. " I want those orange and brown jeans with that orange silk top. Ill give you ten dollars for it." " That stuff is all name brand and if I ring it up for you it would be about two hundred dollars plus tax. Forget it. Its no deal."
As soon as Mina gets home she hangs her clothes up that she fussed her way into getting from Trista. Her phone rings. " Hello," " Hey Mina I'm bored over here so I was wondering if you could come over." Just then in the background Mina could hear some one. "Josh I'm here. How about you and me go...." " Mina can I call you back? My moms home." Josh lies. "Josh that sounds like Michelle." "No its not. It's my mom. Bye." Josh hangs up on Mina.
I don't believe this. Josh just lied to me. I know who I heard back there. And I think he's hiding something from me. I thought I could trust him. Mina's aunt comes in her room. Mina hangs the phone up and turns around. "Mina, I thought I should tell you that your form from UNC of Chapel Hill just arrived. Would you like to do the honors and open it?" " No you can open it for me." Mina's aunt tears open the big yellow envelope. She slowly pulls out the paper and unfolds it.
"You got in. They will be happy to let you know that you are accepted." Mina hugs her aunt. Just wait till everyone hears the great news. Suddenly Minas mind reverts back to Josh. Mina picks up her keys. And put her coat on. " Aunt Jenny, I'm going to tell Serena and the girls the good news. Ill be back in few."
When Minas gets in the car she begins to dial Amara's number. " Hello." " Hey Amara this is Mina. I wondering if you knew where Michelle is right now? I wanted to ask her something. " I think she said she was going to see Josh. I'm not sure, but Ill tell her you called." " That's okay. Bye." Mina hangs up and turns the car around. I'm going to Josh's house.
