***The Carnival*** Chapter Four~ The Telephone Call. ~
When Matt and Mimi got home from the concert, they were really tired, especially Matt. He told Mimi that he was going to have a nap, and to wake him up to cook dinner in an hour or so. "Okay, my Matt," she said.
After Matt had been asleep for about half an hour, the phone ran. Mimi grabbed it off the receiver and put it to her mouth.
"Hello," Mimi gushed.
The voice on the other end sounded vaguely familiar. "Hello. This is Sora Takenouchi. Can I please speak to Matt?"
Mimi changed her voice to a sweet little lady and replied, "I'm sorry love, but you appear to have the wrong number." Then she hung up the phone.
Matt walked out a few minutes later and asked, "Who was on the phone?"
"No one important, " Mimi reassured him. "Someone who had the wrong number."
No sooner had Mimi finished speaking, than the phone rang again. This time it was Tai. He was calling about Matt's birthday. They were planning a party for Wednesday night. Tai was just checking that everything was still okay for the party. The talked for a little while and then Matt got off to cook dinner.
During dinner Mimi was talking about Matt's party.
"Will you sing?" she asked. "Will we play spin the bottle and Truth or Dare? How much food will there be? Will there be prizes? And what about pin the tail on the donkey? Are we playing that?" Matt was baffled and tried to answer all her questions, but soon grew tired and went to bed. As he was shutting his eyes he heard Mimi walking in the hallway.
"I can't wait!" she whispered.
