Chapter 5; What Can We Do?
Miranda the next day walked to school alone. She was flooding with tears. Her heart was torn in half; she lost her dad because they got into a BIG divorce. And they divorced over a lifetime vacation? How stupid! She was almost to the school when two shadows approached her.
"Miranda! What's wrong with you? Did the plan not work well?" Lizzie asked.
"Well, it didn't work much. my mom and dad divorced."
"Oh, Miranda I'm SO sorry! I'll do anything to help your parents to get back together. How about you Gordo, you too?"
"Well it was your idea." Gordo explained trying to get off the subject. Lizzie nudged him. "I guess we can work something out."
"Thanks, but what can we do? He could be gone forever. I mean, it's like he just, hates her for what she said and it's hard for them to get back together." Miranda sighed.
"Don't worry, Miranda. We'll find a way to stop this once and for all." Lizzie hugged her best friend. They went to the school a moment later.
Meanwhile, back at the McGuire's.
"Wait, he moved? From his own family! He owed me six bucks!" Sam McGuire explained. Jo McGuire rolled her eyes.
"This is the saddest thing a girl could ever get." Matt and Sam stared at her. "You're right it can't be the saddest thing." 2 seconds later Lizzie entered her house sad and upset.
