Kirsty walked home to her family. She had gone through in her head what she
was going to say to them, and how she was going to persuade them to let her
go away for a few days with 'friends'. She had enough trouble persuading
them to let her go to the rock concert last year.
She arrived home, seeing her family sitting at the table. Her Mum, Dad, Dani, Max and Jade.
"Hiya..............erm.....Mum, Dad. Would you let me go away for 2 nights? To Yabbie Creek?" Kirsty asked
"WHAT??" Rhys shouted. He rose off his chair.
"DAD!" Kirsty stopped, she realised that if she wanted to go she would have to get in to her fathers good books. "Well...the kids at the surf club are going, and kids from school. All it is....... is a group of us going to have this..like activity weekend thing. It looks really good, and I really want to go. PLEASE!"
"What! I wanna go!" Max shouted.
"But u can't coz it's all booked up. OK!" Kirsty said through gritted teeth. Max got the idea.
Shelley and Rhys looked at each other.
"Oh come on. Is it that you don't trust me, is that it? I'm not mature enough?" Kirsty asked
"Kirst....you're one of the most maturest person I've ever met. Well, now you are, you weren't last year!" Shelley said.
"Mum, please let me go!"
"God!" Jade said. She stormed out the room.
"MUM??????" Kirsty shouted.
"Well..ok, give me all the details now, and well see. When is it by the way?" Rhys asked.
"Erm..tonight. Simones mum is picking me up at 6:30pm. Is that ok?" Kirsty asked.
"What?" Kirsty did you have to leave it that late?" Rhys asked
"She just told my today. You won't have to worry about me though. I've got my phone if you need me, and I'll give you the name of the hotel when I get it, and....!" Kirstys phone rung. She picked it up and saw "Kane" on the screen. She held it to her ear.
"OOOOHHHHHHHH...Simone....I thought you would ring me. Listen my parents are letting me go, well I think they are, and I need to know the hotel!" Kirsty said to Kane.
"Who? Simone?" Kane said
"YES!!!I need the address" Kirsty coughed.
Kane told her the address, and she wrote it down.
"Thank you Simone. So your mum's picking me up at 6:30pm yes?" Kirsty said
"Yes, I am!" Kane said "I love you!"
"I loooooooo oooh........look at the time.....I have to go now. Cya at 6:30pm" Kirsty hung up. She looked at her parents. "See, all sorted. Heres the address and im going to have a shower now, so if you'll excuse me, then im going upstairs!"
Max looked at Kirsty
"Please Kirst......Just for one night?" he pleaded.
"NO! You have to be over 13 to go!"
"But I'm 13 next week!" he argued
"SEE, you're not 13 yet are you. You're sooooo dumb. Anyway, Bye my buddy oh pal, Maxie, Waxie, Maxine!" She shouted. She patted him on the head, then kissed him and made her way up the stairs. "WOOOOOOHHHHHHHHOOOOOO! Oh, for he's a jolly good fellow, for he's a jolly good fellow, for Maxies a jolly good fellllloooowwwwww, and so say all of us!!"
She dashed upstairs and stumbled as she went. She didn't have time to answer anyone's questions about why she was so happy. After all, she didn't even like Simone!
