Chap 6: Playing Matchmaker
Over the next 4 weeks, Maisha and Jenny became good friends. Not the best of friends but really good pals ever less. They always tried to include Brad in stuff they did but, sometimes it didn't work out. This was the case with the sleepover.
Maisha had come over to Jenny's house for a study session on a Friday with Jenny and Brad with an overnight bag.

"Hey Maisha, what's in the bag?" Brad asked when he first saw it.

Maisha thinking he wouldn't really care about it said, "I'm spending the night here with Jenny."

"Professor Wakman let you invite her?" Brad asked Jenny incredulously.

"Well I haven't asked her yet." Jenny said ashamedly.

"You haven't asked her yet?" Brad and Maisha said in unison.

"No but I can ask her now." Jenny stated plainly and went up to ask her mom.
Professor Wakman was working on her latest project in her lab when Jenny found her. "Mom, can I invite my friend to spend the night?" Jenny asked hurriedly.

"Why would you want Brad to spend the night when he lives right next door, XJ-9?"

"No Mom. Not Brad, Maisha."

"You've made a new friend?" the Professor wanted to know

"Yes and she's downstairs waiting for your answer." Jenny told her not real sure what her reaction would be.

"Let me meet her and I'll decide."

"Thanks Mom. You're the greatest." Jenny exclaimed giving her Mom a hug.

Meanwhile, Brad and Maisha were downstairs waiting on Jenny while trying figure out what to talk about when Tuck, Brad's younger brother walked in.

"Hi, Brad. Who are you?" he asked Maisha.

"How did you get in?" asked Brad.

"The door was opened. Anyway are you Brad's girlfriend? Because if you are..." Brad had jumped up and covered Tuck's mouth mid-sentence.

"You really need to go Tuck. Don't you have better thing to do?" Brad told him leading him back to the door.

"Wait, Brad let him stay. He's funny." Maisha told him.

"Yeah she thinks I'm funny." Tuck told him. "Don't you?"

Brad ignored his question and said "Alright you can stay."

Tuck ran to the couch were Maisha was sitting.

"Anyway Tuck, I'm Maisha and I'm not Brad's girlfriend no matter what he says." Maisha told him. "While we're on the subject, has he had a girlfriend?"

"Do not answer that question, Tuck!" Brad warned.

"Well actually he's..." Tuck started but Brad interrupted him.

"Tuck!"

"Okay then. Safer topic, do you know my brother? He's in your grade." Maisha said changing the subject.

"Cliff, right?" Maisha nodded. "Yea he's cool. One time he brought this rattlesnake rattle to school for show and tell..." Tuck went on talking about what had happened at school when Professor Wakeman can down stairs.

Maisha and Brad, who were totally into Tuck's story, didn't hear her come down with Jenny. The professor cleared her throat.

"Hello Tucker, Bradley."

"Hi, professor W." Brad answered her.

"Umm hi. I'm Maisha." Maisha told her standing up to shake her hand.

The professor studied her hand and turned to Jenny and said "She can stay. Only if you two are really quiet and don't stay up all night."

"We won't Mom. Thanks" Jenny told her.

"Yes thank you." Maisha included her thanks.

"Well I won't kept you young people any longer." The Professor said and left.

"She isn't seeing anyone is she?" Maisha asked "Because I know this guy and they would be so cute..." Jenny, Tuck, and Brad burst into laughter.

"What is so funny?" Maisha demanded to know.

"Jenny's... mom.... Going... on... dates." Brad managed to get out after he'd stopped laughing hard enough to speak.

Maisha frowned and told them "You can laugh now but don't say you saw it coming when she brings a guy home that she's getting serious with." That made them laugh even more.

"So what are you exactly? A matchmaker?" Brad asked her still trying to contain his laughter.

"Sure, I am. That's why I lined you up on a blind date tonight..." Maisha started

"Really?" Brad asked looking surprised and hopeful.

"No, but I do have some prospects lined up for you and Jenny." Maisha told him. Jenny and Brad looked at each other.

"No offense Maisha, but you've only known us for a few weeks. How could you know what we would like in a potential boy/girlfriend?" Jenny asked.

"I'll... hey is that your dad outside, Tuck?" Maisha suddenly asked pointing out the window on her right.

"No, I've never seen him before." Tuck told her looking confused.

"I haven't either. Jenny has you?" Brad asked her.

"No but that's trespassing isn't it? Looking right through people's windows someone should go and tell him." Everyone turned and looked at Jenny.

"Alright, I get the message, I'll go." Jenny turned to go outside with the others following at her metal heels.
