Chapter ll

Kimi walked to the bus stop. She met up with Tommy and the rest of the gang.

"Did you and the army brat yesterday?" Lil asked.

"She's not a brat! So why don't you just step-off!" Kimi put her hand in Lil's face.

"Sorry." Lil walked over to Phil, "I guess that Jordyn's snootiness rubbed off on Kimi."

"You got that right." He rolled his eyes. Dil walked over to Kimi and put his arm around her.

"Don't listen to them, Kimi. They are just jealous." Dil tried to comfort her.
"Ah, I know you like me, but you don't need to show it all the time." She pushed his arm off her shoulder.

"Fine." Dil went over and sat on the bench.

The bus finally came and Kimi sat next to Jordyn. She noticed that she was crying.

"What's wrong?" Kimi asked.

"I just got the news." She said.

"What news?" Kimi got confused.

"That I'm moving." Jordyn burst out into tears.

"Where to?" tears started to fall from Kimi's check.

"Germany." She said.

"But you just moved here." Kimi whipped a tear from her eye.

"I know. My dad got a call last night saying that we have to be in Germany in three weeks." Jordyn explained.

"Three weeks! You are going to miss the prom!" Kimi got mad.

"Could you please not make me any more sad?" she sat up in her seat as the bus came to a halt. They got off the bus and walked into the school. Kimi and Jordyn made their way through the crowded cafeteria to the guidance office.

"Is Mr. Paulskill here yet?" Jordyn asked the secretary.

"Yes he is, would you like to talk to him?" she asked.

"Yes, please." Kimi said. The lady got up from her desk and walked over to the door.

"He is ready for you." She got out of the way.

"Hi girls!" he said with a big smile.

"Hi." Kimi said with a frown.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"I'm moving." Jordyn started to cry again.

"Already?" Mr. Paulskill asked.

"Yes and it's not fair! I just moved here!" she exclaimed.

"I know it isn't fair, but at least you made a friend here. And I bet that you two will stay in touch." He said.

"Of course we will." Kimi said.

"That's good." He conformed. Kimi looked at Jordyn, who was sitting in a heap of tissues.

"It's ok Jordyn. We'll always be friends." She said.

"Don't you realize that I am moving to Europe? That's like a long way from here." Jordyn grabbed another tissue.

"Yeah, I realize that." Kimi shook her head.

"Well, home room is about over and you girls should get to class. Come in and see me if there are any more difficulties." Mr. Paulskill walked over to the door.

"See ya later, Mr. P!" Kimi said as her and Jordyn left.
