Chapter lll
Kimi paced back and forth in her room thinking about Jordyn. She ran down stairs to ask her mom a question.
"Can we adopt Jordyn?" she asked.
"I don't think so." Kira replied.
'Dang!" Kimi ran back up stairs, but half way up she turned around and went back down.
"Can I go with her?" Kimi asked in a begging tone.
"No!" her mom said firmly.
"Fine!" Kimi stomped back up the stairs. When she got up there, Jordyn called.
"Hello?" she asked.
"Is you fridge running?" Jordyn asked.
"Yes, why?" Kimi was confused.
"Then you better go catch it!" she started to laugh.
"Jordyn, is that you?" she asked.
"You guessed right!" Jordyn said cheerfully.
"You must be in a really good mood." Kimi said.
"Not really, but if you wanna think that." She told her.
"Whatever. So, still mad about moving?" she asked.
"Yeah." Jordyn's line was cut off.
"Hello? Hello?" Kimi looked at her phone, "Are you there?"
It was three days until Jordyn had to leave. Tensions were high as the friends thought about what was happening. Kimi went over to Jordyn's to help pack.
"What's this?" Kimi wondered.
"Oh nothing. Just an actual dinosaur tooth." Jordyn grabbed it from her and wrapped it.
"Really? Awesome!" Kimi shouted.
"I figured that you really wouldn't care." she put it in the box.
Kimi stayed there for another couple of hours. She learned a lot about Jordyn that night. Kimi became depressed as the moving day came.
"I still can't believe that your leaving me." Kimi told Jordyn on her last day of school.
"I am so going to miss you." Jordyn whipped a tear from her eye.
"You're going to e-mail right?" Kimi asked.
"Duh, probably everyday." she said. The two hugged as they left school.
Kimi awoke the next morning to a rainy day. She quickly got dressed and ran down stairs. Kimi looked at her watch to see the time.
"Crap! I have to go." Kimi ran out the door. She ran down the street to Jordyn's.
"Hi!" Jordyn said as she answered the door. Kimi bursted out into tears.
"You can't leave me!" Kimi gave her a huge hug.
"I'm sorry, but I have to." Jordyn whipped the tear on Kimi's face.
"I know you do, but it's not fair!" she looked into Jordyn's eyes.
"I'm sorry." she brought Kimi into the living room to say goodbye to her mom and dad.
"I am going to miss you all." Kimi said with a smile. She walked over and hugged them both.
"We're going to miss you too." Jordyn's mom said.
Kimi helped put all the boxes into the moving truck. Box after box, Kimi's emotions spun.
"Remember
to e-mail everyday." Kimi told her.
"I will. I'll even
send you pictures." Jordyn said. The two friends hugged as
Jordyn got ready to leave.
"Bye Kimi!" Jordyn's dad said as he got into the truck.
"Bye sir." Kimi tried not to cry. Jordyn hugged Kimi again. They both started to cry.
"Bye Jordyn. I love you like a sister!" Kimi yelled as her best friend got into her mom's car.
"Right back at ya!" Jordyn said back. The car pulled out of the drive way. Kimi stood under the tree to try to stay dry. Tears ran down her face as she watched the car disappear over the horizon.
"Bye Jordyn." Kimi whispered to herself as started to walk back home.
