CHAPTER 7 - "In Cindy's house"
"So, Neu... I mean Jimmy!" she said, giggling. "Come on in. Do you want something to drink?" she suggested.
'He came like if he was searching for food on the trash and my daughter is offering him a soda!' Mrs. Vortex thought,as she sighed heavily. 'Great! Just perfect!'.
She tried to do a fake smile, but all she could do was to greet her teeth. "I'm going... to... the hall... if you need me... don't call me!" she said.
Jimmy and Cindy looked at her, then, theylooked at each other in confusion, and theyshrugged shoulders.
"You still got Purple Flurp, don't you?" Jimmy asked.
"Well... yeah, but that will be something we'll need to use" Cindy said.
"Use?" he asked.
"Yeah. Come with me" she suggested.
Cindy grabbed Jimmy's wrist and she dragged him upstairs to her bedroom. She opened the door, revealing her room for the first time to Jimmy's eyes.
"Wow! So that's how the girl's rooms look like!" Jimmy said, as he kept staring with wide eyes the room.
"Sorta..." Cindy said. She blushed at the commentary. But then, she became serious. "I mean, c'mon! We only have 2 days to turn you in the best Karate fighter ever, if you want to defeat Butch once and for all, of course!".
"Karate? I'm gonna learn Karate?" Jimmy asked, surprised.
"And some Tai Chi lessons, to keep balance and concentration" Cindy added.
"In 2 days only?" he asked, more surprised.
"Yeah! What's the problem with that?" she asked, her hands on her hips.
"I got no problem" he replied.
"Good. But before we continue, you will have to tell your parents that you will stay here for the weekend" Cindy said.
Jimmy realized. "My parents! I didn't ask them! I just got directly to your house!" he screamed.
