Chapter 48
The next morning...
"I'm gonna take a walk!" I yelled.
"Ok! Don't talk to strangers!" Leo yelled.
"I know!" I opened the door.
"If someone says hi, come home!" Donny yelled.
"I know!" I walked out the door and left.
On the beach (aka the backyard)...
Mikey was sitting there alone. Still staring at that spot. I want to know who that girl was! What was she doing? More importantly, what was she doing on our property?
"Mikey!" Raph yelled.
"What?" Mikey answered.
"Oh. Hi." Raph sat down.
Mikey looked out into the lake.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
"Come on, tell me! I won't repeat it! It will probably be something stupid anyway." Raph said.
Mikey got mad. "Your right, Raph. It is stupid. I'll forget about my stupid problem!" Mikey went back inside.
Raph walked over to Leo who was hanging up the clothes. "What's with Mikey?"
"I don't know. He's been acting like this all morning. It's probably something that happened last night." Leo grabbed a shrit and hung it up.
Raph remembered the girl that was standing outside. "Gotta go! Bye!" Raph ran inside.
Back to me...
About 15 minutes into my walk I heard foot steps behind me. I whipped around.
"Hi." a boy said.
I stared at him wide-eyed.
"I said hi." he said again.
Flashback--
"If someone says hi, come home!" Donny yelled.
"I know!" I walked out the door and left.
End of flashback--
"Hi..." he said for a thrid time.
"Hi..." I smiled.
In Mikey's room...
"Mikey?" Raph walked in.
"What now?" Mikey asked.
"Is it about that girl?"
"What girl?"
"About last night?"
"No."
"Is it, isn't it?"
"Yeah..."
"I don't get it. Why are you worrying over it?"
"Because. I really think that that was Sapphire!"
"Even if it was, it's no big deal!" Raph said.
"Why was she out there?" Mikey asked.
Raph pouted. "Maybe she was looking for you, ya moran!"
Back to me...
"My name's Bobby. What's yours?" Bobby asked.
"Sapphire..." I smiled.
"Wanna come over?"
"How about you come over my house?"
"Well...ok."
"My dads will love you!"
"Dad-s?" Bobby asked.
"Yeah." I replied.
"Excuse me for asking this but--are your dads gay?"
"Yeah."
"They are!"
"Oh, um...I mean, yeah they are but--they won't want you! I already have four fathers."
"Four of them?"
"Yeah..."
"How did they have you?"
"I had no home and they found me on the streets." I paniced. At least THAT wasn't a lie...
