Chapter Two:
BRIIIIIIIING!!!
SANDRA:
EEEEYOWTCH! * jumps ten feet up in the air* WHAT HAPPENED? WHODAT?
Oh. It was just my phone. I walk over to my bag and insert my hand. Every time I want something from my bag I have to grope in the dark for it. The zipper had gotten stuck just a couple of hours ago, leaving just enough space for my hand to fit inside. After sundry probing I manage to extract my phone.
Ahhh. It's from Candy. Let me see…
"Darling Sandy. That funny classmate of mine, Illiona (I told you about her earlier) wants to play a prank on the irritating Miss Pellerin. I, of course, completely support this idea. The problem is what kind of prank to pull. Illiona suggested the traditional thumbtack. I was mortified! Just imagine-"
DING DOOOOOONG!
AAAAAAGH! WHAT'S THE IDEA, HUH?
I've gotten even crazier. Talking to inanimate objects (like your bedroom door) is not a good sign. Why, you may ask, am I so jumpy? I'll tell you why. I'm so worried that those repulsive Inheritance Cycle characters will return to bug me once again. So every time there's a loud noise I leap about a hundred feet up in the air. I'm getting paranoid. But that was just the doorbell ringing. It's not like the Inheritance people to turn up at the front door (a.k.a. properly) so I guess it's safe.
Oh! It must the new boarder "Mum" was talking about yesterday. Alan Faddel, a senior at my school. Yeah, that's it.
"SAAAAAAANDY! COME MEET ALAN!"
Yup. I am a GENIUS. Booyah.
So I trot down the stairs, bow my head demurely and prepare my private welcome for Alan. As I reach the bottom of the stairs, I look up, displaying the full force of my Horrible Grin.
Then I SCREAM.
CANDICE:
OH MIGOSH I love cliffies don't you?
SANDRA:
I find them annoying and irritating. Gimme the mouse, Candy!
CANDICE:
TOO LATE! IT'S ALREADY SUBMITTED! WAHAHAHAHAH!
Sisters. Go figure.
