Chapter 7
Cosmo waked up on a Sunday's morning. The sun's light was hitting Cosmo on the face. Outside the wind was strong, more than usual. Cosmo stood up and got ready for the day. Mama Cosma was still asleep, so Cosmo left the house.
Cosmo was a little hungry, so he decided to go with Ray.
------------------------------------------------------
Cosmo arrive to the restaurant and sat on a table in the corner. Binky approached to the table
"Hey Binky, could you bring me a chocolate shake?" said Cosmo
"Happy Birthday Cosmo" said Ray giving Cosmo a little chocolate cake
"Me?" said Cosmo looking around
"Yes Cosmo, I said Cosmo, right?"
"Birthday? Me?"
"Cosmo, I can't believe you can't remember your own birthday" said Ray
"What day is today?"
"Cosmo, today's December 7th, remember? The day you were born, your BIRTHday"
"Oh yeah! My birthday! Thanks Ray" said Cosmo eating the cake
"And there's no better birthday gift than your girlfriend conveniently entering the restaurant"
Cosmo turned to the entrance door and saw Wanda with Hannah and Mina, she wasn't in the wheelchair anymore. Binky gave Cosmo the chocolate shake. Cosmo started drinking it while seeing Wanda approaching to Ray.
"Hi" said Mina "We want…three shakes to go"
"Sure" said Ray sending Binky to the kitchen
"Wanda?" said Ray
"Yeah?"
"Hey, today's Cosmo's birthday" said Ray
Wanda turned to the table Ray was pointing at. She smiled and turned to her friends.
"Don't worry, we'll wait" said Mina
Wanda approached to Cosmo and sat in front of him. Cosmo was staring at the window.
"Hi Cosmo" said Wanda scaring Cosmo
"Um, hi Wanda"
"Happy Birthday"
"Thanks" said Cosmo smiling "You know…I didn't remember today was my birthday"
Wanda giggled.
"Wanda, may I have your phone number?" said Cosmo poofing a green notebook.
"Sure" said Wanda poofing a pen
Cosmo took his notebook and poofed it away.
"Cosmo…I have to go, sorry"
"No problema" said Cosmo "See ya at school"
Wanda stood up and left the restaurant with Hannah and Mina. Cosmo poofed again the notebook and opened it. He read Wanda's information. Telephone, name and birthday: January 15th. Cosmo poofed a pen and started to copy the information in all the pages of the little notebook.
When he arrived at his home, he saw Mama Cosma in front of a big, colorful box with a big, red ribbon at the top. Cosmo smiled and ran impatiently to the box. He began to rip the paper and then he opened the box. It was a green scooter. Cosmo hugged his mom.
"Thanks mama!" said Cosmo happily
--------school----------
Cosmo poofed into the classroom and sat in his desk. Then the teacher poofed in.
---------------minutes later---------------------
Cosmo was staring at Wanda. Wanda was writing everything that the teacher said. Then he turned to Juanissimo, who was threatening him with his fist.
"Cosmo!" yelled the teacher
Cosmo turned quickly to her.
"Cosmo, would you tell me what I just said?"
Cosmo was searching in his mind something to say.
"Ummm, wands?" said Cosmo
"Okay Cosmo, you were paying attention after all" said the teacher
Cosmo sighted in relief and turned to Wanda. Wanda was smiling.
-------------
The bell rang and everyone began to poof out of the room. The teacher walked to Cosmo.
"Cosmo, I don't want you to fail this year again" said the teacher "So, from now on, you would tell me what was the class about every single day"
Cosmo turned to wanda. If he wanted to stay with her, he had to graduate.
"Cosmo…what was today's class about?"
"It was…about…" Cosmo remembered what he had answered before, wands "About…the great meaning of…wands?"
Cosmo closed his eyes waiting for the teacher to ground him.
"Okay Cosmo, you can go now"
Cosmo smiled. He took Wanda's hand and poofed out of the room.
"Wow Cosmo, were you really paying attention?" said Wanda amazed
"Uhm…sure!" said Cosmo
Cosmo and Wanda appeared outside the school. There he was, standing in front of them…Juanissimo.
