Chapter 2: New Class
As they got to the school, Jojo walked around to his homeroom and sees Misty coming in. The teacher came in and said, "Good morning class, I'm Paris Who-ton. We have a new classmate here. Her name is Misty Kirkpatrick from Whereville. She'll be joining us here in Whoville High. Tell the class a little about yourself."
Misty felt a little shy and then said, "Well, my family and I moved in from Whereville yesterday. My mom works as musician and my dad's a journalist. I have 4 brothers and 9 sisters. I'm the oldest, which is pretty good."
"So, where are you living now?" Ms. Who-ton asked.
"We're living in a big house about 4 houses away from that big blue and white house near Whoville. My dad said we live 4 houses away from the McDodd's." said Misty.
"That's wonderful." said Ms. Who-ton.
"Where do I sit?" she asked.
"You can sit next to Jojo and Chris."
She walked down the room and sat in an empty chair next to Jojo. She looked at him and said, "Hey, can you believe we're in the same class?"
"I couldn't believe it either." Jojo said.
"What's your schedule?" she asked.
"On 1st period, which is this one, it's English, 2nd period, Art, 3rd period, Wood Shop and 4th period, Music. What's yours?" he said.
"My schedule's 1st period, English, 2nd period, Art, 3rd period, Chemistry and 4th, Music." She said.
"Wow, we have 3 classes together." said Jojo.
"I'm looking forward to getting to know you." Misty said.
"Me too." said Jojo.
A few hours, Jojo went to lunch and brought in a brown bag that had grapes, cookies, granola bar, crackers and water. Misty saw Jojo and sat next to him. She said, "Great lunch. I got salsa and chips, apple, Who-nut butter, pretzel, and a juice."
"Nice. So, you're from Whereville?" he asked.
"Yep. It's really awesome there. Maybe you could show me around Whoville sometime." said Misty.
"Sure, why not." Jojo said.
"Cool. I bet it must be really cool to be the mayor's son." said Misty.
Jojo scoffs and said, "Actually, it's not all it's cracked up to be. I'd rather be a musician than sitting around on top of a giant meatball."
"Sitting on top of a giant meatball?" asked Misty.
"You don't wanna know. It's a stupid mayoral celebration thing." said Jojo.
"Maybe I should introduce you to my family. They're a lot of fun." said Misty.
"Really? You should meet my family. I'm the only boy of my family that has 96 sisters." Jojo said.
"96 sisters? Wow, your have a whole lotta sisters." She said.
"I'm the oldest of them." said Jojo.
"I bet it must be difficult getting those girls into shape. Have you ever been left in charge of them?" Misty said.
"Sometimes. Mostly, I baby-sit a few of the youngest and watch out for the other girls who are in their pre-teen age." said Jojo.
"It's amazing." Misty said.
"I'll meet your family if you meet mine." said Jojo.
"Sure. And you'll meet mine if I meet yours." said Misty.
"How about tonight?" asked Jojo.
"That'll be awesome. Looking forward to it." She said.
