Chapter 16:
Elysia knocked on the Vincore door. Rachelle was to go with her to buy a wedding dress. Finally, Rachelle answered the door. "Come in," she said, "I have to make sure things are in order before I go." Elysia stepped into the Victorian styled house. The floor was wooden and Elysia could see her reflection in it. She saw Velvet, Rachelle's kitten, walking down the stairs, in a cat-walk strut.
She heard Rachelle as she ran down the stairs. Rachelle had pulled her long blonde hair back in a ponytail. She smiled, as she saw Elysia who had kneeled down to pet Velvet. "She's soo strangely affectionate," Rachelle said, "Ready?" "Yes," Elysia smiled.
"Honey!," came a voice from upstairs. "Yes dear," Rachelle called back. "You forgot your purse," Marcus said from the top of the stairs. "Oh!," Rachelle replied running up to get her purse from her husband she gave him a quick peck and waved goodbye. She smiled as she finally reached the bottom of the stairs. "Now then," Rachelle smiled, "Let's go!" Elysia nodded following her out the door.
Although Elysia had arrived by a taxi, Rachelle decided she wanted to walk to the shop. They began walking through the neighborhood and Rachelle started humming. She smiled,
An ordinary girl
She don't read all that much
She decorates her lawn with
Wild pink flamingos
She got a fanny pack, a neon jogging suit
And after work you'll see her walk her brown dog
Bingo
No further aspirations, some say that she's complacent
That she don't want the modern
Elysia smiled as Rachelle grabbed her arms, and they began spinning. She burst into laughter.
And she says
I love life
Life loves me
Everything in
The world makes
Me happy oh!
I love life
Life loves me
Lets take another trip
To Disney land
Oh
Disney land
Elysia smiled as they locked arms and started skipping down the street. Rachelle's free arm swung back and forth.

A little overweight
She's a beautician
Her husband makes
Her live by
Changing old transmissions
They got a couple
Kids
Named Jim and Jenny
They love iceberg lettuce and ragu
No further aspirations some say that she's
Complacent
That she don't
Want the modern
Elysia gasped as a basket ball flew past her head and Rachelle caught it. The two boys throwing the ball turned to her, smiling. Elysia and Rachelle caught each other's stare and Rachelle winkled. They started playing.
And she says
I love life
Life loves me
Everything in the world makes
Me happy
Oh
I love life
Life loves me
Lets take another trip
To Disney land
To Disney land
Rachelle threw the ball to the boys and took Elysia's are and they started running.
What should have
On our chicken dinner
Tonight
Let's go to Orlando
Where the sun
Shines bright
Jim won a prize
At the fair
Today
No more rain it's a sunshine day
What shall we have on our chicken dinner tonight?
What shall we have on our chicken dinner tonight?
What shall we have on our chicken dinner tonight?
What shall we have on our chicken dinner tonight?
Rachelle jumped up, crying out happily, her hair flew around her and saw the big smile on her face as she came back down.
I love life, life loves me
Everything in the world makes
Me happy oh
I love life, life loves me
Lets take another trip
I love life, life loves me
Everything in the world makes
me happy
I love life, life loves me
Everything in the world makes me happy.
