Chapter 8
"YAHOOO!" Emile screamed as he flew down the street on his office chair/leaf blower contraption. Jake sighed and grabbed my hand. We ran around the corner after Emile and straight into a girl with what looked like her boyfriend.
"Who is that?" asked the girl.
"An idiot and somehow, our friend," I replied. We heard a crash and a bang and Jake looked at me. "Oh, no!"
We ran around the corner to find Emile sitting under a fruit stall, and his contraption was lying in quite a few pieces.
"It exploded! Good thing I was wearing my armor," he said.
I couldn't help but laugh at him and Jake laughed too as he walked over to Emile. He helped him up, paid for all the food that was originally on the stall, and said, "Ok, Emile, time to go home!"
"Aw, already?" Emile whined.
"Yes already!" I said. "We have been playing with that leaf blower for 6 hours!"
I linked arms with him and Jake took my hand and we started walking home.
When we got home, Jun and Carter were watching a movie from the 21st century, The Avengers, Kat was in her room reading and Jorge was reading some old book that didn't interest me.
"Next time Carter, you have to come!" I said. "It was SO much fun!"
Carter laughed, and said, "Ok, Six, you got it. Next time Emile finds an office chair and a leaf blower, I will join in. Possibly."
I was so tired I just went straight to bed. Lying there, I remembered. Tomorrow was my birthday. I wondered if Jake remembered or not.
