Laceygirl03 is back and ready for another chapter of Girl Meets Anna! Who's ready? I am, how bout you guys? Still celebrating my win today! Okay, Girl Meets Anna is ready and I am too! Let's get started!
(Anna's POV)
The next morning as three of the four of us woke up, we heard retching. It was coming from the bathroom next to Riley's room. I looked around and saw that Maya wasn't there. She came back into the room. She looked ready to collapse.
Without saying anything, Daisy quietly slipped off the bed she and Riley had been sharing and walked to Maya's side. Maya leaned on her like she didn't know where to go. Daisy helped her back into her sleeping bag and covered her up, letting Maya's head rest in her lap. Daisy still said nothing, but began stroking Maya's hair in a soothing pattern, until Maya's eyes closed. When they did, Daisy walked back to the bed and lied down.
It shocked me how Daisy knew what to do and right when to do it. She and Maya were close, I knew that.
The next morning, not one of us was going to school, mostly because all of us were still sick. Ms. Hart came and picked us up, saying she finally found a new apartment where we would stay. There were three bedrooms. One for Ms. Hart, one for Maya and Daisy, and one for me. My own room. Wow.
Daisy was helping fix the beds when I walked in. "How are you feeling?" I asked.
"Way better," Daisy replied, sounding like her old self.
Maya was asleep on the bottom bunk. She was snoring, but she didn't sound near as bad as she had the night before. "Do you think Maya's gonna be okay on Friday?" Daisy asked.
"Probably," I replied.
Daisy sat on a chair in the room. I noticed the journal sitting on her desk. "You still write in this?" I asked.
"Yeah, but it's almost out of paper," she replied. "Maya and I were thinking that, when it does, we could get a new one and start something about sisterhood, you know, with you too." (That's your hint for what Girl Meets Sisterhood might be like.)
"Yeah, that'd be great," I replied.
I walked over to where Daisy was sitting. I put my hand up to her forehead. "Good, you're so much cooler," I said.
Daisy put her hand up to my own forehead. "You too," she said.
Maya began waking up. Daisy walked over to where our sister was sleeping. "Maya?" she whispered.
Maya sat up slowly in her bed. "Hey Dais," she said, almost like her old self.
"Maya, how are you feeling?" I asked.
"Better, thanks guys," she said.
We all hugged.
The next day all of us, even Maya, finally got to go back to school. For once in my life, nothing interesting happened. The next day, though, it was time for Daisy's big play.
We all walked into the auditorium of John Quincy Adams Middle School and took our seats. The lights went dim, and we suddenly saw Daisy onstage, her microphone attached, in her costume. It was jeans and a basketball jersey.
"We all have a story," she started. "A story about how we may turn out in this world, a story on how people will react to things that happen. Everyone has a reaction to everything. Even if your reaction is nothing. Anyways, everyone has a story, and this is mine."
The background behind her changed, and we suddenly on a basketball court. Daisy's voice over came over the speakers. "Sander had always been my best friend. He was like a brother to me. But I never expected the adventures we would end up on."
Forest ran onto stage, dribbling a basketball. (I'm now going to start referring the characters by their play character name.)
(General POV)
CeCe, the main girl, played basketball with her best friend, Sander. As they played, a girl with blond hair came up. "Hey Sander," she said, flirting.
"Oh, hey, Arianna," he said.
The two stopped playing as Sander began talking to Arianna (played by Missy Bradford), and he seemed to forget that CeCe was right there. The pair talked until CeCe walked off stage.
A few scenes later, it shows Sander and Arianna fighting, then breaking up. Soon after that, it had CeCe singing, in front of a crowd, for the first time.
You wanna play
You wanna stay
You wanna have it all
You started messing with my head
Until I hit a wall
Maybe I should've known
Maybe I should've known
That you would walk, you would walk out the door
Said we were done
Then met someone
And rubbed it in my face
Cut to the part,
She broke your heart
And then she ran away
I guess you should have known
I guess you should have known
That I would talk, I would talk
But even if the stars and moon collide
I never want you back into my life
You can take your words and all your lies
Oh, oh, oh, I really don't care!
No oh oh, I really don't care!
As CeCe finishes the song, Sander and she kiss, having shared the most beautiful moment of their life.
Soon after the kiss, the two sing "Don't Stop Believin'" and the play ends.
(I own neither of the songs and all rights go to their writers/producers)
(Anna's POV)
We all clapped as the cast members take their bows. Riley even stood up. (It has been six weeks and she got the cast off that day.)
The cast members leap into one more song and dance routine, but this time, something bad happened. As Ali ran during the number, she fell off the stage. We all gasped. Luckily, sitting right at the edge of the stage, dropping his guitar, Andrew caught her. "T-thank you," Ali stuttered.
As soon as we were outside, we were all taking pictures of Ali, Forest, Andrew, and Daisy. They all laughed as we asked for their autograph. All though, Maya didn't seem to have much to say. She wasn't talking a lot to me, Daisy, or Riley, or anyone else for that matter. Mom picked us up. "Are you okay?" Daisy asked as we got into the car.
Maya nodded, but said nothing. She leaned up against the window. "Maya, honey, is everything all right back there?" Ms. Hart asked.
Maya again said nothing. Now we were worried. She pointed to her throat, then began coughing. "Did you lose your voice?" Daisy guessed.
Maya nodded again. Daisy handed her a paper pad and a pen. Maya wrote: I lost my voice, but I feel fine, just a scratchy throat. And it hurts like crazy when I have coughing fits.
Daisy smiled sympathetically at Maya. She leaned over and rested her head on Maya's shoulder.
When we got home, Ms. Hart had to leave for work, but she said one thing to me as she left. "Honey, Anna, you can call me 'Mom,'"
Daisy fixed Maya some tea as she rested on the couch. Her sore throat seemed pretty bad. She kept having continuous coughing fits, which just got worse over time. She finally fell asleep, but you could hear the pain in her voice as she fell asleep.
Done! Two chapters in one day, woohoo! Hope you guys enjoyed it. Also, if you want something else to read, look at my new Girl Meets Slumber Party. It's just something fun I'm doing to help get rid of my writer's block. Thank you and Lacey!
