Chapter 12
Girl Talk

"Have you felt romance in your life?"

While Mika was wondering around the backyard, she spotted Michelangelo with a bouquet of red roses and lilies; Mika's favorite flowers.

"Mika...want to hang out tonight...together only in a restaurant?"Michelangelo asked, presenting the bouquet of flowers.

Mika grabbed them and smelled.

"Of course, Mikey! Of course!"Mika exclaimed happily.


Mika wailed on her bed. Her cat looked at Mika.

"I don't know what to do anymore, Ria! What will I do?!"Mika exclaimed.

Someone knocked on the door.

"Come in..."Mika mumbled.

Cleopatra, Raphaela and Danielle sat on Mika's bed.

"Girl, what's up with you?"Danielle asked.

"I have a crush on Mikey. He asked me out on a date...!"Mika said.

"Lock the door, Dani. We're going to have some serious girl talk."Cleopatra said. Danielle locked the door and they huddled around Mika.

"Wait, you're not mad?"Mika asked.

"No! We're going to have some girl talk, girl."Raphaela said, hugging Mika. Then, she released her.

"What do you like in Mikey?"Raphaela asked, curious. Mika blushed.

"Well...he's adorable, sweet, gentle, kind...makes my heart melt and explode."Mika mumbled.

The three sisters squealed.

"I want to say congrats, girl!"Cleopatra exclaimed, hugging Mika.

"How did Mikey ask you?"Danielle asked, smiling. Mika brought out the bouquet of flowers.

"Well, I was walking along the backyard. Mikey gave me flowers and asked me out. I squealed and agreed. But then, I had no idea how to do this and ended up wailing on my bed."Mika said.

"You know what that means?"Raphaela asked.

"Mikey may have a crush on you!"Danielle exclaimed.

Mika blushed.

"And we're going to help you."Cleopatra promised.

"Really?"Mika asked.

"Of course, girl. But Mikey needs help too...Savanti, Mikey's on a date! Assist him in what to do!"Cleopatra shouted.

"Oui."Savanti said, going down.

Mika was squealing in excitement, rolling on the bed.

"Calm down, girl. Calm down. First thing you need to do is calm down."Cleopatra said, rubbed Mika's back.

Mika soon stopped.

"Now, we'll need to go to the place where preparing begins: the mall!"Cleopatra exclaimed, grabbing Mika's hand.


"Now...what suits you?"Danielle asked.

Mika looked around.

"No idea."She answered, sighing. "Come on, guys. Let's split. I'm just going to go on my normal dress."Before she could even leave, Raphaela grabbed her wrist.

"No you ain't. To go on a date, you really need preparation, woman style!"Raphaela exclaimed.

"Alright..."

She looked around until she found an orange and black dress.

"What about that?"Mika asked, pointing to the dress.

"Are you sure, girl?"Danielle asked.

""Yeah, whatever. I just want to see if it fits."Mika said, grabbing the dress and running to the fitting room.

After a little while, Mika came out with an orange and black striped dress with orange straps.

"Girl, I think we got a dress!"Cleopatra exclaimed, getting the dress once Mika returned to her normal clothes.

After buying, they went out of the dress shop.

"We'll have to skip the shoes and accessories. Right now, you need spa day."Cleopatra said, grabbing Mika's hand.

Wow, what will Mikey say? Mika thought.


"Pick a hairstyle."a man said, showing the different pictures. Mika touched her brown hair. Then, she glanced at her sisters.

"Do I have to?"Mika asked.

"Well, of course. Now, pick."Raphaela said while playing Minecraft on her phone.

"What about this?"Mika asked, pointing to a girl with bohemian hair twists.

"Excellent choice."The man said while some women crowded Mika and began doing the work.

"Can't I just stick with my normal hair?"Mika asked.

"No, girl. Every man likes a new twist."Cleopatra said.

Mika groaned.

Soon, their was the phone.

Mika got her phone.

It was Mona Lisa.

"Oh glob..."she mumbled, declining the call. She texted:

Girl, can we talk about this later? I'm preparing for a date.

Then, she closed her eyes, dreaming of him and Michelangelo in a kingdom far away.


"Before...to now..."the man said, revealing Mika's new hairstyle. Mika felt her hair and looked at the mirror; it is Bohemian Hair Twist.

"Girl, that is gorgeous! I'm so jealous right now!"Raphaela exclaimed. Mika giggled.

"Next stop is back at the house. We'll do the nails."Cleopatra said.

Mika groaned. Not again.


While her sisters painted Mika's nails, Mika smiled as she used webcam on her phone to contact Mona Lisa.

"Girl, congratulations on the lucky guy. Who is he?"Mona Lisa asked.

"Michelangelo."Mika responded, blushing.

"Does he know?"Mona Lisa asked.

"No...But I hope he will."Mika said. Mona Lisa squealed.

"I got to tell everyone."Mona Lisa said.

'No, man. Not cool. Not yet."Mika said. Mona Lisa put down her other phone and giggled.

"Sorry. It's just sad that we get to see each other at the mall and not at school. I still don't know why you and your sisters aren't allowed to go to school."Mona Lisa said, sighing. Mika sigh too.

"Alright. Got to go. Later."Mika said.

"Later."Mona Lisa said, turning off her phone. Cleopatra turned off the phone and continued doing the nails on her right foot.

Mika groaned.

Michelangelo came in.

"Hey Mika, I was wondering if you could...whoa."Michelangelo said in amazement, finding the three sisters painting her nails.

"Don't you have anything to do?"Mika asked, smirking.

"Oh yeah. Later."Michelangelo said, leaving the room.

"Alright."Mika said. The others squealed.

"Guys, what's with the squeals?"Mika asked.

"Mikey might like you."Cleopatra said. Mika blushed and giggled.


"So, what do we do with the shoes?"Mika asked, looking at the orange and black finger polish on her nails. They were in a patterns. Mika sigh. At least it wasn't like last time.

"Follow us."Raphaela said, leading Mika to a room...a room that Mika never went.


"Dude, since when did you get shoes?"Mika asked, looking around.

"Forty boxes fell out of the sky and I found them. I guess Chloƫ forget our fifteenth birthday that she sent us forty boxes of shoes."Raphaela said.

"Now, which one..."Mika mumbled.

"Try this."Raphaela asked, putting the black heeled-shoes on Mika.

"Love them."Mika said. Raphaela removed the shoes and brought the pair of shoes to Mika's room.

"Now, let's add them up."Cleopatra said, locking the door.


Mika appeared with Bohemian Twists on her hair, the orange and black dress, golden and black accessories, an orange purse, orange and black nails, makeover on her face, and black shoes with high heels.

"How do I look?"Mika asked, twirling.

"Smashing."Danielle said.

Michelangelo came in human form, wearing a nice tuxedo. Michelangelo stared in amazement. Mika blushed.

After that, Cleopatra pushed them off.

"Go on, go on, enjoy yourselves."Cleopatra said, closing the door.

"So...where to start?"Mika asked.


They decided to watch Iron Man 3. Mika and Michelangelo held hands.

As soon as they saw the scene where Tony was hanging out with his wife near the end, the two gripped their hands. They blushed when they felt it.

It's just so warm, so good. Mika said. Michelangelo blushed.

So smooth, so beautiful. Glob, how will I explain it to her? Michelangelo thought to himself.

A few moments came and the credits rolled.

Michelangelo grabbed Mika's wrists. Mika blushed more.

"Where are we going?"Mika asked, a bit frightened.

"To Central Park."Michelangelo said, dragging Mika to Central Park.


"Sure is beautiful."Mika mumbled, still holding hands.

"Mika, there's something I want to tell you."Michelangelo said.

Mika blushed.

"I'm...in...love...with...you..."Michelangelo said, nervous. Mika squealed.

"You know what I think?"Mika asked. "What?"Michelangelo asked.

"This."Mika grabbed his face and the two kissed, hugging.

They did this until they gasped for air.

Michelangelo soon scooped her up, bridal style.

"Let's go."


"He likes you?"

"Yeah."Mika said, seeing her three sisters at the side of her bed.

"Well, good night. Oh yeah, it's okay with us now."Cleopatra said, closing the door.

Mika smiled and closed her eyes, going back to her fantasy land.


The shadows are watching us.

The evil are lurking behind us.

When will they reveal themselves?
