Chapter two-Noel
It was after school. We all were sitting at the the table in the corner. A map of the art museum spread across the table. Lawrence tapped his pencil against it.
"Well, It probably best if we hit these areas" he tapped the upper and lower left and corners of the map"
"That would take all day," I said
"So"
"Dwayne and I have chores to do" my replied was
"What about Towa and Argentine. They can handle those for you" suggested Rei
"We tried that once," said Dwayne
"Grandma found out. She said if we want to lose our allowance, we should not do that again," I further explained
"That seems harsh," said Rei
"Well, when it Towa doing the talk. It just made things fall out of our favor," I said with a sigh
"Maybe, we could find some way work it out with grandma. We can do our chores tomorrow or Sunday." Dwayne suggested, "After all, this is for school"
"Yea, I guess" I nodded while not happy with the thought.
We were to do project for school. Find how past artists influenced each other. It seemed rather simple assignment. Find a couple of paintings and find the similarities. However, Lawrence wanted to be thorough as possible. Which, meant that we would spend the whole day looking at artworks. Not that was a bad thing, just it is going to be a long day.
"Can I get you something," said an elder woman that approached us. Her soft white hair was resting on her shoulders. She had soft brown eyes. A caring and charming face she had.
"Just some lemonade" said Rei
She went over to the counter. Then, come back in a few minutes. She handed each of us our drink. As she looked down, she notices the map.
"Oh you are plan a trip to the art museum." She asked
"Yes. It for the project" answered Lawrence
"And you are going to everyone here spend whole day" she inquired
"Yes"
"Lawrence, you need to stop be such perfectionist." The elder woman said shaking her , she knew him to well. In addition, she knew how unnecessary to spent the whole day for a simple project.
"This will help someone raise her grades," he said gesturing towards Rei
"Grandmother" she wined
The elder woman was my great aunt Risa. She owns the café Tea Delights. It was one of our favorite hangouts. Well, my and Rei's, anyway.
She was about to fuss at Lawrence for make that remark. When, the bell over the door rang. Noel was stand in the door.
"Why, Hello" Greeted great aunt Risa, "how can I help you?"
"Oh, I would like some ice tea" she said
She turned and saw us sitting. She walked over to us. "Hi"
"Hey Noel, How are you" Rei asked
"I am doing fine" she responds
"Do you want to sit with us?" I asked
"Sure "she chimed
She pulled a chair from the table next to sat in between me and Rei. She got her ice tea. Then, she took a sip.
"How do you like the school?" I asked
"It is all right" she smiled "it is not like my school"
"I cannot imagine what it would be like to move in the middle of the school year," said Dwayne
She turned to look at him. She smiled as she nodded "I admit, at times it dose seem rather difficult to come in and try to keep with the lessons.
"You can always come to us if you need anything," informed Rei
"So, what you guys are doing"
"Planning our trip to the art museum" stated Lawrence
"All right, the project"
"What are you and your group to do" Dwayne asked
"The other said they found some information online. We are all to get together over the weekend to write the paper. However, I think I am going to do research at the museum as well"
"When are you going?" asked Rei
"This Saturday"
"What you know, that when we are going," I said as I nudged Dwayne under the table "Maybe you would join us"
"I cannot"
"Why" asked Rei
"I will be there only for a little while. My uncle has something he wants to do that day"
Just then, the bells from clock tower chimed four o'clock. Noel looked stunned as she heard them. She grabbed her bag and said goodbye.
"If you see us there, do not forget to say hi" Rei call out
"It time we get going too" Dwayne
"See yea" I said
It was when we getting closer to home when start to think of way to convince grandma.
"While if Noel was coming with we could used her as an excuse," I said
"What, How" Dwayne cried out
"It would been one of the chances you would have with her" I teased
"Erin" he moaned
He hung is head. I knew it was not my teasing alone. He always felt that girls never really liked him. This was the first time I ever saw him like this.
"Dwayne" I said softly "If you really like Noel, then find way to win her over"
"But what if she does not like me"
"Of course, she likes you. Did you not see the smile on her face when, you sympathy with her"
His head came up "I guess"
"Just work little by little and before you know it. You have a girlfriend"
They arrived at the house. Erin went to grab the doorknob. When, it flew up. There stood a small woman. She wore a purple maid outfit. Her hair was short and sliver.
"Welcome home" her voice high pitched, "how are you Master Dwayne, Misters Erin"
"Fine, Towa" I said
"Oh, what is wrong, Master Dwayne" Towa asked
"Oh it is nothing," he answered
"Are you sure"
"He just having so…."I started
"ERIN"
"What"
"Are you going to tell everyone," Dwayne inquired
"I was just giving a simple explanation"
"Now, Now you two do not fight," said Towa trying keeping the peace
"Okay ,okay, I am sorry, Dwayne. Still, you should not be so embarrassed. One day, everyone is going to find out"
"It does not have to be you"
"Fine" I sighed
Note to the reader: There going to part written the third person. These are part where Erin is not there. Has no knowledge of what is being taking place. TP would mark these parts.
TP
There was a man standing in an office. He looked out the window that looked over the city. He had short strawberries blond hair. His eyes were a deep blue.
There was a knock on the door. He gave permission to enter. Noel Price came through and closed the door.
"You are late" he said in a deep voice.
"I sorry Uncle, I lost track of time."
"Let just hope that it does not become a habit"
"Do not worry. I will be on time from now on Uncle"
"Now to business" he sat behind "Are all the preparations made for Saturday"
"Yes"
"You know where to go"
"Basement level and the farther room"
He smiled "excellent"
