She weaved her way past the carts and tubs and walked behind the front desk (she worked there as an assistant) and was disappointed that both Daniel, ...he community director, and Rebecca, the RA who had spied on Desiree for her, were both gone. After a couple minutes chatting with the staff she started back to the room, and was almost out of earshot of the desk when she heard someone ask, “How long is the cafeteria open tonight?”Nakia stopped and turned around. The girl had a slight, almost. Anyway, back to my story. After school, today I noticed, as if it was hard not to, that Kelly wasn’t there. I was worried, maybe she was ill or something like that. So, after school I went to their house, their front door has a number lock so I keyed in the number and let myself in. Right away I was hit by noises coming from the top of the house and went to investigate. I went up the stairs slowly and walked past Kelly’s room. Her door was wide open and she wasn’t in there. I carried on walking. We found a restaurant within a block of the apartment which we bothagreed upon. The food was a fusion of Thai and European, and after wewere seated we picked from the menu."Jenna, I must admit that you look better than anything on the menu. Youare turning the head of every red blooded man in here."I giggled. Tentatively I looked around and realised that more than onepair of male eyes were on me."I never really understood my appeal. I suppose the nannites give methat added advantage," I replied. All the boys I had ever dated had had dark hair and tan skin, but she was more beautiful than all of those guys combined. For some reason, I don’t know why, she sat with me that day, and ever since I’ve loved her. It’s as simple as that. Every time she talks, or laughs, or smiles, it takes my breath away. We’re almost polar opposites, though. For instance, she likes to dance and sing, and I’m into sports, though I’m not a tomboy. One thing we DO have in common, though, is our love for shopping..
