Star's POV
I have a tarehe is all I thought when I boarded the bus on my way to the mall. I felt ecstatic. I felt like my moyo would explode with content. I couldn't stop smiling. I was going on a tarehe with Noah! I got off the bus and walked one block to the mall. When I entered the mall, I decided to buy a new bathing suit. It was my first tarehe to a water park after all. I went to Ujena. When I walked into the store, a lady who worked there came up to me and said, "Hi. May I help you?"
"Yes. I'm looking for a two piece swimsuit that isn't too revealing."
"If wewe would just follow me, Miss." I followed her to where they had the halter juu bikinis. "Hope wewe find something wewe like. If wewe need me, I'll be kwa the entrance."
"Thnak wewe so much." She smiled then walked away. I skimmed through the first rack and went to the second. I saw it. A black halter bikini. "Perfect." I looked at the price. "Woah." I went back to the entrance of the store to find the lady. I went up to her and said, "Do wewe have a clearance rack with those same types of swimwear?" I was referring to the halter juu bikinis.
"Yes. Follow me." I followed her to the clearance rack with the halter juu bikinis. "Here wewe go."
"Thank wewe again." She smiled and left again. I immediately tried to find the same black halter juu bikini I saw earlier. I did. I looked at the price. It wasn't too bad. At least I could afford it. I grabbed it off the rack and went to purchase it.
"There wewe go", alisema the woman behind the counter as she put my swimsuit inside a bag. She handed me the bag.
"Thanks." I left the store. I looked at the clock. It was 2 o'clock. I decided to go get a mani/pedi,but first I had to get something to eat. I was starving. I went into a nail salon. "Hi", I said. "I'd like to make an appointment."
Noah's POV
"Go Francine", screamed my mother. "Woo!" My sisters' team was winning. The score was 5 to 3.
"C'mon girls,go!" I had to admit, seeing my sisters run around that soccer field made me feel good. My mom was happy, my sisters were happy, and that made me happy. "Woo!" Francine scored another goal. It was 3 o'clock. The game was almost finished.
When it ended, my sisters were handed mini-trophies kwa their coach. We got in the car. All my sisters could talk about was how Francine scored the winning goal. "The goalie didn't see it coming", exclaimed Francine.
"I know right", alisema Margret.
"Mommy, didn't Francine do a good job today", asked Alicia.
"Yes she did. All of wewe did. I'm proud of all of you", alisema my Mom. We pulled into our driveway.
Star's POV
It was 3:30. I had to get back to the nail salon for my appointment. I ran to the elevator with a full stomach. I pressed the floor number that the nail salon was on. I got off the elevator. When I got to the nail salon, I told the lady my name and she got started on me right away.
-----------2 Hours Later-----------
"Thank you, come again", alisema the woman who did my nails. I left the salon. It was 5:30. I thought of what to do next. I can't afford to get my hair done, I thought, so that leaves shoes. kwa shoes, I mean sandals of course. I went to a shoe store. I purchased my black sandals for ten dollars.
kwa the time I left the mall, it was 6 o'clock. kwa the time I got to the bus stop, it was 6:25. kwa the time I got off the bus at my stop, it 6:35. When I stepped into the house, it was 6:50. My mom was still eating dinner. "Hey Mom!" I was in the kitchen.
My mom put her dish in the sink and ran over to study me. "Honey, what happened to you?"
"It's no big deal. I just got mani/pedi." I felt out saying that word aloud.
"Really? wewe look so different. I upendo it."
"Thanks Mom."
She notices kwa two shopping bags. "What'd wewe buy?"
"Oh, nothing." Before I knew it, she grabbed my shopping bags from me.
"Doesn't look like nothing to me. Looks like wewe got some sandals and a new bathing suit. Where are wewe headed?"
"Well, I'm going on a", I hesitated. "Date."
My mom froze. She looked at me with a blank stare. "A date?"
"Yeah."
"When? With who?"
"Tomorrow. This guy from school." I smiled at the thought of Noah.
"Tomorrow?"
"Yeah. wewe aren't going deaf, are you?"
"Star, wewe have that gymnastics tornament tomorrow."
"What?" I ran to the calendar. Under tomorrow's tarehe was written 'Star's Gymnatics Tornament'. "Crap!"
"Star..."
"Sorry mom." Well this is great. The guy of dreams finally asks me on a tarehe and I have to miss it. I headed up to room. I shut my door, got on my bed, layed on my back, and stared at the ceiling while turned upside down. That's what I always did when I'm frustrated au sad. I don't throw a tantrum au cry. I just let the blood go to my head, scream into a pillow, au both. My mom walked into my room. She sat on the bed.
"I'm sorry honey."
"It's not your fault,Mom."
"Maybe wewe could go on that tarehe the siku after tomorrow?"
"I guess so." My mom left the room. She knew there was no way of cheering me up whenever I alisema that. She closed the door behind her. As soon as she did,I quickly grabbed a mto and screamed into it, "Ugh! I hate my life!"
Noah's POV
kwa the time we got home, it was 8 o'clock. My sisters talked themselves to sleep. When I got out off the car, I woke my siters up while my mom went to unlock the door. When we got in the house, my sisters walked tiredly to the stairs. As they went up, my mom said, "I'll be up there in a minute, girls." My sisters gave a tired nod of the head.
When they were completely gone, my mom asked me, "So what did wewe talk about with wewe little friend this morning?"
"She was checking to see how I was feeling, Mom."
"C'mon. I know that wasn't the only wewe thing talked about. Did wewe ask her on a date?"
"Mom, stop being intrusive. That's none of your business."
"Fine, fine. I won't penetrate in wewe business."
"Thank you." My mom followed me up the stairs. I headed to my room while she headed to my sisters' room.
When I got my room, I got undressed. I decided I would kuoga in the morning. Then I remembered what happens tomorrow. I've got my tarehe with nyota tomorrow. I couldn't wait. I was waiting to ask her out for a whole year, and now I'm really happy I finally did. I fell asleep with a smile on my face and that's how I slept through out the whole night.....................
