Dateline: Takeru has proved that he really
cares
about Grace.
"Oh Yeah! I'm looking good!"
a boy said to himself as he looked into the mirror. He had tan skin,
short
black hair, and brown eyes. He was wearing a short sleeve black shirt,
jeans shorts, black socks, black sneakers, and a black baseball cap.
His
name is Travis. Then he walked out of the boys bathroom and walked to
Salem
park. He looked around the park to look for some little honeys (that's
what he calls the girls). "Where are you hiding my little honeys?"
Travis thought. Finally one caught his eye. He turned and saw Grace
walking
with Takeru When he saw Grace, he fell madly in love with her. "I
found
the perfect little honey, Now how to get that boy away from her."
Travis
thought. He watched Takeru and Grace closely as they walked to the
bench
under a cherry blossom tree. "Now, you sit here while I'll go get you
some
ice cream." said Takeru. as Grace sat down on the bench. "I want mint
chip
ice cream." Grace yelled as she watched him walk away. "Now to make
my move." Travis thought.
***
Then he walked over to Grace
and
sat down right next to her. Grace turned her head to see a boy with an
skin, short black hair, and brown eyes and wearing a short sleeve black
shirt, jeans shorts, black socks, black sneakers, and a black baseball
cap. "Uh.... Who are you?" asked Grace. "I got her right where I
want
her." he thought. Then he turned his head over to her. "My name is
Travis. What's yours?" Travis said. "Uh.... Grace." said the little
princess.
Then Takeru walked over to the bench with two ice cream cones in his
hands
to see Grace with Travis. (One mint chip and the other strawberry.)
"Grace,
Who is he and why is he seating near you?" asked Takeru. "Uh...." Grace
began to say. "I'm Travis and the lady over here wanted me to come over
here and sit beside her." said Travis. "Is this true?" Takeru asked.
"No!"
yelled Grace. "Why are you hanging with this chump?" Travis asked
Grace.
"He's not a chump! He's my friend!" she yelled. "Then I can be your
boyfriend."
said Travis. "No!" yelled Grace. "Then, He's your boyfriend." said
Travis.
"Am I?" asked Takeru. Both looked closely at her. "No! You're confusing
me!" yelled Grace. "We'll give you tomorrow decide: Him or Me." said
Travis.
Then they all went home.
***
"Here is your dinner, you
two."
said Megan as handed Mitch and Grace their dinners. Mitch began to chow
down on his dinner but Grace just stared at hers. "What's Squeaky? How
you're not eating your dinner?" asked Mitch. "I have a lot on my mind."
said Grace. "What?" he asked as he scooted over to her. "Okay, I say
like
you have to girls that are in love with you and they fight over you.
And
then one of gives you three to chose one over the other. " said Grace.
"This will sound annoying so live though it when I say this: You're
nine
years old and you're too young to be even thinking about boys." said
Mitch.
That didn't get to Grace however. "Now, eat your sushi and your crab,
so
you'll grow up to be a big strong queen." he said. Then Grace picked up
her chopsticks and began eating her sushi.
***
"Good night Mitch!" yelled
Grace.
"Good night stinker!" Mitch yelled back as he turned out her light. "I
am not a stinker!" yelled Grace. "Good night, Snowy." said the little
princess.
Snowy was all ready asleep. She tried to go to sleep but she tossed and
turned the first few hours. "Mommy!" she yelled. One of her mother's
servants
ran upstairs to tend to the child's needs. "Where's mommy?" asked the
little
princess. "Your mother is asleep." said Marie. Grace just sat up in
bed.
"What is it?" asked Marie. "Could you read me a bedtime story?" asked
the
little princess. "Which one do you want?" asked Marie as she walked
over
to bookcase. "What's over there?" asked Grace. "Well we have: Little
Red
Riding Hood, The Lily Toad, Good Night Sakura...." said Marie as she
looked
though the books. "We can read Good Night Sakura." said Grace.
"All
right." said Marie. So they read together and Marie left the room when
they were finished. However, that didn't put Grace to sleep like it
usually
does. "We'll give you tomorrow decide: Him or Me." Travis' voice
echoed in her head. "What am I going to do?" she thought. She
tried
come up with a plan like usual but she couldn't think of anything this
time She didn't sleep for the rest of the night.
***
The next morning, Grace didn't
want to get out of bed. "Wake up stinker!" yelled Mitch as he knocked
on
the door. "Leave me alone and I am not a stinker!" Grace yelled. Then
she
pulled her pillow of her head. "Just leave her alone, Mitch." said
Megan.
"All right." he said. Then he and Megan went to the kitchen. You see,
Grace
finally want to sleep at midnight, So she stayed in bed until this
afternoon.
Then finally she climbed out of bed, washed her herself and got
dressed,
and went to the kitchen to eat her brunch. "Bye mommy." she said as she
left the table. "Bye sweetheart." said Megan. Then Grace hooked Snowy's
leash on his collar and left for the park. Since she had quickly picked
up on her flying skills, she decided to fly to the park and she did.
***
Grace stood at the bench under
a cherry blossom tree and waited. Finally Takeru and Travis were coming
to her just down the road. "Well... honey what's it going to be?" asked
Travis. "All right... just listen to me guys. Don't get me wrong on
this,
so here it goes: I like you both but I'm not ready for things like
that."
she said. "So your point is?" asked Travis. "I'm not ready to have
boyfriend
yet." said Grace. "I understand." said Takeru. Then he took her by the
hand and walked her home. "This isn't over by longshot." Travis said
under
his breath. Then way went his separate way.
