Friends I like to visit with!

I’m really excited.  Today I’m going to my friend Mikayla’s house.  I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to see her, and I just can’t wait!  I get into the car and buckle up.  I then have to wait a full five minutes for my dad to finish going to the bathroom. He always takes forever when doing #2.  I’m beginning to get impatient with him.  My sister saves me with crackers.  When he finally comes out he looks like he’s going to the beach.  On the way there, he plays country roads.  When we get there, he says, Here’s your stop.  Have fun!

 

I gasp when I get inside. It is most splendiferous (a word I made up).  There are vines hanging from the ceiling.  Hanging from the vines were several carefully constructed robot monkeys, fluff for fur, ranging in color depending on the kind of monkey it was.  There were little robo hedgehogs on the floor, which was covered in a sort of extremely soft sort of grass.  And although there were many more animals, I found that  when I laid down on the soft grass, I saw little switches on the bellies, meaning they were all robots.  Then Mikayla came in and saw me, laying  there gaping.  She grinned. “Gotcha!!!” she says.  I sigh.  “Like my new home?”  she  asked.

 

“You betcha,” I said.

 

“Here, come to my room,”  she said.

 

           “Okay dokay,”

 

“Voila,” she said, throwing open a window.

 

“This is your room?” I asked.  We were in a skinny hallway with an open window.

 

“No.  But stick your head out the window and you’ll see.”

 

So I did. I stuck my head out the window and gasp again.  The door at the end of the hallway stuck into a tree. “Whoa.  That’s totally amazing,” I say, pulling my head back through the window.

 

“I know, right!  Now let’s go in,” she said.  So we did.  When I saw how many pokemon she had, I immediately said,

 

            “Let’s trade.”  

 

“Whatever,”  she said.

 

That day, I got a Heracross EX, a Blastoise, a Victini, a Oshoat, and a Snorlax.  We pretended we were Pokemon.  We (sigh) scared away annoying big brothers and little sisters.  We ran through the woods and climbed in a treestand.  We sneaked snacks, saw snakes, slipped on sticks, and scraped sycamores.  Oh, and we watched Kooper chase squirrels.                                                                                       

I was disappointed when my Dad came back, but he had to go through the whole house to find me, and Mikayla and I both laughed at his awed expression and said: “Gotcha!!!”
