"Why do we need to sneak out of the house if we're not doing anything wrong until we sneak onto the subway?" Riley asked Maya and I.
"You think you're ready to just walk by your parents?" Maya asked
"I think I'm ready." She replied with Maya and I looking at her like we didn't believe her.
"Let us see your face as you walk by your parents," I said and we watched as Riley's face to one of panic
"Why are you making that face at us, Riley?" Maya asked her, acting as one of her parents
"Because I'm sneaking out to the subway. Out the window," she says while pointing at the window.
"Let's go" Maya says and her and Riley climb out of the window while I counted down "3,2,1.." I saw them crawl back into the room while Cory was crawling in front of them. I shook my head as the girls sat down on the bed.
"Here's what I'm thinking. It's not your world yet. It's still my world. Because if it was your world, Maya and Deja would have you on the subway already, thinking you put something over on me. But you didn't. Know how I know? Look at you. You're right here." Cory said before looking over at me.

"Oh! What I forgot to mention is that I'm completely reinventing myself. I ride the Subway now, I have kiwi lips now, and I'm just as cool as you now!" Riley retorted
Maya looks over Riley's shoulder "Yeah, let's see how cool you can be when you look at him." Maya said pointing behind her.
Riley and I turn around and the boy looked up, smiled at Riley, and then looked over at me.. staring. Riley awkwardly smiles, then turns to Maya and giggles
