CHAPTER 4Here we were talking with Johnny, the little kid next door, so he can cover for the both of us.
As soon as mom went out of my room Nicole and I headed out to talk to Johnny.
"Hey, Johnny!" Nicole went ahead of me. "We need a favor from you."
He looked up from the ground annoyed because we had interrupted him while he was drawing something on a notebook. "What is it?"
"Well we need you to take the blame for us." Nicole said to him not really interested in what she was saying. Probabilities were that she was ashamed of what we did or the fact that we were asking for help to an eight year old. She opened her mouth to say something but I beat her to it.
"What Nicki means is that we did something we were not supposed to do and we don't want to get in trouble so we need your help saying it was you who did the mess, but don't worry cuz you won't get in trouble. Plus, if you want us to do something for you please say it."
"Why should I help if you did a bad thing knowing you would get in trouble?" he asks us making it more difficult to cover our lie.
"Well you see, sometimes we do things not thinking about what will happen later and probably we think we made the right decision but when the time comes you realize it was a mistake that you knew you shouldn't have done it but we chose to do it anyway." I said this not only referring to the mess we made but about life too and I hope I think before I make decisions that I will regret later.
"Please JoJo don't do this to us and help us. We promise to help you in whatever you need." Nic pouted at Johny and kneeled down in front of him. JoJo was how she called him.
"Oh don't make me feel guilty. I'll help you, alright. But there's something I need you to do for me." For a kid of eight years he was sure a smart boy and so mature. Sometimes I got ashamed of myself because this boy could be more intelligent than me.
"We'll do anything. Just name it." My friend spoke again and I nodded above her as she rose to her feet.
"Not know, I'll tell you after I finish my job of covering up for you." He said while going back to finish his drawing on the notebook.
We headed back into my house and my mother gave us a curious look as we pass by her to the kitchen.
"May I know why you were talking to Johny?" She followed us all the way to my kitchen, err.. I mean the kitchen.
"And how do you know what we were doing?" I open the fridge and start looking for something to eat.
"I...I was just walking by the window and... and paused to take a break?? And just so happened to see you at our neighbors lawn talking to their kid?" She gave me an innocent look as I turn around and narrow my eyes at her after giving an are you serious look. She sits at one of the high chairs in the counter and looks at Nicole "So, Nicki?? What's up?" Nicole shook her head "Nice try, Isabelle."
Mom shrugs her shoulders "Was worth a try."
Nic and I exchange looks and shake our heads at the same time. We already know mom and we know how she is with her personality and her mood swings.
They say girls get mood flings when they're on their period but as that's true I'd say mom's always on her period.
After hanging out all afternoon, Nicole leaves and I get ready to sleep.
I'm almost out when I hear my phone vibrate from the drawer in the nightstand. I stretch my head, grab the phone, and see it's a text from Min Ho.
Min Ho: Are you sleeping yet??
