Chapter 2
They were silently examining the diamond when they saw a girl around their age run by. They all took off running after her in their socks not realizing that they had forgotten shoes.
They were running so fast that they didn’t really see or know where they were going they just knew they were following that girl. All of a sudden they all stepped in some sticky mud and in their shock they lost the girl!
Oh no! Tabi shouted. We lost her!
“Oh well we can just go back to my house and discuss it“. Rachel decided. “But first look and see what street name this is.”
“It’s Oak St.” Erin informed her. “I already checked”
“Well all this running and mystery stuff is makin me hungry.” Samantha said. “Isn’t it about dinner time?”
“It’s still only 4:30” Rachel said looking at her watch. “And you know we eat late dinners at my house. But we can probably have some cheese and crackers at home”
“Good!” Samantha said. “I don’t know why but I’m just always hungry!”
“Yes we know.” Tabi said.
“Lets start back now” Erin said “I’m getting cold”
“OK back to my house everyone!” Rachel said.
“How do we get there?” Tabi asked assuming Rachel knew the way.
“OH NO!!! I don’t know how to get back home!” Rachel exclaimed. “None of you have a cell phone right?”
“Right” everyone else said.
“Well… Hey wait didn’t you say that this is Oak St.?” Rachel asked not waiting for an answer. “If so then I know how to get to my grandma’s house! I have never walked there before though but she lives on Oak I think. Here lets go this way.”
They walked down a ways and saw a house that Rachel thought was her Grandma’s house, so they went up to it and knocked. Instead and old man came to the door.
“Whadda ya want?” He growled. “This is SUPPOSED to be my nap time when little intruders like YOU don’t come knockin”
OH! I’m so sorry sir! I thought this was my grandma’s house but I guess it’s not. I’m very sorry to interrupt your nap! Rachel said with a smile as the door slammed in her face.
