the room, ending in a splits. When we were
finishing our routine, papa walked in.
    “ Hi Papa! Heh heh!” I said
pathetically.
    “ Hi onkel Andreas!” Hilde
said.
    “ Hi girls. Anyways, Have you guys
invited your friends yet?”
    “ Just doing it.” We
replied.
    We both grabbed our phones and texted our
friends. I invited my best friend Alex- she hates the name
Alexandra- Jake, Darryl and Harrison.
     
    Two hours later, though it seemed like longer,
happened at The Pizza Place. As kids everyone always had parties at
The Pizza Place. It was so much fun!
    Darryl arrived first, then Alex, followed by
Harrison and Jake. As soon as they walked in, I waved over a
waiter. The guy had shiny black hair and dark deep eyes. He also
had a stud earring. Alex practically fell over him. I rolled my
eyes.
    “Hi! Can we have five glasses of Sprite and
two large pepperoni pizzas?” I asked, putting on my best fake
smile.
    “Anything for two beautiful ladies!” He said
in a fake Italian accent.
    Alex blushed and flipped her dark hair. She
gazed adoringly at him, batting her large green eyes. Her tan skin
turned pink, as she smiled and giggled at him.
    “OMG! He’s so cute!” Alex squealed, as he left
the table. We all rolled our eyes and sighed. Alex was like this a
lot. It was a wonder that she hated drama.
    Ten minutes later, we were digging into the
greasy, unhealthy, oily, delicious pizza. We devoured it in less
than eight minutes. Darryl would probably say something
smarty-pants. Like, we consumed it in seven minutes and forty-eight
seconds. Then, he would go on to say that the probability of us
eating brownies and ice cream was one hundred percent.
    Alex and I had strawberry, Jake had rocky road
and Harrison and Darryl had chocolate.
    Darryl wiped his mouth and cleared his throat
before asking, “So, Carly, what’s the special event?”
    “ We got our grades back and I got
a three point seven four!” I replied, excitedly.
    “ Neat! I got a four point o.”
Darryl said, with no show-offy tone in his voice.
    I couldn’t help but feel envious at his
natural smartness. I brushed my hair out of my face and stared at
the floor for a while, before I composed myself.
    “So, you guys, how did you do?” I asked the
rest.
    “Okay, I got a three point three” Harrison
said.
    “I got a three point two!” Alex said,
enviously.
    We looked at Jake expectantly. “Oh. Uh...I got
a two point nine! heh...heh…” He trailed off slowly.
    I immediately sensed he was lying, and judging
by the looks on Harrison’s and Darryl’s faces, I guessed they knew
to. I quickly changed the subject to sports. Alex launched into a
full description of her gymnastics performance. I tried to pay
attention, but my thoughts kept wandering to Jake. In the end I
gave up and just nodded occasionally.
     
    I pushed him against the wall and stared at
him accusingly. “Why did you lie?”
    “What are you talking about?” Jake asked, so
innocently I almost believed him. Almost.
    “You know what I’m talking about!” I said
furiously.
    “Okay, fine!” He surrendered.
    “So, what did you get?”
    “A 0.12” He said meekly.
    “What!!”
    “Could you say that a bit louder please? I
don’t think Chile heard you that well!”
    “Oh. Sorry.” I apologized, lamely. “But are
you serious?”
    “No Carly, I’m a giant clam!” He said,
frustrated.
    “Be serious!” I yelled.
    “Yes, I got a 0.12! Are you happy
now?”
    “OMG! I’m so, so sorry Jake!”
    “ It’s okay! I’ll be fine.
Harrison’s tutoring me in math!”
    “ If you’re sure.” I said,
uncertainly.
    “ I am!” He replied, a huge fake
smile plastered on his face.
    I glanced at him uncertainly. “Okay. If you
say so.”
    “ Let’s go back to the
others!”
    “ Okay.”
    We walked back to the others just as Darryl
was explaining the habitats of brown bears.
    “ You see, scientists do suspect
that some grizzly bears still roam around in Washington. However,
there is no
