Looking at Beezus' sneakers again, she saw the pouting which indicates offended!Beezus. "I like heels. I like flats. I like sneakers too, but believe me, sneakers are meant for shorts and denims, that's just in my own opinion. I love you for whoever you are bestfriend," Erin reassured Beezus. So, are they good now? Are they? Hehe.
Elise Fairfield. "Well, it all started in my second year rebel days. You know I don't really get along well during those days with Tina, my sister, you know her right? I met Enya and then I met Elise. And things happened. We got closer when you drifted away or I. Or..." she took a glance at Beezus. What would she say? Ack! That's a very sensitive topic but she promised her bestfriend that everything will be revealed today. "..er, I mean, we got really close in our third term. And she has nowhere to go during the summer so I invited her in." She needed help. Badly needed help.
Yes, Erin had a new home. "I did. I have. Well, to make it clear, I didn't only got a new home. I got a new life. A new family." That came sooner as expected. And she wouldn't cry. Of course, she wouldn't. She loved her family. She loved everything about them. Every little details.
"Can we move it for later? The snack?" Erin asked Beezus pleading. She badly wanted to play. Those Shrunken heads, awww! Beautifully crafted creatures. "Let's play first, please, please, please."
"But I like her cooking," Erin complained while Beezus was talking about her grandmother's weird thoughts of food delicacies. The memories of her summer with Beezus' family echoed in her head.
Yeah, snack bar, you can wait later. Those shrunken heads looked so cool
and creepy her hunger had completely vanished away.
Oh, Erin. Why'd you have to condemn the girl's sense of fashion? Getting rid of the pout and swapping it for a grin with matching knotted eyebrows, the Ravenclaw eyed her best friend.
"Really? Well..I always knew dresses didn't come too well with sneakers but Erin, you know me..I don't like being too girly and all." Maybe that would change as time goes by. Hopefully. "
Though I sometimes envy your fashion sense. You always look good." Yup, even in those simple jeans she was wearing. SMIRK.
OH. Errr...those days, huh?
"Yes, Tina." Beezus muttered when Erin mentioned her sister. Of course she knew the girl. Nod, nod. "
I see.. I'm glad really. I think Elise is nice." For the few times they had accompanied each other, well, she enjoyed it.
"What happened to her anyway? What do you mean she doesn't have anywhere to go to?" Didn't she have a house?
"Did she ran away from home?"
MERLIN'SPANTS! When did that happen? Beezus stopped on her tracks, unable to say anything as her eyes widened. Erin had a new family? No. Really?
"Wait. Wait. Wait. I don't get it. You have a new family? How did you have a new family?" Did her parents abandon her and sent her to an orphanage? But it can't be. Erin's family wasn't like that. They were even close-knitted. "
Tell me...what really happened?" on those weeks and months that we haven't turned a hair about each other.
