Beaming at her brother Sophia took another bowling ball she practiced a little before shot away her ball. This time the ball didn’t end up in the gutter but it was very close. Grimacing Sophia mouthed out in frustration. "Just perfect, I usually aim better than this."

Shaking her head she picked up another ball and debated her next shot while Orlando spoke about the ministry. Turning to him Sophie exclaimed "That sounds fun and important. You should apply anyway. If you dazzle them with an awesome application then maybe they will look past your age. Don't just give up, if working as a liaison is your dream." She urged. Orlando was not going to give up if she could have anything to say about it.
"I agree with you there." he said nodding "They definitely are. But somehow I scare away all the girls, and somehow a bowling date with a guy just appears awkward." Yeah he wasn't going there! Friends or not it appeared to look like it shouldn't, and really he didn't like giving that impression!!! Beaming back he watched as she sent the second ball down the alley and grinned as it looked like it might hit a few then pulled a face "You're just warming up don't worry."

Picking up his first ball, he moved to send it down the alley, once it came to the front and he should have released it the hole closed around one of his fingers "It would be fu...n OUCH!" Grabbing the ball he tried yanking his thumb out of the mouth hole, "Let go!" A squelching noise could be heard then some cackling. Sighing he set the ball down and chose another. Swinging his arm back the ball went straight down the center of the alley towards the first pin and swerved at the last second into the gutter. Tossing his head back he sighed again "They don't like me...never have..."

"It would be fun" he said nodding, "And I do continue sending in applications just haven't gotten bitten yet."
