Just as I leave Miss Graham's class I find Troy waiting for me at the door, his good looks never ceiz to amaze me. "Don't you have a spaza to run?" I question him.
"A what?" God I always forget I'm not in south Africa anymore.
"A cafeteria Troy, what are you doing here?" I ask him again.
"We going shopping remember."
"I don't remember inviting you." I say to him.
"Well yea,we invited ourselves."
"What do you mean we?" I act surprised as I look for whomever he's talking about.
"Stop it Amanda,Mason insists on coming with us,I can't say no to him." He finishes explaining to me but its like I'm imagining his explanation.
"Mason,your cousin Mason?" I try to make sense of what I'm hearing as I start walking. When did Troy and I become friends again?
"The one and only,he says he's running away from Hailey,she can be a pist at times." He says, must have happened in the lab,he was blubbering around about how he doesn't have friends apart from Mason. I guess I'm in luck to have gotten him, God forbid.
Now I'm forced to also spend time with my new found enemy,the dude hates me but insists on spending time with me. What the hell does he want from me? Or maybe I'm just reading too much into this,he probably doesn't even see me. He's running away from Hailey as Troy explained.
"Amanda,come we'll take my car, we'll find Mason at the gate." I don't argue with him,I just follow him to the parking lot.
When we get to the parking,we argue about me sitting in the front sit. I'm sure Mason will want to sit there,but Troy keeps saying he won't. Until finally we settle on me sitting at the back,I always win an argument.
When we get to the gate,Mason is talking to some lady who looks to be in her late twenties. She has short brown hair and light skin, just like Masons. They could be twins. When Troy hits the hooter they both turn and its like I'm seeing the female version of Mason.
She's so beautiful,I didn't know people were allowed to be that good looking,I'm so jealous even. "Hello Troy." She says in her most joyful voice through the passenger side window and I immediately know I made a mistake,she can't be Mason's sister,she's too sweet and energetic.
"Hello cousin." Wrong again,they are siblings.
"And who's this pretty lady?" She asks as she takes a look at me. Just then her brother opens the door from my side and gets in,he sits next to me leaving me frozen.
"She's Amanda,my new friend." Troy answers for me. "She's from South Africa." He finishes by saying.
"Well it is nice to meet you Amanda,I'm Molly, the rude one's sister." She says as she points to her brother next to me,she probably noticed that he didn't say hi to me.
"Its also nice to meet you Molly." I politely say.
"Where are you guys off to?" Molly asks.
"Shopping,then dinner." Troy explains to her.
"I don't know anything about dinner." I try to intervin.
"Great,I'll join you guys." Molly ignores me as she gets in the car and Troy drives.
This must be my lucky day,I meet a guy friend who happens to be the cousin of the guy I spend a night with. The guy hate me for some reason might I add. This must be some conspiracy,I'm being kidnapped.
"Am I being kidnapped?" I ask out loud without even thinking it through, Molly and Troy bust out in laughter as Mason just shakes his head,holding in his laughter. Nobody answers me, until...
