Things Fall Apart
Camp
Patrick sat next to Yaz on the couch. Ben was scribbling a drawing a Bumpy, Sammy was sitting on the couch with Yaz and Patrick while Kenji was leaning back on a chair.
Suddenly, the door burst open and Darius ran through happily.
"Good morning Camp Cretaceous!" Darius exclaimed. "Who hoo!"
Kanji turned to Darius.
"Not in that kind of mood Darius." Kanji said.
"Okay, the gyrosphere day might not have gone well, but today's a new day!" Darius yelled. "Kayak day!"
Darius looked around.
"Where are Dave and Roxie?" Darius questioned.
"The baby sitters, left early and left this." Kanji explained handing Darius a note.
Darius stared at the note in pure bewilderment.
"Don't bother." Patrick said. "I can translate. They're going to take to their boss."
"Oh, that makes sense." Darius said examining the note.
Suddenly, the back door slammed open. The teens turned and saw Brooklyn glaring at Sammy and Patrick.
"Brooklyn." Patrick said.
"What's new on the internet superstar?" Yasmin's asked.
"I wouldn't know." Brooklyn growled.
"Because when I went to get my phone from my charger, it wasn't there!" Brooklyn yelled. "Someone, stole my phone!"
"Who hasn't." Yasmina said.
"I had to check the weather last night." Ben said.
"Dr. Stattler posted a new column yesterday..." Darius said nervously.
Brooklyn rolled her eyes before glaring in between Sammy and Patrick again.
"I... haven't seen it either..." Sammy answered nervously.
"Me neither." Patrick answered confidently.
"Really?" Brooklyn questioned.
"Hey, hey, it's okay." Darius said trying to break the tension. "Since we're not kayaking till later, we have plenty of time to look for the phone."
"Oh, I think I know exactly where to look." Brooklyn said. "I also think that whoever took the phone, might be trying to hide some of the things that are on it."
She looked down at Sammy and Patrick.
"Sammy, Patrick, what do you think?" She asked accusingly.
"What are you talking about?" Patrick asked nervously.
"What's your deal?" Yasmina questioned angrily. "They both said, they didn't touch it. Patrick was with me last night. Ever think you might have just lost the stupid thing?!"
Brooklyn scoffed.
"Hmm. Well then, let's check their bags and test that theory out" she suggested but I stood up almost instantly and blocked her way.
"NO!" I snapped angered. "Do not go through my stuff! I did not..."
She was about to respond when Darius began to jump behind us.
"Brooklyn, guys, come on!" Darius yelled desperately, gaining all our attention.
"We can't be this upset over phones." he said. "let's make the most of this incredible opportunity!"
