“Lana, how’s it going? I’m off to the supermarket to get some stuff in for your parents coming tomorrow. D’you need anything?” Judith asked, popping her head around the door. Lana looked up from the books in front of her.
“It’s going okay. No, don’t think I need anything. Do you want me to pay for some of it? I mean, it’s my parents...”
“No, I won’t have that. I’ll see you later anyway. Vic’s upstairs, doing god knows what. I don’t know what’s got into that girl. Bye.”
“Bye,” Lana replied, looking back at what she was working on. If she could only finish it quickly then, she could start getting stuff ready for tomorrow. The last three weeks had gone really quickly, what with school, and her friends, and Carlos. Surprisingly, he had become quite a good friend, as had Jack, and Tara. Sephy was still a work in progress.
Her dad skyped her last night (he tried his best to be all modern, unlike her mum), telling her how excited he was about coming to see her, and how her mum was running around trying to sort out things that didn’t even need to be done, like always before they went on holiday. She’d taken a day to pack and they were only coming for a week.
Lana heard a bang as the door was opened and slammed shut. Funny, considering Judith should already have gone by now. Her bedroom door burst open and Lana jumped up.
“Oh, it’s you,” she exhaled, then settled back down, getting back to work.
“Excuse me, but what sort of a welcome is that, oveja. You’ve wounded me!” Carlos moaned, throwing himself down onto her bed.
“Hey, don’t jog me. Go do something else. I want to get this done. Go watch TV or go on my laptop or mow the lawn. Judith said it needs to be done. I’ll be there as soon as I can.”
“Okay, I’ll use your laptop then. Budge up, chica.”
“How much room does your fat Spanish ass you need? Go sit in the living room or something.”
“Okay.” He stalked out of the room.
Twenty minutes later Lana let out a sigh of relief, finally finished.
“Lana, someone called Tansy Davies has started talking to me. Oh and she’s commented on your status, as well as someone called Lucy James, and Cass has liked one of your statuses. Oh, yeah, someone called Jake’s talking to me now,” Carlos shouted, and it took a second for Lana to realise what he was talking about.
“GET OFF MY FACEBOOK!” Lana screamed, rushing to the living room and grabbing her laptop off of him. Sure enough, everything he’d said was true.
