One Week Later
"Today is Wednesday, tomorrow's Thursday‼" I shouted from the top of my lungs like an infant screaming for candy. Moanna turns to me in awe. She says, "Will you shut your pie hole! Maybe that wide mouth of yours should become dormant." We both laugh. I comment back, "At least it's not as invective as yours‼"
Moanna chuckles then suddenly stops. "Ha, ha. Very funny." I turn to her raising an eyebrow, replying in an Elvis Presely voice, "Uh, thank, Uh thank you very much."
We're sitting in the living room watching TV when we hear a knock on the door.
~Knock, Knock~
Moanna gestures me to go open the door. "Ugh..." I dragged myself to the door and opened it. There is a mailman standing way to happy on the front porch. I tie my eyebrows in a knot. "Hey. Um, can I help you?" The mailman continues smiling. "Yes. Um, are you Iolani Alana?" My eyebrows begin to un-knot, then cross my arms. "Yes, yes I am." The mailman takes out a large envelope with my name on it and hands it to me. "Here you go." He then walks away as I step back into the house.
Moanna says, "So, what's that?" I sit next to her and reply, " A letter. You open it, please??
She grabs it from me and says, "Sure," with a big smile on her face.
