Maddie's Pov
'Come on Sally, I don't want to be late for the train. I don't want to wait forever for the next one'
I grabbed onto Sally and ran into the train station.
'Hang on, you're going to fast!' Sally says whilst trying to hold back me.
I really wanted to get on the early train to her house. Waiting for the next train would feel like forever, so I had to get on that early train. Anyways I walked to to the station from school instead of catching the school bus which is a lot of effort considering the way I sound lazy to walk. Sally and I walked up to the timetable, the Lidcombe train was arriving in 3 minutes. I read ' Lidcombe 3minutes door 6.'
'Sally follow me'. I yelled looking back at her while running to door 6.
'Ouch' I fell down to the ground. Dusting the dirt of my clothes. I look up and see a hand reaching for me. Assuming it was Sally I grabbed the hand and I was pulled up immediately. As I take a proper look, I see a boy. He was actually pretty hot I thought to myself.
'Thanks' I said graciously to the boy that helped me up.
'You're welc-' the boy stopped his sentence seeing me run to the entrance to the Lidcombe bus.
Sally was running behind me. I saw the bus and yelled 'Sally it's here'. I looked back at Sally and she had a concerned look on her face which confused me but I still tried to get on the train. Sally was yelling something but I couldn't hear it over the sound of the train and all the passengers passing. I hopped on the train and the seats were full so I had to hold onto the handles of the train. I was looking for Sally while still staying in place for convenience but I couldn't see her. I reached in my pocket of my school blazer for my phone but I couldn't find it. 'Shit' I thought to myself, 'how am I supposed to get to Sally's house, I have never even been there before'. I looked down at the bottom of the train, trying to calm myself down and think were it could have gone missing. 'Ahhhh' I screamed as I felt to hands grab me by my shoulders. I looked around and saw Sally laughing at me.
'Hahahahaha you we- and i wa- and it was li- hahahaha' Sally couldn't finish her sentence because she was laughing to much.
'I know what I was like Sally, I was there, I was the one you scared literally just then' I said with a bit of an annoyed tone.
'You know I hate being scared like that' I said.
'Yes I know, that's why I do it' she chuckles.
'NEXT STOP CHATSWOOD, NEXT STOP CHATSWOOD' said the train driver into the speakers.
'Chatswood!' I yelled looking back at Sally.
'Oh, yeah, that's what I was trying to tell you but you were already going onto the train' Sally said.
It made me feel guilty. I should have stopped to fully examine the time table but instead we on a train to Chatswood. I must have seen door 6 instead of door 9.
'CHATSWOOD' the train driver said through the speakers as the doors opened.
'Get off here, if we stay on the train we will get further away from home' Sally said to me.
We got off the train and were at Chatswood station. I was feeling a bit hungry.
'Hey can we get a bite to eat at the closest fast food shop?' I asked Sally.
'Sure but we have to go find it. I think there is one outside the train station' Sally said to me leading me out of the station.
As soon as we got out of the station Sally spotted McDonalds. She pointed it out to me and we walked over there. Once we got in we checked the menu.
'This time, check the board properly' Sally said in a bit of a teasing sarcastic way.
'Haha, so funny aren't you funny' I said to Sally in a sarcastic tone of voice.
'Next' said the girl at the register.
'Ummmm, cheese burger, medium fries and a coke slurpee' I said looking at Sally motioning towards the register.
'Make that double the order' Sally said.
We got the receipt and sat down. Soon enough our order was ready, I offered to get it. I got the maccas food tray and walked back to the table to see Sally on her phone.
'Foods here' I said to Sally. She had no response.
'Food' I said again trying to get her attention but her eyes were still stuck on her phone.
'What are you doing on your phone' I said looking over her shoulder.
'I'm on Instagram' she said with a quick glance up to me then back to down to her phone.
'Instagram?' I questioned.
'Yeah' she replied.
'How don't you need data?' I asked.
'Yer but maccas has free internet connection. Give me your phone. I'll connect you to the wifi' Sally said finally looking up at me.
'I lost my phone' I said 'Can you call it?' I asked Sally.
'Sure' Sally said instantly calling my number.
It started to ring. After 5 seconds of ringing someone picked up. Sally and I looked at each other at the same time with a puzzled look on our faces. We both got closer to the phone.
'Hello' I said into the phone.'Hi' a somewhat familiar voice replied.
Who answers the phone. I know its kinda obvious but oh well.
