(Kisha's POV)

I need to go to the mall now, but how? I can't drive, Lorane can't drive. I probably can't ask Bill or Mitch to do it.

"Lorane," I start as I close the door to her room. "I need to go to the mall, now. I just don't know how."

"Well," She says, trailing off. "I could ask my driver to drive us though. Want to?"

I nod; she gets up from the bed, puts down her book, and asks their driver to drive us to the mall, without Bill knowing.

He called her mom first for permission, she agreed. Lorane jumped in happiness as she took my hand and ran downstairs. We both went inside their van and drove to the mall.

The mall is crowded today; many people are walking in different shops. Walking in and out with many paper bags in their hands and arms. I just need to find a store that sells soundcards. Lorane found out my problem and told me where.

We went there, a long line of people greeting us. I get our number, hearing millions of chattering people looking for stuff. Few minutes later, a lady call out my number and I immediately walked to her.

"Uhm." I said, "Do you have soundcards? For Ps3."

She nod, going somewhere and going back bringing a small package with some USB thingy. "This?" Oh no, I'm not really sure what it looks like. Maybe Lorane knows it, so I called her. She went to us and nod.

"Yeah that's it."

"That'll be $1.50." She said, getting the money I brought from my pocket. I fished deeper until I felt something paper-like. She whistles, waiting for my payment, her grip getting stronger as minutes pass.

Finally I got a good grip on the money and gave her. She let go of the soundcard and gave it to me.

"Thanks" I said, going out the store dragging Lorane with me.

"We're home, boys!" Lorane says, banging the door into the house; both of them going out the gaming room, holding controllers each.

"Do we have something?" Mitch asks playfully.

"No." I said. They both went in the gaming room with disappointment. But before they could close the door, Lorane stops them.

"No! Wait!" She pauses, Mitch and Bill stopping. "Just kidding, we have food, idiots."

We could call ourselves whatever we want, as long as we'll laugh at it and not take it seriously. I hand them the bag I was holding, containing food. They both grabbed and opened it.

"Junk food! Yeah!" Mitch said, grabbing two bags while Bill grabbed three. They went into the gaming room leaving the excess food on the floor, in the bag.

"Idiots." Lorane said, rolling her eyes and picking up the food. We both went to the couch and watched some movies. I get food from the bag Bill and Mitch left earlier. We watched 'The Host' until the idiot duo went out from the gaming room.

"What's on?" Mitch asks, sitting beside Lorane.

"The Host, wanna watch?" Lorane said; Mitch nod, signaling her yes. Bill went back from the kitchen and sit in between me and Mitch.

From the duo, probably, Mitch is close to Lorane, pretty much, wonder what's going on with them.

"Hey Bill?" Lorane asks, taking a bite from her chip.

"Yeah?" He replied, staring into her eyes.

"How's the party going?" She asks, concentrating back at the movie while Mitch and I stay quiet.
