Crazy // Max and Harvey

6

     "Max?! Harvey?! Oh my god! I'm so happy that I get to see you!" I squealed. Max started laughing at my excitement. Harvey smiled a smile that could make the world explode. Not in a creepy smile way, but an adorable smile way. I think he was blushing too. I don't know.

     "We're so excited to see you too, Alyssa!" Max said happily. Everyone else started filing in the door, my parents, Max and Harvey's parents, and their siblings, Leo and Tilly.

     "We thought it would be nice for you to see them so we took you out of school and brought them here." My dad explained. The twin's mom nodded in agreement.

     "Well it's the best surprise I've ever gotten!" I cheered. My mom took out some hamburger meat and set it in the sink to thaw. I could feel her watching all of us. Leo and Tilly playing with Paris, and Max, Harvey, and I were talking.

     "Here's some money go get a rickshaw to drive you kids around the block." My mom told me as she set $30 on the kitchen counter above the sink.

     "Ok, thanks mom!" I agreed. "Come on guys, lets go!" I exclaimed. Max and Harvey shrugged and got off the couch. Leo and Tilly shot up off the ground and darted for the door.

     "What's a rickshaw?" Harvey asked me in the elevator. I told him that you haven't lived until you've been on one. When the elevator door opened everyone filed out in a huge glob.

     As we all walked out of the building into the warm spring day, I looked around. There was a rickshaw right around the corner of the building. 

     "Follow me guys," I told them when I noticed the rickshaw. I handed the man my $30. "Just around the block and back please." I instructed. He took the money and nodded.

     We all got into the rickshaw and sat down. The man started off, weaving in between cars.

     "Oh my god!" Max kept on saying while Harvey and the little ones squealed. I kept on laughing in excitement.

     When the man pulled over next to the penthouse building where I lived, everyone got out.

     "Thank you!" I called to the man as we left. He nodded his head in acknowledgement. When we got back to my penthouse, everyone plopped down on our couch. 

     "So how was it?" my mom asked eagerly.
