Escape from life

Chapter 8:Daisy's Party 2

When Karen and Rita walked in, it was loud. There was lame Kidz pop music coming out of these huge speakers and all that.

There were blowup photos of Daisy plastered all over the walls and long rows of tables filled with food. There was even a chocolate fountain.

Karen let go of Rita's hand and said "Okay Rita, you go and have fun and look for your friends. I'm going to look for the Mayor but when you want to leave, just text me." Rita frowned. "But I don't have a-"

Karen cut her off. "Bye!!!" She pushed past all the little girls and adults and headed straight for the Mayor. Rita went to look around for Jenny. Suddenly she appeared behind her. "Rita you came!!! I was looking for you!!!"

Rita smiled. "Yeah I came and I love your dress!!" They started chit chatting until Jenny had to use the bathroom. "I'll be right back, I drank too many glasses of punch!!" she yelled as she started running towards the bathrooms.

Rita felt kind of hungry so she went to the food tables. She stopped at the chocolate fountain and gasped. She grabbed a plate and filled it with fruit and drizzled chocolate on it. When she turned around, she bumped into someone.

She turned and looked to see a guy in a suit standing behind her. He was about her age. He had brown hair with a quiff in the front and kind of tan skin with brown eyes. She thought he was cute. He smiled at her.

She blushed really hard. "Um... Excuse me... Sorry. Hi..." He smiled even wider.

"Hi, my name is Neymar." He stuck out his hand.

She looked at it and hesitantly took it. "Rita."

He let go of her hand and said "That's pretty. I like your name."

She looked down and tried not to smile. "Um thanks."

He looked around. "Soo... Do you want to dance? With me? I mean, this music sucks but still."

Rita said "Yeah suree." He held out his hand. She took it and he led her on the dance floor in the middle of the room.

As soon as they started dancing, Daisy came along with Tiasha and Tiana.

"Well it looks like the loser came. And what are you doing with MY man?? And WHY are you wearing a dress that looks exactly like mine??? It's custom made!!!"

Rita looks at her and says "That's a lie. I got this at Gucci's."

Daisy looks shocked. "That's impossible!!! How can you afford it?? My daddy said it cost a fortune!!!"

Rita shrugged. "Actually it was on the clearance rack. For 99 cents." Daisy turned to look at her dad. He shrugged and said "Sorry honey, we are broke."

Suddenly the music stops and everyone looks at Daisy. Karen was walking by. "Broke?!?!" She drops her salad tray and looks at him. "But your bank account on Twitter said you had 10 million dollars!!!!"

He thinks about it and says "Oh you're talking about my bank account from last year."

Karen says, "Forget this I'm out!!!" Around her you can hear people agreeing and leaving.

Daisy says, "Dad how can we afford all this??"

"We can't. That's why it's for rent."

She says "What?!" He says "Yeah that 99 cent dress is for rent too. So don't get it dirty. Plus pack your bags because this house for rent ends tonight. And we are moving to Super 8."

As Daisy is crying and Rita turns to leave, Neymar grabs her hand. "Wait! Give me your number!!!"

Karen grabs Rita's arm and yanks her away from Neymar. As Rita is almost out the door, she yells to Neymar

"I don't have a phoneeee..!!!!"
