A Song For Christians

Chapter 2

This Chapter is dedicated to my family for their support and their love, and to Katy Perry for giving me inspiration for Miranda's best friend to sing her song Firework.

Miranda walked for about 20 blocks before seeing the Johnsonville Baptist Church. It has stood there since 1998 and rarely has a lot of people there. Even on Sunday's it has about a few people going there but no one knows how anyone can afford a big place. The church looked to be taking about 150 acres of land and had a double set of doors. It even had a steeple that was about 50 feet tall.

Miranda never went inside there but heard that the church never had much music nor a piano but they did have an amazing preacher that tells you what the Lord does. Jenka told Miranda that she had visited that place and said that it was nice and would be better if Miranda had sung there. But Miranda told Jenka that she had wanted to still keep it a secret about her talent. Jenka had understood that but still argued about Miranda being like a bottle that will never be opened unless she takes a risk.

She just rolled her eyes at that and continued on. Jenka always had some weird ideas about everything in the way she see's the world, thought Miranda as she walked for about 10 more blocks on Wallnut Drive and then took a right. Finally she found herself standing in front of The Barkensy Hotel. Where are you Jenka? thought Miranda as she looked around for her best friend. Just as she thought that, she heard a voice shout "Yo, Miranda!! Over here!!"

Miranda turned and saw Jenka standing behind the window of their hangout place. She just smiled and shook her head at Jenka while trying to hold in her laugh. So with that settled on where her friend was, Miranda walked up the steps, opened the door, and closed it behind her. Sometimes Jenka would get on her funny side and would make Miranda laugh a lot to cheer her up. Often times Jenka's parents never minded that their youngest daughter, Jenka, was Miranda's best friend. In fact they never minded it at all, cause they were sad about the thing between Miranda and her parents. They often invite Miranda over for dinner or roasting marshmallows.

To Miranda, they often were like her own parents. But she knew that her real parents would never become like Jenka's parents.

"Now is the time for Karaoke People!! If you can sing then come on down and try it out!!" shouted a bellhop, one of the waiters, standing next to a table that held a computer.

Heading over to their favorite spot, which was next to the stage that held the table and also had a bed for both table and chairs, and on that spot layed none other than Jenka herself. She looked great today with, ditching the fancy shirt, her glamouras fancy golden t-shirt that came only toward her stomach, with a peach shirt underneath it. The fancy skirt was no more, but in it's place was a short black skirt with solid black leggings underneath. Fancy shoes were gone and cute new peach, with hints of golden in it, sandals were in it's place.

"Jenka would you at least skoot over," asked Miranda giggling while placing her purse next to the pillow that Jenka had occupied, along with the one on the other side.

Jenka just shook her head, but it didn't bother Miranda while she thought Have it your way. "Hey waiter!! We have our first volunteer right here!!" she shouted while pointing at Jenka.

Her best friend looked up at her with shock on her face saying gravely "You wouldn't!!"

Miranda smiled at her and chuckled inside of her mouth which meant that she had already did. "Great!! A volunteer!! Come on up ma'm!!" sang the bellhop as he motioned to Jenka for her to come forward onto the stage.

Glaring at her, Jenka grudgingly got off of the bed, allowing Miranda to get on it and lay down to forget about her problems, and went over to the karaoke stage while the bellhop waiter held out his hand to help her up. Finally on there, Jenka went over to the computer to pick out a song when the bellhop waiter asked for her name. "Jenka is my name," she replied while searching for a song to sing.
