Chapter 4:
We went to a pizzeria that night. It's Caira' favorite restaurant. She had reached home before me and had met dad and played with him a bit. She's childish.
" One pizza with goat's cheese, capsicum an onions please" , I said.
" I want a margerita!". That obviously was Caira. She doesen't eat at all. All she eats is cheese, cheese and more cheese.
" A large pepperoni for us please" Mom's voice boomed.
" Yes ma'am".
" So, yoou watching your weight Rah??" Dad asked me.
My petname is 'Rah' as in the last part of SaRAH.
"Nope! Whhy you asking dad?"
" Coz you ordered goat's cheese.........."
" Well I realised about a month ago that I like goat's cheese better than normal cheese. It happened right here, on this same table while I was sitting on my spot."
" Aaah. Good. It's good for your health. Megan( my mom) i'm so happy that neither of our kids are vegans. It would be so difficult bringing them up."
" Yup" then she muttered something but I was able to hear it. She said, " In any case I bring them up on my own. You're never there."
" You said something mom??"
"No Caira! Oh look! The food's here! Let's dig in!"
I could sense the tension between mom and dad. Dad was hardly there because he worked as a doctor and flew around Africa and was trying to cure the people there. Mom and Dad didnt want to tell either of us about their problems but unfortunately I had bat's ars and I could hear them fighting whenever Dad visited. It was kinda depressing.
We went home after an awesome dinner. We were home by 7pm. Dad had said that I could call my friends for a sleepover so I called Gemma and Jenny ( I tok their numbers at the bus stop) and they came over. They both wore their jammies and came. I was the only one in jeans. Eh, what a pain to change now. Gemma had got all her nail polish shades. She had all. Name any colour and she'd have it. She even brought hair supplies. Even I wasn't this girly.
"Hey babe!"
" Hey guys! Come on in!"
" Rah, Could I also join you guys?" asked Caira.
"No! Remember how you told all my secrets to my friends last time?!"
"Oh in that case! Join us! Tell us all about "Rah" "
" Ok. Your friends said it! Not me!"
" ugh! Ok guys so that's my mom Megan. That's my dad Phillip and that irritating dumbo is my sis Caira"
" Hi!" they said in unison.
Lets go upstairs.
We entered my room and they saw my wall filled with pictures of me and rock concerts and said " Woaw Sarah! You're totally a punk!"
" Well yes. I am a punk. And also call me 'Rah' "
" k"
" Jenny did you tell Gemma th Brad Pitt joke??"
" Oh yup! She fell down laughing! Also I forgot to tell you something! I'm Gemma's new neighbor! Awesome huh?!?!?!"
"Yeah!!!! Awesome!!!!"
"ikr!" Shouted Gemma.
" Girls keep it down! We're trying to watch TV." Mom said.
" Sorry Mrs. Johnson."
