Rosalind's POV:

She starts talking to me. Im struggling to keep the conversation going. I start to warm up to her, she laughs a lot. Sometimes at pointless things but it makes her easier to talk to.

"What do you want to do?" I ask her

"I don't know, what do you like to do?"

"Well I collect beads and I make jewelry out of them, it's fun."

"We could make matching bracelets and necklaces!" She exclaims.

"Yeah! let me show you my beads."

We start making the necklaces and start a deep conversation about the church.

"Rosalind! Rosalind!" Bella yells bursting into my room. One disadvantage to my antique door.

"What!?!" I exclaim

"What are Y'all doing?"

"Nothing go away!" Bella can be so annoying sometimes.

Zoey looks at me, then Bella.

"Bella, I'm dying of thirst, would you go get me a drink?" Zoey winks at me.

Bella leaves, then comes back in no time with a jug in her hand. She hands it to Zoey. Zoeys eyes widen.

"Why so big?"

"You said you were dying of thirst."

Then I ask her. Buts she snaps at me and says "get it yourself." Gotta love sisters.

"Come on Zoey, let's go jump on the trampoline!" I suggest getting fed up with Bella!

"Ok that's sounds fun." We walk out to my back yard and hop on the trampoline. Zoey does flips and bounces. I just watch.

Soon Ash, Maddy, Bella, and Zach come to get on the trampoline. Zach wrestles around with Ash. "How old is he?" I ask Zoey quietly.

"He's 14 about to be 15." That's only a year older than me!

Zach starts to do flips. "Hey Rosalind? Can you flip?"

"Uh, yeah." I say quietly. he makes me feel weak and shy.

"Come on then." He says flashing me a perfectly straight smile that look a lot like Zoey's.

What's this weird feeling in my stomach, is it butterflies. Oh no. Maybe.

I jump up and flip. I flip perfectly.

"Good job!" He states and starts chasing Maddy around the trampoline.

"I look at Zoey, she just shakes her head, he's always like this."
