Why? Why not?

Chapter 7

"A couple day's had past since the event that took place in Penelope's room. Josie and Penelope had been texting non-stop. But they hadn't talked to each other, face to face much since that night. Mostly because they had very conflicting schedules. 

Josie and Mg were on there way to class. Mg was clearly in a hurry but Josie not so much. "Ey if you ain't gonna hurry up, I'm going to have to leave you." he said. "It's okay Mg, go." Josie replied. " Thanks." he turned around ready to sprint away. "Ey isn't that you special lady friend over there." the pointed in the opposite direction.  

Josie turned around. She walked over to the girl who was sitting on a staircase sipping on what looked like a Frappuccino. She was reading a book. "Hey, I thought you had classes all morning. "I do." Penelope replied without taking her eyes of her book. "So what are you doing here?" Josie asked. Penelope turned her head. "Have you never heard of skipping, it's this thing that kids do when they don't want to go to class?" Penelope teased. 

"What are you skipping?" Josie asked purposely ignoring Penelope's teasing.  

"The worst subject in the history of all subjects, Math." Penelope said. 

"Math is not that bad." Josie said

"Yeah it is." 

"Aren't you like half Asian? Aren't you supposed to be good at Math." Josie teased wanting to get Penelope back for her teasing earlier.

Penelope took a deep breath as she pretended to be offended. "First off stereotype much, second off, I never said I was bad at it, I just  I hate it." Penelope said smiling.

Josie started walking up the stairs. "Would you mined if I joined you?" Josie asked carefully.

"Join me? You want to skip class with me?" Penelope asked. Josie nodded her head. 

"I mean we never have time to hang out after school and I don't think my English teacher is gonna notice I'm not there." Josie said as she sat down. 

"Okay but if were skipping were doing something better than this, come on." Penelope got up and held out her hand towards Josie.

"What do you have in mind." Josie hesitated. 

"Trust me Saltzman." Penelope said with a soft smile.

"Ahh what the hell." Josie took Penelope's hand.

A few moments later

Penelope and Josie got  to the kitchen. Where a little was beautifully set. 

"What is this?" Josie asked 

"Well originally I wanted to sneak you out of your room tonight but nobody is gonna be in here for at least three hours so I thought why not do it now." Penelope chuckled nervously.

"This is amazing Penelope but not to be rude but were is the food." Josie said again trying to tease Penelope.

"Believe it or not but I'm actually a very great and fancy chef, it's one of my many skills." she explained. "Today I will prepare Lamb chops ala Park" she stated proudly. 

"Was that supposed to sound fancy, because that doesn't sound fancy at all" Josie said teasingly.

"Shut up I know" Penelope pouted.

"I'm hoping  you'll still enjoy it." Penelope pulled the seat back for Josie. "My Lady." she said with a smile.

"Thank you P" Josie said sitting down.

"My pleasure Jojo."
