Thanks to you Cassandra i have a stain on my new shirt! I yelled at my bestfriend Cassandra. I was in the garage looking for a cleaning agent. Something to remove the stain from my shirt. I spotted a jar. A glass jar sitting high upon the shelf. Filled with some kind of blue liquid. Labeled Vanishing Goo. "This might just do" i mumbled reaching up high. I reached and reached. On tip toes. I grabbed the jar. The lid flew off. The jar slipped from my hand. The blue liquid covered me! Drenching my red hair in pigtails. Cassandra laughed menacingly. "Cassandra i wish you would just disappear!" I shouted. I quickly ran upstairs to the shower. I scrubbed and scrubbed the chemical off. I dried myself off. I ran to my bedroom across the hall. "Gwen where are you?" A voice called. "Oh no it's Cassandra again" i whispered confusedly. I quickly got dressed. "Gwen?" I heard a voice call my name. I heard her climbing the stairs. She popped inside my bedroom. I stood there frozen. "Gwen? Where are you?" Cassandra asked looking around my room. "I'm right here!" I replied standing in front of her. She couldn't hear me. "It's like I'm invisible!" I cried. I walked up to Cassandra. My purse was sitting out. "No please no" i mumbled as Cassandra walked towards it. "My bestfriend is stealing from me i don't believe it!" I shook my head. She pockets 20 dollars! Right in front of my eyes! "What a thief" i told myself. "Gwen? Where are you?" She called. "Cassandra I'm right here!" I announced. She leaves my house with a smile. I followed her yelling and shouting. Hoping she would hear me. No use. "The Vanishing Goo! That's it I'm invisible!" I told myself. A dog came running towards me. Barking and snarling. "Go away!" I scream. "Wait you can see me?" I ask the tiny poodle. "Now I'm talking to dogs great!" I scolded myself. "This is ridiculous!" I blurted walking in circles thinking. Thinking about what to do with my situation. Okay I'm an invisible girl in the middle of the street and there is a car speeding towards me. "Wait A CAR!" I scream! It passed right by me. "Oh this is just insane!" I cried. "That was kind of cool" i admitted. "Why not enjoy this?" I asked myself. I walked to the park. Kids running and jumping on slides. I ran up the stairs and walked in between a couple of kids towards the slide. The kids looked at eachother. "I felt a chill for a second" one kid said. "Duh i walked through you basically" i said laughing. They didn't know that though. I slid down shouting happily. Usually I'm to old for this kind of stuff being fourteen. But i am invisible, so therefore i don't care. I left the park. I knocked some kids folders onto the ground as i walked. They screamed and took off running. I saw an elderly couple sitting on a bench with a Labrador Retriever. I yelled "blehh!" Into their ears and acted like a monkey at there dog. It barked and tried to chase me. "To bad you're tied to the bench ugly!" I laughed sticking my tongue out. Walking downtown to the ice cream shop. I stumbled inside licking my lips. I walked behind the counter. "Free ice cream" i mumbled. Spooning the ice cream from the tubs into my mouth was amazing. I got a brain freeze! But it was worth it. "Young lady? What do you think you're doing?" A man in a blue uniform asked me. He was a police officer. I looked behind me. "Me? You can see me?" I asked standing there in shock. "Well I'm not talking to the wall missy" he threatened. "Uh ohh" I whispered. I realized i wasn't invisible anymore. The elderly couple that sat at the bench came inside. Their Labrador Retriever leash in hand. The old lady pointed at me. "That's her!" She announced. "That young lady teased us and our dog!" The old man said staring at me. "Missy please step outside with me" the officer said pulling me outside. "I'm not invisible?" I said to myself confused. "Miss why are you being so rude and disrespectful?" He asked me shaking his head. "I'm truly sorry i apologize sir, i wasn't thinking clearly" i muttered. He let me off with a warning and drove me home. Lecturing me all the way to my house. Cassandra stood in my bedroom. "I gotcha!" She laughed uncontrollably. "You did this? Why?" I asked her crying. "Because of what you said to me Gwen! Cassandra, i wish you would just disappear! Ring any bells Gwen?" Cassandra said laughing. "So i wasn't really invisible at all? You acted like i was!" "I feel so embarrassed Cassandra" i said sitting onto my bed.
