Chapter 12: Witness By: Rerab
Sophie glared at Megan and tried to mouth something to her. Megan couldn’t understand, so she said, “What, Sophie?” “Nothin, I’ll tell you later.”
Erin reached into her locker, and Megan said, “Hey Erin, I couldn’t call you last night, so sorry.” “Kay…”
Erin said, “it’s not a big deal, I went to bed early anyway, soo…you probably wouldn’t have gotten a hold of me.” Sophie slowly walked behind
Erin and stood in front of the locker next to her while Megan shut her locker; they all looked at each other and waited for someone to say something. “Well, you know…umm…we can give the make-up thing another try today at 4:30…are you guys gonna come?” Sophie asked with one hand on her hip. “Well, I can after my piano lessons…” Megan said. “What time does it end?” “4:00” Megan answered. “Okay,
Erin? How about you?” “Sure, I guess that’ll work.” She said, looking down. “Bzzzzzzzzzz!” “There’s the bell!” Megan said rushing toward the classroom door. The girls wandered into the classroom and took their seats. “Okay, class,” Mrs. Deany said, tapping her pen on her desk, “let’s begin class today with a pop-quiz!” The students moaned as she passed a stack of papers around the kids. “There are twenty questions, as soon as you are finished, bring your paper up to me,” she said sternly, “If you don’t finish within ten minutes, you…FAIL!!!” All of the kids’ hearts started pounding. “Begin!” she snarled. After the quiz, the class went on, and after a seemingly long 30 minutes passed, the class was over, finally over. After two more class periods, the girls met up. “
Erin, what made you change your mind about the make-up thing?” Megan asked. “I knew how important to me it is to have you guys as friends, and when I imagined myself without my two best friends in the world, I realized that I’d do anything to keep you guys as friends, and besides, it did sound pretty fun!”
Erin said. Megan and Sophie hugged
Erin and they went to lunch. “Yoo hoo! Sophie! Over here!” Jenny yelled. “Oh, can Megan and…” “Of course they can get their make-up done at my house! I ALREADY told you!” “That’s not what I’m asking…” Sophie said. “Oh, then, what WERE you talking about?” “I was asking if maybe they could sit with us.” “Fine, I guess…” “Come over here, you guys!” Sophie yelled. The girls sat down, and began praying for their meals. “What are you doing? Talking to yourselves??” Jenny asked. “Umm…we’re PRAYING!” “What?!?” “Umm, Sophie, won’t you explain?”
Erin said. “Ummmm…Erin, Megan, let’s talk over here!” Sophie said taking them away from the table to talk privately. “This is a PERFECT time to witness!!” Megan said excitedly. “Yeah! We can teach her about the Lord and maybe she’ll be nicer!”
Erin exclaimed.
