Ellray Jakes is a Rock Star! (2011)
Ellray Jakes is a Rock Star!
“I go up to Cynthia right after lunch. She is in the cafeteria, like everyone else on this rainy day, and she is gathering up her very neat trash while Heather waits for her. “I gotta talk to you,” I tell Cynthia.
Cynthia looks up, and she looks suspicious. “About what?” she asks.
“About that crystal I gave you yesterday,” I tell her. “The tourmaline. I need it back.”
Cynthia laughs. “No way, EllRay!” she says.
She looks pretty serious when she tells me this, and Cynthia Harbison is not exactly ...known for changing her mind about things.
“Yeah,” her loyal friend Heather says, glaring at me. “No way. That rock matches her eyes.”
“How come you need it back, anyway?” Cynthia asks.
“Because—because I want to give you something even better that matches your eyes,” I say, making up a fake reason on the spot.
Now, Cynthia looks like she is doing a mental math problem. “Something even better?” she asks, acting a little greedy, if you ask me.
“Like what KIND of thing?”MoreLess
