Mamba Point (2010)
“I banged on Matt’s door first, since Gambeh and Tokie were even less likely to have roller skates.
He swung the door open. “Do you want to play the game?” he asked hopefully.
“Actually, I was wondering if I could borrow some skates.”
“Skates? Like roller skates?”
“No, ice skates,” I joked. “Yeah, roller skates.”
“Wait here.” He left the door open and ran down the hall. I waited, like he asked.
“Keep ’em as long as you want,” he said, giving me the skates and swinging the door shut. I wondered i...f he was mad at me for making other friends.
“We can play the game later!” I shouted.
He opened the door again.
“What time?”
“When I get back from skating?”
“I guess.” He looked at me holding the skates. “Who’re you skating with anyway?”
“Eileen. Do you know her?”
“You’re skating with Eileen?”
“Yeah, so?”
“She’s really pretty.”
“She’s okay.” I tried to play it cool but broke out in a huge grin. She was really pretty, wasn’t she?MoreLess
