Okay. First off, sorry I haven't posted in a few days. First, my laptop died then after I got to recharge I was still too upset to write. Now... I need to get it over with. I have to write about what happened to Kailie, even if it still upsets me to say it. Okay, so I better explain. A few days ago, (I've lost track of what day it is) Kailie and I were sitting in the truck, playing Apples to Apples since Kailie had packed it. Even with two people, it was still fun. After a while, we got tired and lay down in our boxes, talking to each other. The hole in our boxes was big enough so that it carried our voices.
"McKenna," Kailie whispered to me above the hum and growl of the truck. "Will you still be my friend, even after we're seperated?"
"Of course!" I said automatically. "Kailie, time has passed so much quicker with you! You're so much fun, and you're helping me get over missing my friends!"
Kailie was quiet for a few minutes before she replied. I was a little curious. Usually, she's so bouncy and full of energy.
"Y'know, McKenna, you're my first friend," she said quietly.
"Really?" I asked, surprised.
"Ya. Everyone at the store said I was stupid and that I was annoying." Kailie said quietly.
"Well, I don't think you're annoying!" I said happily. "You're a great person Kailie!"
Just then, the truck screeched to a halt. Gasping, we pulled on our bands and the box covers and smiled. The back of the truck opened, and my box was lifted out. The box was put into a room. I waited for Kailie's box to come in, but it didn't. Then I heard the truck driving away. My eyes filled with tears as I realized how alone I was. I would've started crying, except for that a woman came in the room.
"Wow, this box is damaged," she said, looking at the hole Kailie had made. "Better repackage it!"
Thankfully, I had hid my laptop under my back. The woman opened the box, pulled me out, as well as some boxes, and put me in another, clean, fresh one.
Where's my suitcase? I thought. Suddenly, the box shut with a thud. I heard tape being put on it and then it was put on a conveyor belt where I was dropped into a pile of boxes. Eventually,I was loaded on another truck and that's where I am now. I cried for a long time when I got in here. I mean, I knew I'd be seperated from Kailie at some point, but I never even got to say goodbye! I emailed her right away.
Dear Kailie,
I'm so sorry we got seperated! I really wish we were still together. I miss you a lot. Write back soon! Love, McKenna R. Brooks
The only good thing is that Toulane wrote back to my email.
Dear McKenna,
I miss you too. Gymnastics just isn't as much fun without you here beside me. Coach Isabelle misses you too, even though she won't admit it. We're working on front flips right now! BTW when you learn stuff in school you must tell me what you learn ok?
Love,
Toulane
Oh yeah I forgot to mention! All the AG dolls are taught how to read, but no more. Other than adding and subtracting. So when I go to my new home my sisters are gonna teach me stuff and I'm gonna go to school! WAHOO!
