Walk With Me- Passage # 2


February 17, 2005


Riiing! Riiiiiing! Ugh!


Why is she calling me?! April knows this is my day to sleep in.

I’m not answering the phone.


Riiiiiing! Riiiiiiiiiiiiiing!

Tracie: What April?!

Timidity and anxiety linger on the line.

April: Tracie?

Tracie: What?!

April: In warped April speed: I’m sorry to wake you up, but you know it’s really important that’s why I called you back.

Tracie: Sigh. What?

April: Well the other day I called the radio station trying to win the new 50 Cent cd.

Tracie: Sitting up in the bed

April: Well, they called and said that I won the cd and they would enter me in another drawing or something. I really wasn’t paying attention cause I just wanted to be sure that they had my correct information so I could get the cd.

Tracie: Yeah?

April: Well, this morning my phone rang and I started not to answer it cause you know I thought somebody was just playing on my phone

Tracie:
She knows I do not like suspense!

April: Well....


TRACIE I WON!!!!

Tracie: What?!

April: In super-duper warped April speed: I WON TICKETS TO 50 CENT’S ALBUM RELEASE PARTY! I KNOW THIS IS SHORT NOTICE BUT I KNEW THAT YOU WOULD DROP EVERYTHING TO COME WITH ME!

Tracie: Jumping from deep under the covers, straight to the floor. What?! Are you serious? Wait, wait, wait. Slow down. Are you serious?!

April: Yes! I don’t have all the details yet, but you have to get here
(Philadelphia)

Tracie: What about school? Do I have to come now? What airport should I fly into? I’m on the computer now…..

Fast Forward~

1 accident, 2 airports, 3 hours in the car, 4 hours of sleep, 5 minutes too late, 6 hours on the train, 7th floor of the hotel

I can’t believe this is happening…

April, we have to get dressed.

So glad you took that Walk With Me!
