Not that we were fighting before. But you know. The sleepover became the top priority. Mom pulled into the Doshis’ driveway Saturday night just as Darcy’s mom and Fiona’s dad were pulling out. We’d all arrived at basically the same time. Mom looked at the pile of stuff on my lap. “You have everything?” A mixture of emotions ran through me: excitement, anticipation, and even a little bit of fear. I hefted my overnight bag up over one shoulder and held the sleeping bag with my arms. “Yep! See you in the morning.” I pushed the car door with my foot. Mom called out, “Remember, if for any reason you want to come home, just give us a call.” “I would, but I don’t have a cell phone,” I said with a glint in my eye. Mom chuckled. “I’m sure the Doshis have a house phone. Nice try, though.” I was convinced that one of these tries, someday, was going to work. Maya swung open the front door as I approached the house. She waved me in. “Come on. Everyone’s in the kitchen!”
