The Secret Society Of The Pink Crystal Ball (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
When I arrive home from school today I’m surprised for a second to see it there, sitting on my desk. I glance at my watch. Lindsay and Samantha are going to be here any minute. Normally, I would wait for them and make them open it with me, but there’s just something about the way Roni said those words—it was very important to Kate that you not open it until you’re alone—that makes me think I should do as she said. Moving quickly, I slit the packing tape open with my house key. I don’t know what I’m expecting, exactly. Pictures? Letters? Some sort of explanation? My stomach flutters nervously and I hold my breath as I pull open the top flaps and look inside. It’s… It’s a pink, plastic ball. Well, technically, it’s a Pink Crystal Ball; just the type of retro-kitsch toy that never ceased to amuse my Aunt Kiki. You ask it a question and shake it, and then a silly, new age-y answer floats up to the surface. It’s supposed to tell the future like a crystal ball, except, you know, it’s plastic.
