The Encounter
Both, Sammy and Shelly have a crisis. Sammy's dead if he doesn't come home with his sister, Sandra. Shelly's in DEEP trouble when the guardian of the little girl comes along. OMG!!
**********Sammy's Story**********
"SANDRA!!, WHERE ARE YOU!!" Sammy yelled in frustration while running from isle to isle. When he had a sudden realization that Sandra wanted chocolate, so, he quickly located the chocolate isle, and ran full speed towards it, hitting all in his way.
*hit* "Hey, watch where your going!" said a stranger.
"Sorry!!" said Sammy then and every time he hit a person.
At one point along the way, he started to hear crying. And with that, he started to yell out Sandra's name again.
"Sandra!! I'm coming!" The closer he got to his destination, the louder the crying became. Finally, he reached the isle and saw little Sandra on the floor.
"Oh, no! What happened?" (Sammy's inner monolog)
**********Shelly's Story**********
"Little girl, what's your name? Can you stand up, if you can, please do..." said Shelly to the little girl but she doesn't seem to reply any of the questions Shelly throws at her. Her only response was endless loud crying. Despite the loud crying, Shelly continues to try and cheer her up. Her persistence came to a halt when she heard yelling of the name 'Sandra'.
"Oooo~ your in big trouble now!" Jessica pointing out the obvious.
"Jess!!" said all the rest, Siera, Alex and Shelly at the same time.
"What? well you are.."Jessica said in a lower tone of voice.
"Duhh~" said Shelly, annoyingly. Then they all looked away searching for the origin of the yelling. The voice got louder and louder by the second. Until a tall guy appears at the far end of the isle, standing there appalled to see what had happened. And there it was, seconds of silence.
**********The Whole Story**********
Sammy runs straight towards Sandra and holds her in his arms and checks to see if she was injured.
"Sandra, are you okay?" Sammy asked.
"I've been asking that question all along, you expect her to answer?" Shelly screams in her mind.
"I have a booboo... *sob*sob" Sandra replied only to her big brother.
"She did it to me, the big fat meanie!!!" continued Sandra while pointing to Shelly.
"It was an accident, I didn't mean to do it, I didn't see you back then" Shelly said in remorse.
"Excuses excuses.. meh.." said Sandra sticking her tongue out. Shelly looks sharply at Sandra.
"Where does it hurt?" asked Sammy.
"Here" replied Sandra pointing to her left arm with her right hand.
"Here, lemme kiss it, *muah* feel better?"
"Thank you Sammy..." said Sandra then hugged her brother tightly.
*rumblerumble* the sound of Sandra's tummy rumbling.
"Sammy, I'm hungry, can we go and eat?" Sandra said with a sad face.
"I'd love to, but mom only gave me money for the groceries and I'm broke" replied Sammy.
"Awh.. *more rumbling*" Sandra said with an even sadder face.
"I know what we can do, well have breakfast together, our treat." said Alex suddenly.
Sammy and Sandra looked at each other and looked back at Alex.
"It's the least we can do after what happened" continued Alex.
"Can we go?" Sandra suddenly cheerful again.
All eyes are on Sammy now. All waiting for an answer. Sammy thinks for a second then nods as a 'yes'.
"Yeay!" said Sandra.
"Great, meet us at ***** cafe in half an hour. we have stuff to buy and Im guessing so do you" said Alex looking at the list in Sammy's hand. Sammy quickly hides the list from view.
With that last action, Sammy stood up with Sandra's hand in his, and walks away. Moments later, Shelly and her friends did the same. For the whole duration of half an hour, they did not cross paths as they were at the shop for real different reasons.
~~~~~~At ***** cafe~~~~~~
"Where is he, where is he, where is he!!!" said Jessica in excitement for some reason while waiting for Sammy at ***** cafe.
Shelly just sat there at the round table thinking of what had happened and what to do next. Alex and Siera gossiping about something as usual, but normally Shelly would join, seeing what happened, not so much. Then, Sammy arrived with Sandra empty handed. They just sat down, when Jessica asked "Where's your stuff?"
"In the car, duhh.." replied Sandra.
"Pfft~" went Jessica.
"Stop it Jessica. Anyway, what do you guys wanna eat?" asked Siera, handing Sammy and Sandra the menu.
They flipped over the pages and made up their mind. The waitress came right on time.
"I'll have the 'Bacon and Eggs' please, what do you want Sandra?" said Sammy.
"I want omelette." whispered Sandra to Sammy.
"And an omelette please." continued Sammy to the waitress.
"Okay, 'Bacon and Eggs' and omelette, is that rite?
"Yes" said Sammy looking at every one at the table. Then, the waitress walks away.
"You guys not eating?"asked Sammy to the rest after realizing that they did not order.
"We ordered before you came" replied Alex.
"Great" said Sammy.
The food arrived moments later. They ate their breakfast quietly. So did Jessica for some reason. When Sammy was done, he went to the restroom. While Sandra and Siera were chatting, Alex had a great idea, and told Shelly quickly.
"Hey, you should totally ask him to the party"suggested Alex.
"Hmmm... good idea. He will so forgive me for the accident."replied Shelly, after a long silence a while ago.
"Yeah, that too" said Alex, rolling her eyes.
"Wait here. Be right back." Shelly said after seeing Sammy walk out of the rest room.
"Yeah, like I'll be going anywhere..."Alex said to herself.
"Hey, wait."Shelly said telling Sammy to stop.
"What" said Sammy stopping.
"I'm having a party at my house at 8pm tonight while my moms out. I was hoping you could come" Shelly said to Sammy with shiny eyes.
"A party eh. Never been to one. This an invitation? Count me in."Sammy replied.
"Great!" Shelly said excitedly.
They both walked back to the table. Shelly gave a thumbs up at Alex as an indication that Sammy accepted. Right as Shelly sat down, she thought "OMG!! The party! preparations!"

Two Young Souls: Chapter 2
Shelly
"Kring, kring..." the telephone rings.
"Kring, kr..." the telephone rings for the second time but was stopped when Mrs. Green answered the phone.
"Hello?" said Mrs. Green to the person on the other line.
"Hello, may I speak to Mrs. Green, please" replied the caller.
"Speaking"
"I'm Mr. Smith's assistant here calling about a meeting tonight at the office, will you be able to attend? My apologies for the sudden meeting on a Sunday. Mr. Smith said it was important."
"Uhh, okay, what time is the meeting?"
"At 8 o'clock tonight"
"Okay, I'll be attending"
"Okay," *sound of typing on a keyboard*"Thank you, miss. Have a nice day"
"You're welcome" said Mrs. Green then hangs up the phone.
Shelly who was beside her mom throughout the whole conversation was concerned and wondered who that was.
"Who was that mom?" Shelly asked.
"That was my boss's assistant calling about a meeting tonight. So, darling, I will be out tonight. Will you be okay about staying home while I'm out?" replied Shelly's mom.
"Can i have a few friends over?" asked Shelly again.
"Sure, but only a few, and no boys, understand?"
"Yeay! Thank you mom." said Shelly in excitement, but she only heard the 'sure' and did not listen to the other details.
After that, she immediately ran to her room to call up her three BFFs. This is how the conversation went:
Shelly: Alex, hi. Hey, my mom's out tonight, wanna come over.
Alex: Sure, lets call the others and make a 4-way call. CONFERENCE!
*beep, beep*
Siera: Hello? Jessica!
Jessica: Hello? Siera!
*Siera and Jessica said simultaneously*
Shelly: Hi guys.
Siera: is this a 3-way?
Alex: nope 4-way
Jessica: no way, COOLNESS!
Siera: yeah, so wassup?
Shelly: Okay, my mom's goin out tonight. Wanna come over? my mom said it was okay.
Jessica: Hmm.. I have no plans tonight, so, sure, sounds fun.
Alex: Great. How about you Siera?
Siera: So, Shelly, you're mom's out the whole night?
Shelly: yeah, I think so.
Siera: I see.
Alex: So, you coming or not?
Siera: I've got a better idea.
Jessica: WHAT, WHAT!! TELL US!!
Siera: Jess, would u just chillax?
Jessica: Sorry, go on
Siera: Okay, your mom's out for say like at least three hour rite,Shell? Why don't we have a party?
Jessica: A party.. good idea
Shelly: A PARTY! ARE YOU NUTS!?! Remember the last time? I got grounded for a month.

Jessica: Radical!!... hehe~
Siera: Great, so its set. Lets go buy party stuff at the store. Everyone be there at 8 o'clock sharp.
Alex: Fantastic, everyone okay with that?
Jessica: Wait! But that leaves me with a half hour to choose an outfit, noooo!!
Siera and Shelly: JESS!!
Jessica: What, its a major crisis.
Alex: Jess, its just going to the store. No need for fancy clothing.
Jessica: B..b..but, what if we see a hot guy there?
Alex: At eight in the morning? HAHA! you made me laugh..
Jessica: Good point. Well, see you guys there then.
Siera: See ya...
Shelly:okay, bye..
*beep*conference over...
~~~~~At the store~~~~~~
Shelly was the first to arrive. Second was Siera, then followed by Alex. They were about to question about Jessica, when she arrived in full-fledge pink.
"Wow! Waddup with you?" asked Alex sarcastically.
"Nothing fancy rite? haha..." said Jessica.
After that, they begun their quest for the 'party stuff'. On the way to their first destination, they gossiped about everything. School, boys, celebs, even their own boyfriends. Sound of laughter was really loud when they walked by. When they reached the chocolate isle, Shelly was having so much fun talking and walking backwards, when suddenly Alex, Siera and Jessica screamed to stop. But it was too late. Shelly felt something behind her, then heard a 'thump' followed by loud crying. It was a little girl. She was about to take a bar of chocolate when Shelly hit her.
"OMG!! Shell! What did you do?"said Alex in astonishment.
"We all know what happened. Shell hit her."Jessica said dumbly.
"We are well aware of that, Jess" Siera implied in an a-matter-of-fact tone.
"Jess, this is serious!" stressed Alex.
"Little girl, are you okay? can you stand up? I'm sorry. Who did you come with?" said Shelly to the little girl, trying to make things better.
"Ohh, you're in trouble." said Jessica.
"Shush!" said Shelly, shutting Jessica up.
Shelly continued to try and cheer the girl up. But it was no use. The crying kept getting louder and louder. Shelly didn't know what to do. Neither did her friends.
"Kring, kring..." the telephone rings.
"Kring, kr..." the telephone rings for the second time but was stopped when Mrs. Green answered the phone.

Two Young Souls: Chapter 1
Sammy
On one particular sunday...
“Sammy!”, his mom called upon him.
“Yes Mom!”, he answered as he rushed down the flight of stairs looking for his mom.
He thought to himself,“I’m hungry, wonder what’s for breakfast?”.
“Mom! What’s for breakfast? I’m hungry!”,
“If you want breakfast, go and make it yourself, you’re seventeen for God’s sake!” his mom answered.
Sammy mumbled to himself, “Fine..”. He entered the kitchen, searching for food as he was starving, hoping to find eggs in the fridge to make scrambled egg. His hope was shattered as the eggs had ran out.
“Mom, we’re out of eggs! Gimme some monaaaaayh! Wanna buy some eggs, jeesh I’m starving!” said Sammy to his Mom.
“Here’s the money and a list , why don’t you do shopping for me as well, we ran out of groceries.”,
“Aww man! Shoot! Fine..”, while he took a glance at the list and walked out the door. Sammy got in the car and starts it. The loud revving of the vehicle caused his sister, Sandra to rush downstairs to the porch where Sammy is.
"Sammy, where are you going?" said Sandra with her cute voice as she was only eight years old.
"Can I follow?" continued Sandra.
"I'm going to the hypermarket to buy some groceries 'your mom' wants me to buy, want to accompany me?", said Sammy.
"Could I? , MOMMY!! Can I, Can I, PWEASE GO??", screamed Sandra to her mom nearby.
"Yeah-yeah, whatever" replied mom while busy with the laundry.
"Yeay!" said Sandra as she hops in the passenger seat next to her brother, Sammy.
~~~~~~ In the car to the hypermarket~~~~~~
"Sammy, can you put chocolate on the list? I want some" said Sandra breaking the silence.
"Sandra~, what did I tell you about chocolate? There's a LOT of sugar that can cause cavities to your 'pwetty' teeth. Besides, you'll get a sugar rush." replied Sammy.
"But Sammy, did you not watch Discovery Channel? It said that chocolate is really good for you. It has anti-something, that prevents heart problems. Besides, admit it, YOU WANT CHOKIES TOO!!" said Sandra opposing Sammy's statement
"Ugh! Why did mom subscribe for that darn channel anyway..." Sammy said silently not wanting Sandra to hear.
"Okay, fine, have your chocolate, see if i care" Sammy sticks his tongue out at Sandra annoyingly.
"By the way, its 'anti-oxidants'..."said Sammy to Sandra correcting her.
"And you said you didn't give a hoogie about that sciency stuff, heheh~" gloated Sandra while looking out the window of the car.
~~~~~~ Not long after~~~~~~
They finally reached the hypermarket. Upon entering the shop, Sandra sped off in search of the thing called 'CHOCOLATE'. Sammy tried to catch hold of Sandra, but she was too fast. Before he knew it, Sandra was out of sight. Feeling responsible, he runs from here to there searching for Sandra, but, alas, she was gone...
