here was once a boy named Andy. He lived in a big house with
his older sister, mother, father and younger brother. Andy was
10.
His sister, Gwendolyn, who was 16, often had friends sleeping
over. And most of the time her friends used his room to sleep
in too!
One day, Gwendolyn's best friend Allison was sleeping
over. They took over his room as usual. Andy was on one side
of his bed reding a comic book, and the two girls were on the
other side gossipping. "I can't believe it! You got
a new car?" Gwen shrieked. "Yes! You want to come
with me for the first ride?" "Of course!""
Andy heard it all. "Can I come too?" he
asked. "Sure!" "Really?" he asked
hopefully. "No! But you can come for a ride once we've
used it a few times!""Really?" "No!"
"But I'll bring you for a ride next week!" "Really?"
"No!" And Allison kept making up things to
do with her car, and each time he hopefully asked "Really?"
she retorted, "No!"! "Come on, Allie!
I cant wait to ride in your car!"
So Allison and Gwen were out for half an hour, then the
next morning Allison went home.
Day after day passed. Week after week passed and Andy
was still moping about Allison's car. Until one day his birthday
came, and he got a great bike from his parents."All
right! I can't wait to try it out!"
So after the party, he went out to try out his new bike.
Allison, who lived a few houses away from his, saw him riding
around the street. "Can I see your bike?" she asked
Andy. "Sure! Hop on!" he replied. "Really?"
she asked. "No!"
