Cocoa has a Sleepover
"Number?" Cocoa asked. "555-624-8842" I answered. Cocoa tapped a few times on her phone and then tapped a few more times. Then I heard a smooth whoosh and some beeping. The phone rang.
"Me and Lily are having a sleepover. Come for lunch." Cocoa hung up.
"I told her. Want to make cookies?" she asked. I was dying to see her recipe. "Sure." I said. She pulled out some ingredients from the kitchen and returned. "First, you do this." Cocoa instructed, cracking an egg. I copied her.
After the cookies were in the oven, Cocoa rushed into a room covered with posters and slid under the bed. I dropped to my knees and peered under. She was gone! I kept watching.
A few seconds later, I gave up and looked around the apartment. I felt a tap on my shoulder and jumped. Cocoa was right behind me with a smile on her face. "I know my way around this apartment." she said.
Cocoa asked me if I wanted to play chess, and I accepted. She beat me in 6 minutes. A timer dinged and Cocoa ran into the kitchen. "Cookies!" she shouted. I followed her. She was taking the cookies out of the oven and placing them on a plate.
"Want to watch a movie?" Cocoa asked. I nodded. Cocoa ran into a large room with a couch, a TV, and a huge stack of comics. She pulled open a drawer and tossed out a sock, a 'Mermaid Fairy Hamster' comic book ("Ooh, I like this issue!"), a barrel of 'Dungeons & Dragons' miniatures, and a fuzzy dice before selecting a movie.
'The Haunting of the Viking Opera.' "It's actually not that scary unless you are afraid of ghost pirates." Cocoa told me. I grabbed a red pillow and leaned against it. Cocoa pressed play and we sat back to watch it.
