Chapter 3

After everyone left, we all began to get ready for bed. I showed Natalie the guest bedroom and helped her unpack some of her things. " What a lovely room! I wish my room back home looked like this!"

"So what is it like in London?"I asked while sitting down on the bed. "Well, it rains a lot. Doesn't have a big effect on the people. Maybe someday you can come and visit me in London."  She plopped down next to me and she gave me that smile again. "Natalie, you have such a lovely smile. You should smile more often." She began to blush. "Thank you. You're the first person to ever tell me that." I gave her a hug and said "No problem. Good night Natalie." I got up and began to walk out. "Good night, Primrose."

After I left Natalie's room and headed straight for Paige's room. I had to tell her what mom said today at the party. I quietly walked in and closed the door behind me. Even though Paige and I are close, she also hates whenever I come in her room unannounced, which I did a lot. "Hey you boog-" She began. "Mom's racist, Paige." I interrupted. "What?" She was in shock. I was too. "I heard her and dad in the kitchen arguing. She called Natalie a coon!" "Prim, there's nothing we can do about it." "What? Paige, why would you say something like that?" "Because it's true. Prim." I stormed out of her room and slammed the door behind me. If she wouldn't do anything, I would.
