Chapter four.
What happened was over. Alice sat on the edge of the bed and took the phone from the bedside table. The time was 13:36 on the screen.
- Oh, even nothing to do! - The heroine sighed, throwing her phone right into her pillow.
As soon as the thrown object touched the point of its fall, he immediately squealed, as if felt the pain. Alice was reluctant to reach back for the phone.
"And who decided to text me? - She asked herself. The text was short but quite understandable: "Didn't you forget your girlfriend's birthday?
"Dear birthday girl, your birthday is not today, but tomorrow. So don't remind me of it every ten minutes! - Alice, irritated, wrote back.
Yes, tomorrow was Sveta's birthday, Alice's best friend. The girl reminded almost everyone she met of her birthday as if it were the most famous day in the world. But all for the sake of gifts! The more presents, the more pleasant. And the more people remember their birthdays, the more presents they get, and it means that it's much more pleasant. In general, Alice was pleased with one thing - she hasn't prepared a gift yet, so you can take your extra time to buy it!
This time Alice decided to wear short jeans and a green T-shirt. Pretty simple, well, what can I do? The image was decorated with a small purse in the form of a cute dog over the shoulder. Now you can go for a gift!
Alice did not pay attention to the weather, to what was happening on the street, and immediately began to look through the head, what to buy for her friend. Sveta loved to collect dolls "Barbie".
"Even for my girlfriend's sake, I wouldn't go to the shop with toys to buy these monsters! - Alice decided. From birth, the girl hated dolls, especially Barbie. Nobody knew why, but everyone had their own tastes. Alice saw in the dolls only wasted time. Why put her to bed? Why feed her? This is not a real child!
So, dolls are the most extreme case, if nothing else comes to mind. Sveta also loved sweets. And also loved to play computer games!
"Some computer game and a box of candy is the best option! - Alice was delighted to be on her way to the nearest computer games store.
Luckily, the shop was close by. All you had to do was walk through the park, cross the street, and you were there! Alice got to it in just a quarter of an hour on a given route.
The store was full of different games, which caused the eyes to run away. And different arcades, and children's games, and games of cards, and everything for every taste! But most of all the game about the girl-detective Nancy Drew was striking. Alice took her pocket money out of the bag and bought the game.
- I hope Sveta loves something like that," Alice muttered under her nose.
Now it's just a matter of buying candy. Passing through the park, the girl plunged into her thoughts. If she dies of boredom at the weekend, what will she do on vacation? She didn't like to read books, and now all the camps are paid, and Mom is not going to pay for them... Perhaps it would be better if the school did not end? Yes, it's an absurd idea, but still, there are lessons and homework assignments. As a result, the whole life is a total boredom, where there is nothing to do, or there is something to do, but the occupation is too boring, otherwise, you won't say.
Alice's thoughts were ripped off by someone else's familiar voice. The voice, it seems, was a stranger, but somewhere the girl heard it. It clearly belonged to a teenager, so ringing and jerky. But I didn't have to look for the owner of the voice - she was almost there.
Alice could not believe it. The teenager was no one else, like the same cat girl! The same curly golden hair, the same pink T-shirt! And next to her was a girl. A light gray sundress was thrown on her. Straight blonde hair. Her face was so pale that Alice involuntarily thought it was a ghost. The girl walked uncertainly, stumbling time and time again. And the bright blue eyes, which were the only thing that attracted the girl, looked not childishly dreary. Compared to this little man, the blonde was quite bright. At least the emerald eyes glowed with a mischievous flame.
- Hey, wait! - Alice ran up to them, looking at the blonde. - So it wasn't a dream! I remember you! You saved me from that truck!
The blonde girl hid behind the cat girl's back, clinging her hands firmly to her pink T-shirt.
- Don't be so afraid," the blonde smiled, and then somehow she looked fiercely at Alice, addressing her. - You should have gone your way, and we should have gone ours!
- Well, no! - Alice was stubborn. - I want to know what happened! How could you turn into a cat and back? It's unrealistic!
