Today Roman came and knocked for me. He said the school he goes to had a inset day and was closed for the day. I had to plead with Aunt Maud to let me off lessons, not an easy mission as she is a hard task master!
Eventually Aunt Maud gave in (I think she got bored listening to me go on and on and on). "What are we going to do today then"?, I asked Roman. "Well I thought we could hang about in the park, maybe go for a walk in the woods", he replied. I was just about to tell him his little outing wasn't really appealing to me, when suddenly Thorn appeared. I didn't bother to ask if his school also had an inset day as its quite obvious to most people that Thorn doesn't particularly like school and barely goes!
Thorn had overheard Roman's exciting plans for us and he didn't seem that thrilled either! "Its way too cold to hang around outside", Thorn said to us. "Why don't we go to the shopping mall instead"?, "Its warm in there at least". I said it was a good idea as I still had presents to get for people for xmas.
So it was settled, we were going to the mall for the day. I have been saving my pocket money for ages so had plenty of money with me.
On the way we knocked for Savannah, I know she goes to the same school as Roman so thought she might like to come with us. We rang the bell and waited, and waited. I could hear something or someone inside but nobody came to the door. We stood away from the door and looked up at the huge front windows. The curtains were drawn, which I thought was a bit weird during the day. And I could have sworn I saw a curtain in an upstairs window move! We took the hint and left but I couldn't resist one last look over my shoulder, as I looked I am sure I saw Savannah looking out of the window sadly at us.
Nothing else really happened after that, I spent lots of money but managed to get everything I wanted. At one point Thorn hid in a corridor because he thought he saw one of his teachers!!
Only problem now is where to hide all the lovely presents I have bought.
