New Story: Are You My Best Friend or Not?

Are you my best friend Or not?
Chapter 1
Joy Walker and Caroline Brown sat on swings at the park. “Caroline, I need to cancel our sleepover for Friday night. Reena is coming over,” Joy said.

“Why, Joy? We always have sleepovers together on Friday nights. We are best friends. Reena, well, she is one of the ‘Pop Girls’,” Caroline said.

“Well, Caroline, I invited her over so, I can’t do anything about it,” Joy said. “Plus ,” Joy thought, “I want her to come over.”




Chapter 2
Friday night Reena came over. “Joy Marie! I thought Caroline was coming over, she is you best friend,” said Mrs. Walker, Joy’s Mom.

“Well, Reena is the head of the ‘Pop Girls’ and much more popular the Caroline,” Joy replied.

“Joy Marie Walker, march to your room now. Caroline has been your friend since preschool. Reena, please leave,” Mrs. Walker said sternly.

“Mom, why can’t I have a popular girl from school over instead of Caroline?” Joy yelled.

“Joy, you are grounded. You are not to have Reena or any of the ‘Pop Girls’ over again,” Mrs. Walker replied. “Actually, you are not grounded but you will not have any friends over for a week. You can be nice to the ‘Pop Girls’ but you shouldn’t reject Caroline because she is not popular,” Mrs. Walker said.

“Fine, Mom. I will try to spend more time with Caroline,” Joy said then marched up the stairs.

Chapter 3
Caroline and Joy didn’t talk any that next week. Mrs. Walker asked Joy one day, “Joy I have not heard you calling Caroline yet this week.”

“I have not had time,” Joy explained. Really Joy had just been calling Reena.

“Okay, Joy, tell me the truth,” Mrs. Walker said.

“Mom, I’ve been calling Reena every day. I don’t know why that is a problem,” Joy replied.

“Well it is not really a problem to befriend Reena, but you have been ignoring Caroline for a week,” said Mrs. Walker.

“So,” Joy said.

“So, Caroline is spending the night with you tonight!” Mrs. Walker explained.

“Tonight? Mom I invited Reena over,” complained Joy.

“Well, better cancel, Caroline is here,” Mrs. Walker said as she went to the door.


Chapter 4
“Hi, Caroline!” Joy said.

“Hi, Joy,” Caroline said.

“May we please be friends again? I am so sorry for how I treated you. We have been friends since we were in preschool. I want to be able to be friends with other people but I want to be able to turn to you and tell you things I am going through because we are best friends,” Joy said.

“Of, course! I want the same thing! We can always have other friends as long as we stay close,” Caroline said lovingly.

“Best Friends!” Joy said.

“Forever!” Caroline said.
