Crystal made her way downstairs where she saw both her sisters waiting. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAYSdOe6RNmo
“We haven’t gotten phone cases yet but we thought you guys sure all have your own phones” Marie said while presenting the girls with three iPhone boxes. 283Please respect copyright.PENANA07aUDqy8S5
The girls looked very confused. Noella opened her box and revealed a phone, this only made the look of confusion grow stronger. 283Please respect copyright.PENANALbsrwWcNU8
“ Is something wrong? Do you not like it?” Marie asked worried she bought the wrong thing.283Please respect copyright.PENANA7TGrjkS0Z6
“No I’m sure it’s great but we just don’t know what it is” Answered Charlotte. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAYaU5pL6Pbx
Marie laughed. She wasn’t being mean, she was mostly laughing at herself. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAwXT69M7Hkp
“I am so sorry, I guess I forgot that we were essentially born yesterday. These are phones, most people have them. You can make calls and texts on them.”283Please respect copyright.PENANAGiRjkoupKR
“What are texts” questioned Noella. 283Please respect copyright.PENANARK4UE6zJZ9
“It's Another form of digital communication, tomorrow morning I’ll have Matthew help you set them up and explain all of it” Marie voiced in a motherly tone. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAicvOwdxblI
283Please respect copyright.PENANAYbaMQLpHwy
The next morning……283Please respect copyright.PENANAwVSNrM7seh
Matthew was headed downstairs for breakfast when he was stopped by Noella. 283Please respect copyright.PENANA9qEMKp2gPC
“Matthew I need to asked you a few things”283Please respect copyright.PENANAwZL4yM72Me
“About the phone?”283Please respect copyright.PENANAyRlg90iJDz
“Yeah but also something else, can we go some where private”283Please respect copyright.PENANA0uVSFImOzo
“Umm sure, we can go to my room.” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAwTj3XM9Dg6
They both headed to his room and sat on his bed.283Please respect copyright.PENANAKxitGVTTP0
“Ben said you could explain dating to me.” 283Please respect copyright.PENANApkDF2uQRMq
Matthew paused. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAuNl3yyz4EI
“Typically it’s a guy and girl, but dating is like when a guy and girl like each other romantically and go on dates, like going out to eat, going ice skating, or going to the movies with each other. Dating also usually means you’re exclusive, meaning you don’t hold that title or go on romantic dates with other people. People usually date for an extended period of time before they get married. And before you ask, marriage is basically all that stuff plus you live together.” 283Please respect copyright.PENANA8Qs5Tblk6Q
“Can me and Ben date?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAbLTiB1lfWY
“Um I feel like you should be having this conversation with him.” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAfUn14dXETd
“ Where can I find him?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANA8V0PFomX6R
“ If you’re that anxious to talk to him I can see if he’s free.” 283Please respect copyright.PENANASlnltGr7BL
Noella just gave him a big smile in return. Pulled out his to give Ben a call knowing he probably wouldn’t be busy. Ben was average looking. He was pale and stocky with a baby face. Neither Ben nor Matthew had much experience with girls. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAM1z3PDcsu4
“Are you free right now?”283Please respect copyright.PENANAdHCnBcAxnt
“Yeah, why?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANA567MydK1OL
“Do you wanna come over and help Noella set up her phone?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANA8Rf7wapPMs
“Wait, did she asks for me? Like specifically me?”283Please respect copyright.PENANAF1Ww1hkaUM
“Are you gonna come or not?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAdf0jDXi2sS
“Yes! Tell her I will be there” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAyc1R3hj5if
Matthew hung up and put his phone back in his pocket. Noella was intently waiting in his doorframe. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAqwmHUQMfom
“I think he’s on his way” Matthew relayed the message back to her. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAf5g1tVINbX
“YES!!” Noella shouted at the top of her lungs. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAu91wb5w61Y
283Please respect copyright.PENANAkK40D6S6en
Within a few minutes Ben was ringing the doorbell. Noella had been anxiously waiting for him and rushed to open the door as soon she heard him. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAUrBhYEOx4d
“Hello Ben!” She greeted him with a huge smile. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAlF4TX3o6T7
“Hello Noella, Matthew said you needed help with phone, I’m pretty tech-y so I am ha….” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAFR8728bQct
He was interrupted. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAc5lZYM4b6V
“ I don’t want to talk about the phone.” She talked rapidly. 283Please respect copyright.PENANABjeJRaJpsR
“Oh?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANA6JS5D3NLvx
“Matthew explained dating to me like you said and I think me and you should date!” She said while grinning. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAtQsCbvScCO
“Are you sure?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANA7NrZN4qZOb
“Yes I’m absolutely positively 100% sure!” 283Please respect copyright.PENANA0hL0C2vItd
“ Do you want to go catch a movie with me this Saturday?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANArvS6VVI20x
“YES I WOULD LOVE TO!!” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAqPI6cI9sfE
Ben liked her and thought she was cute but hadn’t really ever gone on a real date before. He wasn’t use to girls having crushes on him. 283Please respect copyright.PENANACTLnbKrZVb
283Please respect copyright.PENANAcyyAV3KsGH
While that was happening Luke was watching a basketball in the living room when Charlotte walked in. She was confused as to what was happening on the TV. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAJUd40mgEM1
“What’s that?” she asked Luke while pointing to the TV. 283Please respect copyright.PENANA5MDpC2MfZw
“Oh it’s basketball”283Please respect copyright.PENANA1nreKb7mDc
“Can anyone play basketball?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAzXr7evCkmC
“Yeah, anyone can play, most people don’t end up on TV but all you really need is a hoop and a ball” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAiMZrMMrdHy
“ Can I play?” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAXjExE7SIJF
He hesitated to answer her.283Please respect copyright.PENANAKArAbM2ttW
“Yeah I think that would be a good idea. It might actually be good to see if your mutations cause you to be more or less athletically inclined then the average person.” 283Please respect copyright.PENANAgs2a6gmbvl
283Please respect copyright.PENANA9mLqUcaWBq
Also while that was happening….. 283Please respect copyright.PENANASxgunS8Ge9
Crystal sat in her room obviously being the most introverted out of the bunch. She was doodling in a notebook that she found in her room. Marie and Luke gave all the girls one but Crystal was the only one to use it. Marie was upstairs when she saw Crystal’s door ajar. She peeked inside to see Crystal so focused on her drawing that she didn’t even notice Marie. Marie continued to step closer towards her daughter until she could see what she was drawing. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAXFiMsZjUsT
“ oh my goodness this is really good” Marie finally made Crystal aware of her presents. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAmhKrA62Qss
“Oh I didn’t see you” she mumbled. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAxF6gU5foeB
“These are great. When did you have the time to learn how to draw so good.” Marie continued to praise her daughter.
“ These are beautiful! Maybe we could sign you up for some art classes, I mean if you want to.” Marie said in response. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAVK0wRuBulk
“ Yeah that actually sounds nice.” Crystal smiled.283Please respect copyright.PENANA08IEnXX1MT
This was the first time Marie had seen her smile. 283Please respect copyright.PENANAxmG0okx3wF
