reminded Misty with an impish smile.
Misty looked trapped.
"We can both sleep in my bed," I said. "It's big
enough, if that's all right with you."
"Yes," she said quickly, seizing the suggestion.
"Of course it's big enough and it'll be more fun. We'll
test out your new bedding and hang your curtains,
too."
Jade and Star looked at each other and laughed. "Well, we'll both feel better," Misty added,
nodding. "Tomorrow, we should do something with
your half sister's room, like rip it apart and start over
again. We'll get every trace of her out of there just the
way my mother got every trace of my father out of our
house after they separated. And we'll paint it, too, a
color she hated."
"That's just about everything but white,:' I said. "All right," Jade said, growing serious. "Do
what you want, you two. I've called for the limousine
to pick up Star and me and take us home tonight. It'll
be here any minute. In the morning we'll meet here
and start thinking about planning our first party and
stuff," she said.
"Don't forget, Cat, you're coming to my house
for dinner tomorrow night and you're staying with
me," Star told me. "We don't have to worry about
ghosts there," she said, teasing Misty.
"There's no ghost here. Stop it," Misty moaned.
Star and Jade laughed.
When the limousine arrived, Misty and I
watched them leave. Misty looked like she wished she
was leaving with them.
