Debbie – Short Story of High-School Friends

Today is the American National Day. I’m Debbie and just moved to Virginia because I just got a new job.
I have begun the new job and I’ve got friends and they are so very cool. Today a girl asked me out. I wasn’t going out with a anyone. I told her. “Look, I just don’t want to.” “If I would have been odd, would you have dated me then?” “Right now, yes.” “I have a odd twin sister so you have a date Friday night at the game.” I didn’t respond and she just walked off then. My heart melted, I had a date, for the first time.
The girls are Sissy and Betty. It’s truly been great, incredible actually. Sissy got odd fast in the beginning but it got vey magical between us, but it’s alright. She’s cool and I’m not so she’s more cool I suppose. Often she has been on her way out to parties, and I and Betty always joined. It has been great fun.
I have been stalking them, beneath the wallpaper in my house is large pictures of them. I been paid to check on them, I’m a private investigator. I’m not, I just know them from the dating and the parties and when we hang out and there is no pictures, I was like only joking.
Outside Betty’s windows the roof is pretty flat, on it is just flat black shingle roofing, rectangular pieces. We spend a lot of time there when it was dark outside.
I went to the movies with Sissy. She was staring at the movie. She wasn’t really odd, the movie was remarkable. They filmed everything the last summer, she told me she was on a vacation and I suppose it was a nice.
