Crystal made her way downstairs where she saw both her sisters waiting. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAEr2dk6LvVS
“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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAeGBVxUSNbr
The girls looked very confused. Noella opened her box and revealed a phone, this only made the look of confusion grow stronger. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAcZiJMJr7hW
“ Is something wrong? Do you not like it?” Marie asked worried she bought the wrong thing.226Please respect copyright.PENANAMrm2Hqg5Qh
“No I’m sure it’s great but we just don’t know what it is” Answered Charlotte. 226Please respect copyright.PENANA5FKx0Xmce5
Marie laughed. She wasn’t being mean, she was mostly laughing at herself. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAmhxZgtXxn7
“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.”226Please respect copyright.PENANAndPuG2XyIv
“What are texts” questioned Noella. 226Please respect copyright.PENANADuQ036w9Eg
“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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANA5EKAq4Lzdm
226Please respect copyright.PENANASAsiJ146rn
The next morning……226Please respect copyright.PENANA5mhrg0lMCp
Matthew was headed downstairs for breakfast when he was stopped by Noella. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAeTgAF083wG
“Matthew I need to asked you a few things”226Please respect copyright.PENANAPMpeapZBiu
“About the phone?”226Please respect copyright.PENANAoB2epm82z1
“Yeah but also something else, can we go some where private”226Please respect copyright.PENANAibtNUJ0r9U
“Umm sure, we can go to my room.” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAnnVV1LDxen
They both headed to his room and sat on his bed.226Please respect copyright.PENANA9G2WITJsN2
“Ben said you could explain dating to me.” 226Please respect copyright.PENANALtbNqI4IS0
Matthew paused. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAa8DVF9ZHkY
“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.” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAMStMkTp6V6
“Can me and Ben date?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANADM4TZDiTzN
“Um I feel like you should be having this conversation with him.” 226Please respect copyright.PENANArII5z7bbxQ
“ Where can I find him?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAlnfrvUIvmx
“ If you’re that anxious to talk to him I can see if he’s free.” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAfMtGtg51cY
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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAXocukR6OdT
“Are you free right now?”226Please respect copyright.PENANAuUWSGzQL8u
“Yeah, why?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAuc75hbZyUj
“Do you wanna come over and help Noella set up her phone?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANASk7MnnOjgb
“Wait, did she asks for me? Like specifically me?”226Please respect copyright.PENANA1JUgo6cbHS
“Are you gonna come or not?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAPe8NjJas5V
“Yes! Tell her I will be there” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAW7M9Se57ci
Matthew hung up and put his phone back in his pocket. Noella was intently waiting in his doorframe. 226Please respect copyright.PENANA7F9snxCwy4
“I think he’s on his way” Matthew relayed the message back to her. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAb47RwJHFWs
“YES!!” Noella shouted at the top of her lungs. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAtdNG16HVSR
226Please respect copyright.PENANAsL4UYsQdS9
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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANA1OMGOqw9gy
“Hello Ben!” She greeted him with a huge smile. 226Please respect copyright.PENANArsSfo7S4VZ
“Hello Noella, Matthew said you needed help with phone, I’m pretty tech-y so I am ha….” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAiGVO8EiGHZ
He was interrupted. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAPed9P1efvz
“ I don’t want to talk about the phone.” She talked rapidly. 226Please respect copyright.PENANABUNC6j4e4m
“Oh?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANA1oHzjTmRcX
“Matthew explained dating to me like you said and I think me and you should date!” She said while grinning. 226Please respect copyright.PENANA4DFUoEu8Mc
“Are you sure?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAySUAAh9fc3
“Yes I’m absolutely positively 100% sure!” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAajQ3snn8VQ
“ Do you want to go catch a movie with me this Saturday?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAEVzdkNQhzp
“YES I WOULD LOVE TO!!” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAWsLwD30hWv
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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANACzt0yW00LZ
226Please respect copyright.PENANAjLsfYvUv3B
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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAMPvjAmVpDF
“What’s that?” she asked Luke while pointing to the TV. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAaTyT96BUyr
“Oh it’s basketball”226Please respect copyright.PENANAvXCeLr3oEi
“Can anyone play basketball?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAwcUOgE6y81
“Yeah, anyone can play, most people don’t end up on TV but all you really need is a hoop and a ball” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAYXpTs58djo
“ Can I play?” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAmG3qLs97uy
He hesitated to answer her.226Please respect copyright.PENANA3svFDNjVpk
“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.” 226Please respect copyright.PENANAY8Fb2ntLPz
226Please respect copyright.PENANAsTHjemqpUD
Also while that was happening….. 226Please respect copyright.PENANATAfl8S4YIA
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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAt0jju4gTX2
“ oh my goodness this is really good” Marie finally made Crystal aware of her presents. 226Please respect copyright.PENANA1KiRz9VSrb
“Oh I didn’t see you” she mumbled. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAZYOJzG1fhD
“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. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAAi30W39OxK
“ Yeah that actually sounds nice.” Crystal smiled.226Please respect copyright.PENANAg0O9qVoSNG
This was the first time Marie had seen her smile. 226Please respect copyright.PENANAewppGN0viB
