Ebony Evans: Adventure of a Lifetime Chap. 15

Nico

How could she tell. That's all I was thinking of while Ebony and I walked to the Big House. ''How could she tell I was lying? No a single person can tell if I'm lying, how could she? '' They walked past some campers playing volleyball near the Big House.

"I use to play volleyball," Ebony said after a long period of silence.

"Really?" Nico looked at Ebony. She didn't really looked like a volleyball player, it didn't even look like she was weird any make up at all.

"Yeah, then I realized that I would start to fit in," she smiled, like she had made some sort of joke. "The truth is that whenever I got mad at the team, well, the ball didn't always land on the ground."

"Wow."

"I sort of got kicked out too."

I held in a laugh. Ebony didn't look like she cause that much damage to a game a volleyball. After a bit of more walking, we made it to the Big House. Ebony stood there for a moment.

"W-what is this place?" her voiced sounded panicky for a moment.

"The Big House."

"Cool." If she had been spooked, she now hid it.

"Do you want to go sit on the porch?"

"Huh?"

"There's some chairs, and stuff on the porch. We could sit there."

"Oh."

As we walked up the steps, Ebony kept looking around like something was going to attack them.

"You okay?"

"Fine," she said quickly. "Let's sit down," she took the seat closest to the steps.
