Chapter 5


When we were close to our hotel , we heard screams of people and could very well guess that something has happened but this situation helped us slowly to enter our hotel without even giving a hint to someone that we were not present. As we get inside we found out what was the trouble all about. It was nothing but only cockroaches which had been found out from Molly's suitcase. Oh wait .! .Do you know who is Molly ? Molly Sprang - a girl from our school, thinks of herself very intelligent but mind you she is a utter nonsense and a complete idiot. Somehow the teachers could able to cool her and wash her clothes and dried them with dryer and her room was swept by the swiper of the hotel. The manager of the hotel got to heard a lot of insulting statements but he was sorry for what had happened. After this incident it was a very hot topic among all the students. As we went to our room Emma came to our room and said what all had happened and I think with extra rumors added on to the story giving it a smart conclusion that Molly is a rascal, which I already knew very well. So luckily we didn't miss our dinner as I was extremely hungry so we went to the lobby and had our dinner. while we were having our dinner I saw a shadow of a girl with a knife in her hand and as soon as I turned to see who was there I found no one. I thought that it was only my imagination and I need rest, so after 20 minutes we all went to our rooms , changed and drifted off to sleep .


*************************************
Today is our way back to our homes and bidding all the pleasant memories and the memories of the excursion a very good bye.
As we reached school , we bid all our friends a good bye and then slowly , slowly we all went to our houses. As I reached my house, I could smell my favorite dark chocolate cake which might be my mom making it. As soon as I ring the bell , the door opened with a shout of "welcome back, Isabel" in chorus. I saw that my house was very well decorated with steamers and balloons and I think this all hard work done was for my return from excursion after a month. Thank you was my only reply to my dear family. As I entered my house, my mom took me to the dining table and mind you guys I was correct with my guess of the dark chocolate cake because it was kept on the table and for my dear family, I had to cut it. After cutting the cake I went to my room and changed into a sweatshirt and PJ"s and went to bed and started opening my luggage. I took out all the gifts which I wanted to give to my family members and went down to the living room . I gave a sunglass to my mom and a makeup kit and I gave a watch to my dad. My mom and dad was very happy to get such a lovely gift from me. I think in such happiness my mom and dad thought of not bringing my illness matter again. When my brother came down from his room he was looking very excited to get his gift??!!?? I simply said that I haven't brought a gift for him and as soon as he heard what I said he started sobbing . Neither my mom nor my dad could sooth hi down. So at last I gave him his gift and said him to stop sobbing. He was a great fan of Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series but he had only read the first book that is Lighting Thief that to he had borrowed it from his friend so I thought of gifting him the first 5 books that is the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and he was so happy to get it. He even didn't bother to thank me and went up to his room and started reading the first book again . I was happy that my brother was happy. Then again I went to my room and thought of taking a nap , so slowly I drifted off to sleep.

*************************************

Suddenly I woke up and heard knocks."Izzy!!Izzy!?!""Are you okay, baby? open the door baby ,please!!" I ran out to open my door and found out mom and dad were in a party wear outfit but was also worried about me. "Are you okay, sweetheart?? we were very worried because you were not opening the door.!!." Sorry mom and dad , actually I was taking a nap and even I didn't recognize that when I had drifted off to sleep. "It's okay baby , we understand that you were tired and thus you felt asleep. Oh the reason for which your dad and I wanted you to know was that we have a party today so we might be late, so don't worry about us, okay??" Ya sure mom and both of you can take your sweet time and then come. "Please take care of yourself and John who is thinking of finishing all the books today only." Ya mom and dad and please take care of yourself too.
Now what to do ? I don't even want to sleep so I thought of going to the park near our house to catch some fresh air and before leaving I informed John that I was leaving and mom and dad will also be late and after hearing all from me he just nod his head even didn't turn his head to wave me a good bye and didn't even say to come back early. So even I didn't care and headed out of my house to go to the park near my house.
