Mine and Zhou's Absence

[Aster]

<sub>Ok, I think you have all realized that Zhou has been gone for some time now. Well the reason for that is because he got bad grades on his progress report and he's predicting bad grades on his report card too. Anyways because of those bad grades he got his computer, video games, and cell phone taken away. so, yeah.

Now, for my up coming absence. In about a week or so, I will hardly be on for quite some time. And the reason for this is because my mom is going to get a loan for a house up on a high hill just in case of flooding from hurricanes. Well, my dad, and maybe a couple of his friends, and I are going to demolish this house. Then, we're going to build a new house in its place. We're all predicting this to take about 1 1/2 - 3 years to finish. Yeah, that's a long time! We're not hiring any constructors or anything like that, its just going to be about 7 men working on a big 2 story house. There might not even be 7 men. It might just be my dad and I working on it.... So, um... I have a lot of work ahead of me.....</sub>

[Ransu]

Wow..

[Aster]

_{.... um, ok! but my dad and I might actually skip work and school to work on this the whole day sometimes.}

[Kynella]

Well, it sounds fun, and yet, we'll miss ya when your gone!

But still, will you be on time to time?

[konoka]

Alright. You don't seem happy about this at all. I'm here if you need me, just don't move away or anything. Wait. What's that mean about your party? And does that mean your weekends will always be tied up now?

[Aster]

_{Yes I'll try to get on time to time, but that'll only be when Im home for the 2 hours that my dad isnt, after school. I'm not 100% sure if we're doing all this. But there's an 80% chance that we are, cuz we've all discussed everything.
Um, yes! my weekends will be all tied up as well. Zhou, Ricky, Abram, and Shawn said they'll help as much as they can if they have the time, but they're all weak except Ricky! Well, anyways, this means I wont have the Halloween party because I wont be there.}

[konoka]

A-alright.. I guess nothing can change it, but do you want this to happen? Do you want to build a new house?

[Raku]

It sounds fun! Lots of bonding time and such. I'm sure it'll teach you a lot! *hands him a pack of band-aids and a muffin* For the many cuts and such from splinters!

[Aster]

Yes I want to build this house, itd be nice! but it keeps me away from my friends, and im going to miss yall. especially Raku! yeah, Im gonna miss her the most.

[Aster]

ok, remember how I said my dad's job was going A-67(going under contract)? well, yeah, my dad's worried about his job and theres a big possibility that we could move within the next year. So, wont most likely wont be getting that house!

[konoka]

What so now you're going to be moving away? Back out of the U.S. or what?

[Aster]

um....... I dunno. It all depends. but im staying here somehow! I'm not leaving, I dont care what my parents say....

[Aster]

Yeah, I know. And I dont want to leave! I've moved around enough... and my dad's trying to get another job here but there's no telling on what could happen.
