"See you soon!!" Andy smiled.
"Visit us often!" I cried. "You know where we live!" We had exchanged addresses already. We only lived three blocks apart!
The police door closed, and the window rolled down. Andy, Catie, and Sharon waved goodbye. I stood and waved back until they were only a dot in the road.
Chapter 86 - Sharon-Just Wait Until They Know!
Looking back, I thought it was foolish of me to be afraid of an alleyway when so many other scary things were lurking there waiting for me. But of course, the alleyway was the cause for all of them.
"Look Sharon and Andy!" Catie yelled, looking out the open police car window. "Remember our doorman? Remember how he was staring at us when Andy charged out the door, and I ran after him." She laughed, looking down her dirty purple pajamas and Uggs.
I smiled tiredly and yawned. This was a perfect ending. More friends, and despite the trouble, I had a good adventure.
"I can’t wait to see Mommy and Daddy!" Andy squealed excitedly. "They should be back from their program!"
"Me too!" Catie and I said in unison.
"Hey, I just realized that it is still winter break!" I gave an exuberant shout, forgetting about me being lethargic.
"Wait until our parents hear about our adventures!" Andy giggled as Catie pushed open the police car door.
Andy ran ahead into the elevator and waited for Catie and me to catch up. We all waved goodbye to Villa, but we were all surprised when she followed us.
"Just in case," she informed us.
Catie, Andy, and I chatted about how Mom and Dad would react when they saw that we were home. We had decided not to call them in advance. We all wanted to surprise them. The elevator door opened, and we all rushed to our apartment door. Villa calmly walked behind.
Catie pulled out a key from under the Welcome mat. She handed it to me, and I unlocked the door. All of us pushed the door open together. Smiling at each other for the first time in our building, my siblings and I rushed into our familiar home.
