unison.
           For some reason Jessa was having a hard time concentrating on her lessons. All she could think about was summer vacation and going to high school. So far her foster family had kept their word about her doing as she pleased and not taking her back to the orphanage. I hope they continue keeping it Jessa thought. I really don’t want to miss out on high school. When the bell rang for the end of the school day it startled Jessa.
           “Hey Jessa mom said you could stay over this weekend if you want to.”
           Jessa knew that Mrs. Greyson didn’t like her. She said she was not the type of person Summer needed to be friends with.
           “How on earth did you get your mom to agree to that?” Jessa asked surprised.
            “I told her what you made on your report card and she is hoping that you can tutor me this summer when we get back. The good thing is you can stay the whole weekend and most of the time when we get back. I thought it would be good for you to stay in a real house for a change.”
           “Geese Summer say it a little louder I don’t think everyone heard you.”
           “Sorry I didn’t mean it the way it came out. Anyway she is waiting for us out front.”
           “How am I supposed to explain this bag of clothes you gave me?” Jessa asked
           “Don’t worry she’ll think it’s what you brought for the weekend.”
           “How is she going to think that when you just told me today and I obviously haven’t had enough time to go home and get clothes?”
           “Well I was supposed to have told you this yesterday. I know what you’re thinking but I didn’t forget. I knew if I told you yesterday you would have had time to think about it and you would have told me no.”
           “You’re something else you know that.” Jessa told her.
           “I know and that’s why you love me so much.”
           Both girls looked at each other and started laughing as loud as they could.

           This was the first time Jessa had saw where Summer lived. I knew she was rich Jessa thought but this house could hold four families. Jessa didn’t know what to say or think as they pulled in front of the house. She noticed Mrs. Greyson was watching her when they got out of the car.
           “Summer take Jessa upstairs and show her the guest room so she can put her things away. Dinner will be ready in twenty minutes, make sure to get washed up.” Mrs. Greyson said once they were inside.
           “Okay mom. Come on Jessa I’ll show you where you’ll be sleeping.” Summer said as she grabbed Jessa by the arm.
           Once in the guest room Jessa’s jaw dropped as she looked around.
           “What’s wrong?” Summer asked.
            “That is the biggest bed I have ever seen.”
            Summer just giggled.
           “I thought I would be sleeping in your room in a sleeping bag?”
            “Now why would you want to do that, I snore. Plus I thought it would be nice if you slept in a bed for a change and maybe have your own room. This room also has it’s own bathroom so you will have plenty of privacy.”
           Jessa was almost in tears. To think she would be sleeping in a bed and have her own bathroom for a whole weekend. “Thank you so much Summer. You truly are the best friend anyone could ever have.”
           Summer gave her a hug. “Come on we need to get ready for dinner and I’ll show you my room afterwards.”
           When they got downstairs Jessa was still in shock when she saw the dining room table. That’s the most food I’ve ever seen at one time Jessa thought.
           “Summer said you weren’t picky about what you ate. So we have an assortment to choose from.” Mrs. Greyson
