So we Continued our party but I couldn't help but feel a tad uncomfortable when they started gossiping. I don't know how it went from Katy Perry to Marcie but in a matter of minutes they were laughing about her and saying that she was so weird and awkward. And you know what, I got really tensed up when they said that they had found out that she was a christian.
"My dad's turning her in!" Brittany said with this excited look on her face.
"By the way, how much money do you get when you turn somebody in?" Angela asked.
"Like 3000 dollars but it depends on their age and health." Brittany answered.
"Well, it's a good thing that they're getting rid of all those christians. They've got the stupidest rules." Olivia had to be part of every conversation, even if she had NO idea what was going on.
"Well, what have christians done to us?" I couldn't believe that these words had came out of my mouth. What was I thinking? Next they're going to question me, then they'll turn me in and then I'll be gone forever!!!. Okay, you know what? Maybe I'm overreacting, right? I mean, they're my friends, they wouldn't turn me in, would they? I started panicking on the inside and I never panic, never.
"I dunno, but they're so weird and all about rules and stuff," the one thing I love about Emma is that she never knows what she's talking about.
Janett backed up Emma," Well, they're always saying that the rest of us will go to hell and that they're perfect and it's just plain annoying!"
"Well you know what, that's all stupid. That's not what christianity is about!!" Now of course I didn't say that, but I would've liked to. I never would've doubted my friends. What happened to me? I know, I became a christian but what did that have to do with my reputation? I had to change. I know we aren't supposed to conform to the world but my reputation is at stake so God will have to be his patient self and wait a while. Instead, I said "Why don't we all get our Jammies on. If christianity is so stupid then why are we talking about it?"
"Point!" Angela said.
Olivia reached into her handbag and started brushing her hair. "What are you all waiting for? Cathy said it already! Let's get our Jams on."
And when Olivia tells you to do something, you do it!
