* Ring Ring * Chimed the bell on Sonya's bike. The bike was pretty sleek, it could have easily dropped out of a garage sale, a relic from the 70's. Her front basket holding a tightly folded and bundled blanket, her back lugged a ratty brown leather backpack stuffed with clothes and other nicknacks. She cranked the peddles with expert grace as she sped down ally ways, over hills and through trees to get to the location of her most important date. Her hair wiped from the wind as she raced past a few parked cars. She wore a fairly simple black dress, the hem line going down to just above her knees, the dress fit tightly around her form until it reached Sonya's hips and then splayed out giving her legs absolute freedom to move. Around her legs were thigh high green and white striped soccer socks. On her feet, a pair of brown high top converse, the left one having only duct tape to hold it together. Her arms were covered by a long sleeved tight white undershirt that clung to her petite frame as her arms extended out to grip the handlebars of her bike, steering Sonya to her destination.<br/><br/>She zigged and zagged, around a tree, down a bend, splashed through a puddle and back onto sidewalk, a quick turn, a weave past a pedestrian, down another hill and then with well trained precision she gripped the handle breaks and brought the bike to a screeching halt. Sonya then dismounted her treasured bike and walked it up to the house, noting the already parked car. She looked into it for a moment, noting the gadgets, screens and buttons within it. "Well, well," she smiled as she noticed the dash board clock. "I am close to on time," she said with a mild giggle and a delighted grin. Admittedly she didn't know what she was on time for, a sleep over? A party? A rehearsal? All these thoughts raced through her mind as she strode up to the door. First stopping to note from a distance the other girl carrying the tablet, which made Sonya nod with mild despair "Those things will be the end of bookstores," she said with a over exaggerated shudder to herself. However she was at a distance and had to stop to chain her beloved bike to a nearby tree. Upon doing so she pulled her blanket from her bike basket and hoisted herself up straight and tall and walked over to the front door, passing the the car of the tablet wielding woman, she said to herself "The car of the future!" as she glanced at it. Then she made a sudden, almost military march like turn and went to the front door with a smile affixed. After all first impression and all, if this was a first impression. First pulling at her dress to reach into her bra to pull out a folded note that listed the address and time. She double checked, nodded and walked up confidently smiling.<br/><br/>She walked up just as the other girl entered, she raised her hand into a knocking fist, even though the door was still open. She just stood there, looking at the woman as she had her head turned looking at something in the house, or the girl with the tablet. Sonya stood there and then knocked on the door frame, "Hi!, Sonya here for the.... " she blinked still not sure what she was invited to and only vaguely remembering this girl from awhile ago before Sonya had herself graduated from High School. "... the box social." she finished her sentence hoping to say something entertaining to break the ice between the distracted girl and herself.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
