It was the place every girl and boy longed to go. Everything in Adjerbaj was perfect,” a female voice started, telling a story to several young kids. “Ah, that’s bologna,” a different voice interrupted her. “Adjerbaj had some issues.” “E, I’m telling a story here!” “Sorry, continue.” “As I was saying, Adjerbaj was perfect.

Alexis groaned as the phone rang. Talking to someone was the last thing she felt like doing. However, she picked it up nonetheless and checked the caller I.D.: Stella, one of her friends from school. “Hello?” she asked. “Hey Alexis!” Stella said from the phone. “What do you need?” “Oh, I’m hosting a party at my place this weekend and wanted to know if you could come.” Alexis panicked. No, she did not want to go. In fact, that was probably the last thing she wanted to do this weekend. “What time?” “Oh, probably like eight Saturday night into ...
