Victoria Hope Talean (Part 5)

Later that day, after lunch, they met the TeKape girls at Kmart.
"Where's Margrett, Rachel?" asked Mom in the parking lot.
"She told me after Victoria called that she already told her friend that she was going over to her house this afternoon, so she didn't come." said Mrs. Rachel.
"Oh, well tell her we missed her today when you get home for me, will you?" asked Mom.
"Sure." said Mrs. Rachel. "Let's go inside and do some serious shopping."
Mrs.  Rachel tried to look tough.
Mom burst out laughing at the sight. Then Torie, Kayla, Jackie, and Tracy did too.
Finally, once Kayla could contain her laughter she said,
"Come on guys, it's getting hot out here."
They all started to walk to the entrance. They parted into groups of twos.
Tracy and Jackie, Torie and Kayla, and Mom and Mrs. Rachel.
Once they were inside, Mom and Mrs. Rachel went to grab carts as the other girls watched.
"What are you getting?" asked Kayla suddenly.
"I need pajamas, shorts, and tank tops for this summer. What about you?" replied Torie.
"T-shirts, shorts, and shoes. You know, I'm a tom-boy, but I still love shopping." said Kayla.
"I can tell." said Torie, giving Kayla a look.
"What?" asked Kayla spotting Torie giving her the look.
"Nothing." said Torie grinning.
"What?" asked Kayla clueless and grinning too.
Torie didn't answer and pretended to ignore her. She look at the two adults making their way to the girls' section. Torie started to follow.
Then, out of the corner of her eye she saw Tracy pick something up of the shelf she was standing by.
"This is pretty." commented Tracy as she studied the object.
That's when Torie saw it. The object was slipping out of Tracy TeKape's fingers!
"NOOOOO!!!!!" shouted Victoria as many people looked at her strangely.
But it was too late. Glass shattered everywhere.
Tracy let out a ear-piercing scream, collapsing on the ground. Jackie was right behind her, and screamed too but was still standing.
Mom and Mrs. Rachel both turned around, but that was a mistake. What they saw was a breath-taker.
"TRACY!" Mrs. Rachel shrieked.
At that moment Torie let out a quick prayer.
God, prayed Victoria. Please let Tracy not be hurt badly.
But it didn't look as if that was possible.

Victoria Hope Talean (Part 4)

"Torie!Come and do the dishes!"shouted Mom from the kitchen.
"Hold on!"Torie shouted back. She ran through the hallway into the kitchen to load the dishes into the dishwasher.
"Torie, I was wondering if you would like to come shopping with me and Jackie today?"asked Mom.
"It depends. Are we going grocery shopping or clothes shopping? And are we shopping for Jackie's stuff?"
"We are going clothes shopping for both of you." answered Mom.
"Okay, sure. I'll go. Can we invite Kayla along? And her sister for Jackie?" asked Torie as she started to load the dishes into the dishwasher.
"Sure. Can we invite Mrs. TeKape along for me?" joked Mom as she cleared the table.
"Yep. Can I call when I'm done?"
"Sure. You may as well invite Makayla's other sister along."
"Okay. So ask for Kayla, Mrs. TeKape, Tracy, and Margrett. Got it."stated Victoria more to herself than to Mom.
"I'm going to go tell Jacqueline about our little spree, while you call and make sure they can come."said Mom finishing the table.
"Okay. What are the boys going to do while we're gone?"asked Torie. 
"They're going fishing." replied Mom.
"Oh."said Torie closing the dishwasher and making her way to the phone.
She dialed Makayla's phone number from heart and heard someone pick up on the other end.
"Hello?"
"Hi, this is Torie."
"Oh hi, Victoria. Do you want to speak to Kayla?"asked Mr. Bob TeKape.
"Yes, sir. That would be great." replied Torie.
"Okay, hold on while I get her."said Bob TeKape."Makayla! Your friend is on the phone!"
A few moments later there was a voice saying,"Hello?"
"Hi," said Torie."My Mom and I was wondering if you, your mom, and your sisters would like to come on our shopping spree with us this afternoon?"
"Hold on a sec." Makayla stopped talking.
"Hello?" came Kayla's voice a couple seconds later.
"Hi."
"Hi. My mom said sure. Where do you want us to meet and what time?"asked Kayla.
"Um... How 'bout one o'clock? Do you want to meet us at Kmart?"suggested Torie.
"Sure! See you at one in the Kmart parking lot. Oh! My mom wants to know if we are having lunch too?"asked Kayla.
"Um... I don't think so. My mom's outside so I can't ask her. I'm just going to say no."said Torie.
"Okay, thanks for inviting us. See you later. Bye!" said Kayla.
"Bye, Makayla! See you soon."
Torie hung up.

Victoria Hope Talean (Part 3)

"Torie, breakfast!" shouted Jackie, Torie's nine year old sister, from the kitchen.
"Coming!" shouted Torie as she quickly got dressed. 
Today she was wearing a pink t-shirt that said,"Mt.Evans" on the front and a pair of white capris. Torie rushed down the hallway, hoping that what they were having was not scrambled eggs. It was.
Torie groaned. They had scrambled eggs every other day. It was getting old.
"Torie, what do you say to your mother for making this food?" asked Dad (a.k.a. Jeremiah Dakota Talean).
"Thank you, Mom." said Victoria making a funny face.
"You're welcome." said Mom (a.k.a. Judy-May Eve Talean). "Let's pray now that everyone is here."
"Can I pray, Dad?" asked Zach, Torie's eight year old brother
 "I already asked." stated Justin the 'clever' thirteen year old.
"Ahhh...." groaned Zachery.
"You can pray for lunch."said Mom peacefully.
 Justin prayed,"Dear Lord,
I want to thank you for the food and my mom who made it. I ask you to help all of the missionaries that are teaching about you in all of the different countries and that you keep them safe. Please help Aunt Christy battle cancer and that she'll live though it and praise you for it. Please bless this food to our use.
In Jesus' name I pray,   Amen."
They all started to eat.
"Mom? What's for breakfast tomorrow?" asked Jacqueline.
"French toast or cereal." replied Mom.
Oh, thank God! Not eggs.
"Yummy!" shouted Zach.
"Quiet down, son."said Dad.
"Okay."obeyed Zach.
"What kind of cereal?" asked Jackie.
"The cereal you eat." answered Torie.
"What kind of cereal you eat?"
"The good kind."said Justin.
"What good kind of cereal you eat?"
"The kind that's good for you."said Dad.
"What good kind of cereal you eat that is good for you?"asked Jackie smiling. It was a joke that Dad made up when Jackie was born and Torie asked those same questions.
"Rice Crispies!"said Mom giving up.
Everyone laughed.
"Guess you aren 't as good as we are, Judy-May."teased Dad with a grin.
"I guess not."said Mom. 
She slipped Dad a quick kiss.
"Break it up, break it up!" said Justin in his coach voice.
Everyone giggled.
I love this family,God,thought Torie,thank you for choosing me to be in it...
