Chapter 1: The crack in the wall
I was walking home with my friend, Enfīru, after school like usual when we came across a weird looking crack in the wall. It was no ordinary opening to say the least; it was wide enough for a pot bellied wharf and tall enough to fit a child or small teenager if they were to crawl through.
"I don't remember this being here" said Enfīru.
"Hmph!" I said discarding all and any precautions to the wind and going to look at our new discovery.
"Do ya think I'd fit!?" I joked gesturing to the small door like opening, so small one would say a gnome could have lived there.
"Ha! No way honey!" He put his hand on his hip. "The day you fit through there is the day my closet is empty!" He laughed shifting his weight and putting his other hand on his other hip. I frowned at his gestures and sighed.
"I really think your closest should be empty..." I moaned.
"It will, It will!" He groaned back at me. "I will come out when I'm ready, these things take time."
I signed once more, but this time you could hear the impatience in my voice. "You said that two months ago and yet here you are!"
He moaned at me. "Whatever, I still don't think you're gonna be able to get through there!" He said trying to change the subject.
I shrugged it off and continued. "I can so!" I walked up to him and gave him a simple look that said "you know I'm right, I am the smallest girl in our year..." He smirked "you wanna bet the RBB!?" He chuckled. Enfīru and I have been friends since we were kids so we practically are conjoined at the brain.
The RBB was a small little red base box with a beautiful sleek gold lining on it; bordering the letters H.J in caps. The box of which, I made a contribution of 1 pound per month of my allowance. Originally mine, the RBB was, however, over time Enfīu, to began to make his own contusion to the small box Weeks later after receiving it. Between our selfs we gambled over some of the most irrelevant things using the RBB our prize, with Enfīru being the current holder, of the sort of trophy we had turned my family heirloom into. We agreed to continue this until year 11 which was still half a year away.
"Sure! Just know when I win the RBB will be in my position!" And with that we shock hands and huddled a little around the small opening to another world.
"Here I go! "I bent down on all fours and crawled into the small door-like hole. It was a bit of this quash and squeeze but I did it! The RBB was mine!
"Awe dang it!" He huffed in his adorble camp accent, kicking the grass were he stood.
"Haha! I did it! I win, I win!" After doing a little victory dance I noticed a little light in the corner of my eye coming form behind me, glistening in my peripheral vision.
"What is it, Kasuto?" Asked Enfīru, as he was always able to reading my emotions like a book.
