There Goes His Minnesota Girl, chapter 11
That night I rang Mike up on my moblie. I had to know something. It could depend on my future, our friendship. He picked up the phone.
"Do you even want to do this anumore?" I asked him.
"What do you meen?" He snapped.
"Sweet children. You don't seem that bothered anymore." The line went silent. I could here Mike'sbreathing down the phone.
"Of course I do!" Mike snapped suddenly." Its just youve grown up now." He said.
"What do you meen grown up?" I asked.
"I dunno. I guess youve left school. Got a kid. A girlfriend who you love. It just seems like youve moved on from sweet children." He said carming down a bit.
"Mike I think we have all moved on. Especially from Sweet children." I said.
"So thats t. No more band!" Mike asked sounding unhopeful.
"No more Sweet children. We should be called Green day!" I said.
"What?" Mike said.
"The band name Sweet children sounds like we are some losers playing in a old dudes home. Green day is more original." I said.
"Ha Billie you havent changed at all." He laughed.
I just saved my friend ship, band and myself from depression. I heard a faint crying. Joey. I walked in to the next room and picked him up.
"Whats up there iddle dude!" I said in a babys voice. I gave him his bottle and started clicking y tongue. Joey started giggling from behind his bottle.
"What you laughing at!" I laughed patting his back, burping him.
Adie popped from round the door.
"I just got a phone call." She said. She sat next to me and Joey.
"Who from?" I asked.
"Erm... Reprise or something. They said they wanted to sign you up but I said I you werent interested since you and Mike arent seeing eye to eye."
I looked at her in amazment. I coudnt believe she had done that.
"I'm kidding there ringing you back on thursday." She giggled.
The best fucking day of my life. Not to mention our amazing new drummer Tre.
I think this could make things better. Mom won't have to work in rods shitty pit.
And move away from this dump. Am I getting my hopes up?
Adie put her arms round me and little Joey. I started thinking of what could be in the future!
I started thinking of some lyrics in my head.
A whole new start for Sweet children. Or should I say Green day.
I named the song in my head.
Welcome to paradise.
