“I can’t decide!” Carter told his mom.
“You have to decide.” Mom said. “I think you should go to Tyler’s party. He invited you first and you told him that you were going to come. Besides, it will be at the lake! You love to swim.”
“I know. But, Josh is having a go-kart party (卡丁车派对)! We are all meeting at his house and then going to the go-kart track! That would be amazing!”
“Carter, I told you what I think you should do. But you’re old enough to start making decisions on your own.”
Four days later, Carter was leaving the house for Josh’s party. He never did tell Josh or Tyler that he would not be attending their party. He meant to tell Tyler, but he felt so bad about it. Tyler was his best friend. They met in second grade and have been best friends ever since. But go-karts! How could he possibly turn down the chance to drive go-kart around a racetrack
As Carter rode his bike toward Josh’s house, he could feel the sun on his back. It was already a warm morning. A perfect day to be at the lake, he thought with a little regret. But there would be other days to swim at the lake. Today was go-kart day! He smiled and pedaled harder. He was a little early, so he expected to see a few parents dropping off their sons. As he rode up Josh’s driveway, he was surprised to see there were no cars parked in the driveway. He laid his bike down in the grass, walked to the door, and rang the doorbell.
The door opened. It was Josh’s teenage sister, Kayla.
“What do you want ” she asked.
“I’m here for the party. Josh’s birthday party.”
“No one’s here. They already left.”
“But it was supposed to start at ten! It’s not ten yet!” Carter said, throwing his hands out, palms up, in confusion.
“Dude! It started at nine. They left like an hour ago.” Kayla said as she swung the door shut.
