Chapter Seven

The morning came and Mina was actually ready for school… she didn't know why, but she was just in a really good mood and the only person who could change that mood is her goofy older sister, Lucy.
Mina grabbed her backpack and started to go outside, waiting for the bus, and as she was waiting, she was looking at the Count's castle and she began to thought, 'Maybe I should go over to his castle… maybe we can try to get the party started!' because Mina really wanted to have a party.
She thought and thought about it… and even when she was in the bus… she couldn't stop thinking.
Then one problem crashed into her mind: Igor.
When she accidentally bumped into him, he just threw her out and locked the doors!
First of all, what did Mina even do? She wasn't putting anyone into harm, sure she might've had the Count to come over and play some games or she'll go over there… and he also came to the school… but, seriously what was Mina doing wrong?
When she was at school, she just focused on school, though in the back of her mind those questions wouldn't leave her alone.
Yet, Mina managed to let those questions hold their horses until the end of school; she had made her decision.
Mina knew she had to stay at home and let the Count come over… because if she bumped into Igor again, it's outside and alone again.
Therefore, when Mina got home, she just sat on her beanie and kept thinking of what had happened.
Then, one memory made her stop thinking…
When they both fixed her dolly, that was the best day ever, and not only that, Mina even made the Count proud by bringing a dead frog back to life!
Now that's a memory worth to remember!
Mina just smiled and just pushed those thoughts out of her mind and that's a lot of thinking for a seven year old!
Therefore, she just got up, grabbed some paper and pencil and started to draw. Mina just sat there on her beanie drawing some random pictures.
When finally, Mina heard that same knock on the window, luckily, she left the window opened just a little bit, so the Count could turn into smoke and enter that way.
Mina just continued to draw and then the Count was right next to her, just like he was on that day when Nick was bullying her.
"Vhat do you have there…?"
Mina smiled. "It's some drawings of us." Mina couldn't help smiling, whenever the Count was around, she knew she didn't have to be sad anymore.
The Count laughed. "Yes, it is."
Mina remembered that they haven't played Checkers in quite some time, so Mina jumped up and started to look for the Checkers box.
"Vhat are you looking for?"
"… Checkers… we haven't played that in a while." Then, Mina finally found the Checkers box and when she did, she went to the little table and started to set up the pieces.
"What color would you like to be?" Mina had all the pieces set up, but she was still standing, waiting for the Count's answer.
"Hmmm…" The Count began to ponder. The black pieces were on the right side of the table and the red pieces were on the left side of the table.
"Black." and both Mina and the Count took their seats and began to play Checkers… and so far the Count was winning.
Mina didn't really care now the only thing that counted was that she was having fun with her best friend.
