“Okay, see you later!” I told Ezra as he went into his mom’s office. Then Cora and I turned to Maya.

Cora gave Maya a little wave. Maya gave a little wave back.

“Mind if we sit down?” I asked oh-so-innocently.

“Okay,” Maya whispered. She had her hair in a long black braid down her back. I thought of how fun it would be to snip the braid off and wear it on my head. No matter how much I try, I can never grow my hair long like that. I wondered if Maya’s mom gave her special vitamins to make her hair grow long. I wanted to ask right then, but I figured first we should take care of business.

So I sat down in the empty chair next to her, and Cora sat down next to me. I hummed a little song, just to show how everything was hunky-dory. I put my lunch box on my lap. It is a supercool lunch box. The front is all blue with a poodle wearing earmuffs and ice-skating.

I slowly unzipped my lunch box … and then I shrieked.

Right there was the world’s most enormous spider. It was as big as my hand and very black with furry legs. It was sitting right on top of my cream-cheese-and-jelly sandwich.

“A spider!” I shrieked. Well, I pretended to shriek. Of course, I had known the spider was in there the whole time. I put it there myself. And it wasn’t a real spider, just a fake one from last Halloween. But it doesn’t look fake at all.

I looked over at Maya really fast to see what she would do.

She didn’t jump up. In fact, she didn’t even move a muscle. She just opened her eyes really, really, really big. And she screamed.

You know how in the cartoons when someone screams super loud, all the glass in the windows break?
