One day Rachel was in the park with her friend 

Zack. " Zack," Rachel said. "Who's faster, you 

or me?" Zack looked at her. "Are you saying 

what I think you're saying?" Zack asked. 

"Yep," she replied. They both looked at each 

other. " Race on Friday!" they both yelled.

When Zack walked home, he thought to him 

self, huh, I wonder if I'll win that race, I mean 

she is pretty fast. Once he got home, he told his 

mom all about the race. Zack's mom called Rachel's 

mom and they talked about the big race on Friday. 

They agreed it would be fun for the kids and fun to 

watch. So it was settled, the race will go on.

Some how the whole class was talking about 

the race on Friday. Some wanted Zack to win, 

but some wanted Rachel. Even the teacher was 

talking about it. That made Zack and Rachel 

even more exited.

When Rachel got home she ran into her older 

sister Rebecca. "Hey," she said. "Sorry I gotta 

miss your race, but hey, Riley will be there." 

Rachel shrugged her shoulders and ran 

upstairs.

 On Thursday, school got canceled because of 

teacher meetings. Rachel sat on her stairs 

thinking about the race. She thought, Well I 

am pretty fast, but what if I win the race and 

Zack gets mad at me. Rachel thought and 

thought.

Meanwhile, Zack was at the candy store. He 

thought, Well, I am pretty fast, but if I win will

Rachel be mad. He thought and thought till he 

had to leave. 

That night, Zack told Rachel to meet him at 

the park. "What," Rachel said. "I've been 

thinking, and I don't want to do the race," 

Zack said nervously. Rachel jumped with 

surprise, "What!, Why!" Zack took a deep 

breath, "I don't want to do it because if I win 

you'll get mad." Rachel's face got really red, 

"Do you think I'm some kind of wimp?" Rachel 

asked Zack. "No I don't," Zack replied. "Then 

that race is happening." Rachel said and 

stormed off.

On Friday morning, school was canceled again, 

so Rachel had time to think. Rachel was 

worried, about Zack. She thought, Does he 

think I'm a wimp, maybe he does. Oh Boy, she 

called her friend Abigail and said go to the 

park.
