Digging up the past

Chomi noticed the slight guilt on Nick’s face. “Nii-iek, wiga ipo thag paganana?”

“I won’t be able to take you around town, Chomi. My stupid ‘boss’ ordered me to the studio, so I have to go.” Seeing the cluelessness on her face, he continued. “You know, you better come with me. I can’t exactly leave you alone out here all day. We better get you dressed…”

Arriving at the studio, Chomi kept tugging at the buttons her shirt. Nick was insistent that she put on something a bit more decent to the studio, so she wore ripped jeans that reached just below her knees and a plaid shirt. Chomi was clearly uncomfortable wearing this, wishing she could at least open up the buttons.

As Chomi was staring her eyes out at the studio, Rebecca stormed towards the two. “Finally! What took you so long, idiot? And who’s this slut? Finally found someone **** enough to date you?”

Biting his tongue, Nick answered. “This is Chomi, she’s my cousin from abroad. She doesn’t speak our language, so I couldn’t leave her home alone.”

Rebecca groaned. “For as long as she isn’t trouble, it’s fine. Understand?”

Connecting the dots, Chomi recognized the Rebecca’s voice. She heard it earlier from the strange rock Nick held against his ear.

"Stew-Pad Bish!" She said excitedly.

“Come again, you-“ Rebecca’s eyes spelled **** and was about to throw down, when Nick intervened.

“She didn’t mean it! She just heard it somewhere! Why don’t you tell me what the scoop is?”

Making an indignant noise, Rebecca said. “Yesterday, in the afternoon they demolished some old building. But the explosion unearthed some ancient two-thousand year old tomb. But the weirdest part is that the casket was closed when they found it, but it was opened up when the archeologists returned.”

“That is strange.” Said Nick.

“That it is. Now gather your stuff and meet me in the van in five, or you will be in a tomb!” Said Rebecca as she walked off.

“You got it.” Said Nick with fake enthusiasm. “Now that was my ‘boss’, Cho-“

But as Nick turned around, he saw that Chomi had run off.

“Crap!”
