Mark hurries home from school. It is Friday and he has all weekend to complete his
homework. That means he can go online and just have fun tonight. For him, having fun
online means e-mailing Katie, his old friend.

each other. But that was before Katie moved far away. Now, the only way Mark gets to
talk and catch up with her is by e-mail.
