“I’ll go and get it.” I tell Ginger. She nods and continues to play the game.
As far as I know, mom and dad won’t come home this early. It’s 3 in the afternoon, they always come home at around 5:30 to 6, so who could it be? As I walk towards the door, I peek through the peephole to see who it was. To my surprise it was Dalon. What does her he want? I open the door.

Today is Saturday, the day of the party. Flo invited me to come and honestly it’s my first time going to a party without my parents. Apparently Dalon is also coming with me because he is also invited, and he is afraid that I might do something stupid considering how clumsy I am. It’s 4pm and i have two more hours left to get ready for the party.I called Ginger to come to my place so she can help me choose what to wear but she had to go somewhere with her parents. What do I do now? I don’t have any fashion sense! Being a girl is so hard compared to boys,they can just wear jeans a
I combed my hair and left my hair fall to my shoulders. Since i didn’t know how to put make up on properly i just went with one of mom’s lip glosses. I finally started walking on heels properly and i knew how to stop and keep my balance thankfully. I leave the house making sure i locked the front door and wait for Dalon since he was my ride there and home.Once he came out saying bye to his mom, he looked at me. I felt his gaze on me going from bottom to top. Feeling uncomfortable and I break the awkward silence by saying “How do i look?”
“So how was the party?” Ginger asks me excitingly as I put my books in my locker. I grin showing all my teeth.Last night was amazing, I finally got the guy’s number whose name was Brian. He was quite nice and no, I did not try any lame pick up lines on him. Once was enough thank you very much. I showed Dalon his number and he was impressed. The DJ finally came after an hour and I liked his songs, he even complimented my song choices. So I was happy the end of the day.
Friday came faster than I expected. I had invited Ginger to my place for a video game battle after school. She was okay with it. I guess i just wanted to see her face when Chris comes home. Its going to be fun! I’m cruel I know. I bet she’s excited too.James has been talking to me the whole week and we became pretty good friends now. Dalon was aware of this and told it’s going like how he planned it. But one thing that bothered me really badly was that whatever he was saying never showed through his eyes. He had a smile but it looked almost as if it was forced and i couldn&rsquo
Ginger left an hour after Chris came home. We both watched an action movie and ate snacks from the fridge. At about 5, mom and dad came home.When mom saw Chris her face immediately brightened up. She hugged him and kissed his face so many times i lost count.“Mom stop! Im getting all of your lipstick on my face!” Chris whines.
I got up at about 9:30 in the morning and took a shower. After the shower, i dressed into my usual wear. I took my phone downstairs and sat with everyone on the dining table. Surprisingly everyone was there before i was. Usually its Chris whose always late.I put my phone on table and started having my breakfast. My phone started to vibrate, making me raise my eyebrows. Who is messaging me now? I look around and see everyone staring at me and then my phone.
“So let me get this straight you want me to help you look good before your date.” Pointing his index fingers in the air emphasising the word date.“Yes.”“What’s there to do, I mean we’ve already done what we have to do. What more do you want to make you look good.” He says confusingly.
When I told my mom that I had a date tonight, the reaction I expected from her was quite unexpected. She actually screamed and hugged me, squeezing me to death.“Finally, you know how long I had to wait for you to say it!” grinning at me. She started to walk to and fro,”do you even have a dress!?” she shook my shoulders.I was about to say something when i got cut off by her. &
