Booktok Bag Novels & Stories

Emily just could not believe that there was nothing to be done about her uncle’s lying and stealing. Quickly putting the money back in the sock she put that pair in the bottom of her bookbag. Emily grabbed a few more pairs of socks, a few pairs of leggings, underwear, a bra, two t-shirts, a sweater, and a light jacket and rolled them up tightly to stuff in the bottom of her bookbag. She grabbed the small first aid kit from her bathroom, an extra toothbrush, hair brush, a shampoo bar, a conditioner bar, soap, mascara, concealer, and chapstick to throw into the bookbag as well.
