This morning I could barely stand to get out of bed. I didn't touch my breakfast, and I almost put my shoes on the wrong feet. When it was time to leave I hugged Keith and kissed Bobby on the head(he was still asleep). I met up with Justin at the bottom of the pasture, and he said their was gonna be a dance next Wednesday. I knew next Wednesday was also Justin's birthday. He asked me who I was gonna go with, but I honestly didn't know yet. I wanted to go with Jacob, but I don't know yet. When we got to school I asked Jacob who he was going to the dance with. It broke my heart, but he said he was going with Katy. By the end of the day, me and Justin planned to go to the dance together as friends, or at least I thought as friends. When I got home I told Keith about the dance and surprisingly he said I could go, but when I told him I needed
a new dress I got a totally different response. He asked me why I needed a new dress when I have a ton of dresses, and I only have two. I haven't gotten a new dress in almost two years. I knew exactly what dress I wanted it had a pink flower design an the top was like a t shirt, and the bottom went to below my knees, so I knew he would think it was mature dress. He asked "how much?". I said "like ten bucks". He said "OK we will go look at it tomorrow after school, just me and you." I said "Okay, me and Keith watched the Brady Bunch with Bobby until about ten o'clock. Then we went to bed. The next morning I woke up anxious for school, because the sooner I got there the sooner I could leave. I ate all my chicken and biscuits and eggs. Then I left. On my way to school I met up with Justin. He told me he was excited for the dance. Then I told him same and all about my dress, but I could tell he wasn't interested. The only thing that kept me from going off on him is thinking what boy would be...
Well, school is over, and it is time to get my new dress. Justin and I are running home as quick as possible. When we got home me and Justin said our goodbyes. When I walked up to the door Keith already had Jockey and Oreo saddled up. Jockey is Keith's big
Red stallion. Oreo is my black and white stallion. When I saw mom come in with Sugar(her white stallion) I was so happy. "Lets go get that dress", Keith said. Keith helped me up on Oreo. I am short and Oreo's tall. Then Keith got onto Jockey and we rode into town. When we got to Ben Miller's store, Keith helped me off of Oreo, and we went in. "The dress, it's gone", I said. Ben said, "That little lady right over there has it". Little, my aching ass. That women was as big around as she was tall. Miranda Miller(Ben's wife) already altered the dress. Well it used to be my size,... but now it is for the tall, fat, and ugly. No offense, but she ain't much of a looker either. Before I knew it, Ben went over, and started talking to that women. The one thing I didn't know about that women was that she is Jacob's mother. How could something like her give birth to something like him? I feel bad for being mean, but Jacob's mom stole my dress! After I had my little episode Miranda came up to me, and told me to go to the back of the store with her. She let Keith know, so we went. Then when we got back there, I saw the exact same dress, except it was blue(my favorite color)! It was beautiful, I liked it much more than the pink one. Then Miranda said, "I made this just for you, I hope you like it." "You made this,... it's... it's beautiful. Thank you so much!", I said. "You know your welcome", Mrs. Miller told me, "On Wednesday after school, your coming here and I'll help you get ready". "ok!", I said as I bursts with excitement. Then Keith said it was time to go, so he paid Ben and we rode back home. Believe it or not, when Keith and I walked in Mom was cooking. And tonight wasn't our regular chicken and biscuits. Tonight we are having cheese burgers, and French fries, and for desert Oreos. When Keith asked her where she got them, she said "The Brewer Family brought them and they are coming over for dinner tonight". The Brewer Family is Jacob's family...
