"Mama where are you?"
"I'm in the living room sweety", my mom shouts back with her weak voice.
"Hey mama! How are you?", I ask sitting down next to her holding her hand.
"I'm okay, but can you please make me a coffee?"
"Of course", I take the coffee from the table where my mama has pointed to and start boiling water, "but mama who were those guys? Did you know them?"
"They're really nice the bring me my coffee."
"Your coffee why? I can buy you some at store you know.."
"I know but they showed me this coffee and since I can't tasted as much as before it's nice because I can taste the bitterness in this one."
I look at her and she sends me a soft warm smile.
"I love you mama but I don't trust those guys.", I say handing her her coffee, "by the way I officially graduated highschool!"
"I'm sooo proud of you sweetheart!", she hugs me tight, "You gotta believe in yourself."
"Thanks mama but tonight is a party at Nicolas' can I leave you by yourself?", I try not to sound too worried about her.
"Yes. You deserve some young people time.", she kisses my cheek and I get upstairs to my floor and get ready.
I really wanna drink tonight so I decided to walk over to Nicolas place and it's still warm in september so its gonna be okay to walk home after as well. I'm wearing my favorite black party dress my black heels and I straightened my blonde hair low-key feeling myself.
"Goodbye mama, I'll be home in the morning!", I kiss her goodbye.
"Enjoy yourself honey, I love you!"
"I love you, too!"
I put my AirPods in and get myself hyped for the party. It's a fifteen minutes walk over to Nicolas house so it's not too bad. I try to vibe but I feel like being watched it's giving me chills.
I look around. Nobody's here.
*At the party*
"Vic!!!", Lisa yells over the loud music, "You're here!"
"I am!", I smile at her, "Let's get drunk!"
We started doing shots and beer until we start to feel tipsy.
We dance on the table to every song, singing like there are no worries in this work.
"Lisa? Vic? Do you guys wanna play truth or dare?", Lucas approaches us.
"Yeah!" we scream in union.
"Okay grab yourself something to drink and come into the bedroom."
"Alright bet", Lisa says and pulls me into the kitchen. She pulls out two cups right when we get there: "So what do you wanna drink?". "Mhmm.. Tequila sunrise?", I strug my shoulders.
She smirks at me and starts mixing my cocktail. She hands it to me and it looks amazing!
"Oh damn we're out of orange juice, wait for me I'll just grab some from the basement!", she says and walks away.
I just dance by myself waiting for her to come back when somebody bumps into me.
I turn around: "Not you again."
