*One week later*

Ever since New Years eve, the tension between me and my mother was unbearable. We've never fought like this before and the guilt building up inside me was overwhelming.

"Well. Yes you may but be home before dinner!"

"Thank you mother!" I exclaimed, however meeting Sara, was obviously a lie.
