"I brought donuts...they soak up the alcohol" Ginny looked at me then back down at the donuts in my hand.

She sighed and threw her head back on the pillow "My head hurts"

"yeah that tends to happen when you get drunk" I sat down on the bed

"You don't have to do this you know" I looks at her

I grabbed a donut and started to eat it "I kind of have to" She gave me a questionable look "you're like family... and I take care of my family"

I handed her a donut, she accepted it "You're to kind"

I shook my head "trust me, I'm not"

"I'm so embarrassed...I'm never gonna drink again" Ginny says while eating her donut

"Everyone always says that and they don't...you know the first time I ever got drunk was at a party, I deeply regret it and it was so cringey now that I think about but anyways, we were all playing spin the bottle and it landed on Brax and everyone knew how much I didn't like him so they were all like you have to take 4 shots  if you don't kiss him...so I drank it but I couldn't take the last one and as I was drinking it...it came up and I spit it out all over Brax's face"

Ginny looked at me "you're lying"

I try not to laugh "I wish I was kidding, even ask Becks, she has all the videos"

She just started laughing and eventually I joined the laughter

"So what happened with your mom?" Becks asked me, we were currently in my room trying to write our  poem for English

I tapped the top of my binder with my pencil "I apologized, but I'm still grounded" I simply stated

After a while and a long time of trying to write, I got annoyed and crumbled up my paper throwing it across the room

"Calm girl, calm" Becks told me

I just groan "I suck at writing! I can't come up with a single good sentence"

"Its gonna come to you, eventually...you just need some inspiration"

I roll my eyes at her and chuck a pillow at her. She catches it and laughs "Ohh its so on"

"Mija come down, there's someone here that would like to see you" I heard my dads thick accent from downstairs.

"Coming" I walked downstairs and head to the living room. As I entered, My dad and some guy were laughing. I didn't see his face because his body was turned the other way

My dad saw me and smiled "Mija this is...Zion"

The guy stands up and turns around. A smile creeps up on his face "Rosalia?"

I nod

He comes up to me and hugs me, I just stare at my dad with wide eyes, not hugging him back. I read my dads lips 'you're fine'

He pulls away and says "I haven't seen you since you were this small" I does a height thing with his hands.

I swear every person that sees you for the first time in forever always says something like that

"Yep that's what happens when you grow up" I simply state with a little tone of sarcasm. I look around noticing my moms not in the room "Where ma?"
