I rode down the streets of Los Angeles California. The worn out penny board going fast down the sidewalk and curving around people. May I say very pissed people. Yells from behind me were very angry ones and I laughed continuing my daily skate boarding routine. Yes, I did this daily for specific reasons. Like maintaining my tan, because if I didn't do this everyday I would probably be inside all day 24/7 on my computer being a loser. Trust me that wouldn't be pretty.
My life in LA was a very common one compared to almost every very young adult. I went shopping, swimming at the beach and sleep. My job was currently being a model, even though I didn't like my body very much. Other people seem to though. They paid me very well. I didn't work very much probably twice a week.
I continued down the street until I reached my beach house. It was big enough for a family but I shared it with only 2 other girls. Opening the door I was welcomed by my dog, Maxy. Sure I could have named him Max but who cares. My phone rang in my back pocket, someone is calling me. Probably Mama.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Oh sweetheart! How was your day?!" My Mama said, her voice filled with excitement.
"I'm fine Ma, just got home from skate boarding."
"That's great honey. You should come visit me! It's getting very quiet without your brother here. I can't stand it! But please plan something to visit me honey!"
"Ok Mama. I will soon just not now" I didn't want to upset her but I have a few photoshoots coming up.
"Well I will leave you alone sweetheart. I love you"
"I love you too" I smiled and hung up.
She cares so much and I appreciate that. Maxy jumped on my lap and licked my face. Good dog.
*hours later
I take a deep breath diving deep under the salty water, the taste not very good. A sea turtle began swimming beside me as continued out the ocean. The sea animals here were always friendly, the Sharks didn't bother. Always stayed below. Down in the depths.
The sea turtle seemed to wave at me as if it were saying goodbye and swam away. Sounds stupid that a turtle would actually wave, but it flapped it's flipper at me. Whatever you call those. Tonight I want to go and explore the city. Should be nice. I swam back to shore and dried my dripping wet body with a towel and started walking back home.
By the time I got home the sun had set and it was dark outside. No one was home when I got there and so I decided to take a bath and relax myself, the treatment I deserved. I got undressed and turned the water on. Fuck I forgot a towel. Running out the bathroom I quickly grabbed a towel and ran back in. I finally stepped into the bath and my muscles immediantly relaxed. Ah.
I leaned my head back and began thinking. Mama wants me to visit her, maybe I should order some tickets for next week. I'm free from next week till the next month. Trust me I have nothing planned, not even a photoshoot. I'll put that on my checklist and a reminder on my phone. I haven't been to Nebraska since I moved out when I was 18. I was pretty young to move out my parents house but I was very responsible and smart. I finished college while in highschool and I had lots of scholarships. My Ma said I could do whatever I feel like doing is right so thats what I did.
My brother was just like me, but he moved out recently at the age 19. I'm currently 21, and living the best life I could imagine. What did I study in college? Photography and fashion.
My fingers started to get soggy so I think it's about time to get out. The towel that was laying on the vanity now around my body and I dry myself off, all the wet drops of water soaking
into the towel. I walked out the bathroom into my room and pulled out my underwear and a t-shirt. Yes I only sleep with that on, I get really sweaty sometimes. Crawling into the big fluffy bed, I clapped my hands and the light went off. Cool right?Falling into a deep calming sleep the last thing I had on my mind was Mama and Nebraska.
