After school I got home to talk to my mom "mom?" I call "I'm in the kitchen Riley" she calls back "mom can we talk?" I ask "sure" she says crossing her arms over her chest with a fake smile "I'm really sorry for what I said earlier" I reply "you should be Riley why have you been acting like this any way" she asks.

I sigh "I've only been acting like this because I wanted your attention okay" I say "Riley what do you mean you always had my attention"she softly says "not really you never paid attention to the thimgs I liked, you always paid attention to the things you wanted me to like remembered when we talked about colleges you wanted me to go to Harvard to become a lawyer but I wanted to go to C.U to become a  photographer but you didn't listen you never listen to me mom and that's all I want from you is for you to listen to me and to except me for me that's all I want"I shout

But I only shouted because I was hurt "ri-riley I never knew that I just wanted you to be successful I didn't want you to be like me and become pregnant at the age of sixteen but just know you and Ryan weren't a mistake I just wish I did something better in my life other than getting pregnant at a young age I'm sorry for never listening to you Riley and understanding you more" she says

"It's okay mom I forgive you "I say hugging her she wraps her arms around me like I would disappear any minute she caresses my hair "I love you Riley" she says "I love you to mom" I reply.

I go outside to my yard and lay on the grass looking at the night sky watching the stars as the warm breeze hit my body my phone gets a beep notifying me I got a message I look at it to see it's from Matt.

M-hey is it a good time to come over

R-um...yea just come through my backyard

M-okay see you in a bit sweet thang

R-really?

M-yes really

I swear Matt can be a pain sometimes I hear someone footsteps I look behind me to see Matt "what ya doing?" He asked "just looking at the stars" I reply Matt lays beside me "how'd things go with your mom" he says "good actually talking to her and telling her how I felt actually worked"I reply

" I told you" he says "thank you" I say "for what?" he asked "for always being there and being by my side I really needed it" I reply Matt intertwines our hands "hey I would do anything for you" he replies "I know" I yawn snuggling up to his chest.
