At seven am Arya woke me up, I swear this girl never sleeps in. " Violet can we make pancakes for breakfast before we go shopping please?" I quickly said yes as I went to the bathroom to brush out my bed hair. As I walked past my parents room I saw dad was the only person in there. Mum must have gone to work already. It's not like her to go without saying bye though. "Arya is mummy downstairs?" I shouted but I don't think she heard me. Instead she just continued to run around the landing in her own little world.
After I finished in the bathroom, I went to my bedroom to get dressed and grab my phone. Mum had sent me a texted to say she had gone to work and would be back at nine pm and that she had left money on the side for Arya's school supplies. I stills can't help but feel like something is going on with mum.
"Violet can we make pancakes now?" Arya shouted from the kitchen. So I rushed downstairs to make pancakes. "What pancakes do you want Arya normal pancakes or banana pancakes?"
"Can we make both please?" I laugh at her a little then replied with, "Of course we can." We spent 30 minutes making pancakes and laughing about the mess we made. We was just about to start tidying when dad came downstairs, he took one look at mess and his whole face turned sour. Before he could start shouting I told him that we had just finished eating and was going to tidy up now. He didn't look to impressed that I said something before he could shout as he just stormed off into the back garden.
After dad had left the room, I quickly washed up everything we used and told Arya to get her shoes on. When she finally came downstairs with her shoes on. I grabbed the money of the side and my car keys. "Violet I need to say goodbye to dad before we go." Arya said rushing to find dad. "Hurry up Arya or we aren't going to make it in time to get lunch." I couldn't be bothered to talk to dad when he is in a bad mood. Whenever dad spends all night up doing work he wakes up the next day all grumpy and ready to start an argument with anyone over anything. I just decided that I would wait by the car for her.
She finally came running outside after 10 minutes. "I'm ready to go now." She said with a smile on her face. So I strapped her into the car and headed towards town centre. On the way there Arya was messing around with the radio trying to find a song she likes, even when she found a song she liked it would only be on for a minute or two and then she would turn it over.
When we got into town there wasn't really a lot of shops to get school supplies from. If fact there was only one shop we could find that sold school supplies, it was called ' Enchanted'. It had everything we need for school and sold a bit of everything really. Arya was really in her element in the shop, " Violet it's like we are in Harry Potter, getting all the school supplies for Hogwarts." She said while picking up absolutely anything that was witch and wizard related. The girl that served us at the till looked like she was my age and she had a really good sense of style too. She was wearing a black and white tie dye vest top with a red and black checkered shirt over it. She paired this with black skinny jeans and a pair of sparkling Vans.
" Hi, can I help you?" She said so confidently. " yes we would just like to get these things please" I said while placing our basket on the till. "Sure, would you like a bag?" She asked with out even looking up. "Yes please" I examined her for a little bit before saying " I like your outfit." She smiled at me. " Your T-shirt isn't so bad either." I looked down at my T-shirt because I couldn't remember what one I threw on this morning and asked " do you listen to bring me the horizon too then?"
" Yea, they are a good band. I'm obsessed with their song 'Go to hell for heavens sake' it's such a good." She replied while putting all the stuff we bought in the bag. " I'm Violet by the way" I said while holding my hand out for a hand shake. She looked at me like I'm a bit weird but grabbed my hand anyway and said "Nice to meet you, I'm Nora."
Arya quickly grabbed the bag and walked towards the door. "Let's go Violet, I'm really hungry." She shouted at me from outside the shop, I quickly said bye to Nora and went to go get Arya some lunch.
