Francesca's: POV
Mom and I arrived at the book store twenty minutes ago
I'm looking around they have everything broken down into categories. This place was huge, we went upstairs to the pre teen section after getting directors from the sales associate, l headed over to the selection of the young adults. Looking at the shelf full of books, we lived back in San Francisco l would always go to the library and check out books. Mommy says l take after her when it comes to reading, l ended up giving a lot of books away to make room for the news. I've read over third chapter books
in a six month span, l love reading teen detective stories and mysteries. I picked several books on my favorite authors, l got a five hundred dollar gift card to barns and noble. This will be my first time using it, momma has been dressing more cooler. Today's she's rocking Jeans
A flannel shirt, and a pair of brown cow girl boots
The only difference is mines are black. to match my leggings and pink sweater. Mommy wears fancier clothes because she's a business woman, she wears a lot of suits
When mommy's not wearing those. She dresses up in jeans, stealing momma's tops. Now my baby sister Ariana
Likes wearing tutu's, we're a pretty close knit family
We travel out of town during the summer. Momma's younger sister. Always wears black and a ton of makeup
I'm not allowed to that kinda stuff until l'm sixteen
I always follow the rules, and help my parents out
By doing chores, laundry. Hey Frankie did you find anything good you were looking for. Momma asked me
Yeah I picked out a few new ones, Francesca said
Mom what you get. I ask her, nothing that would interest you. She replies, we head back downstairs to check out
We stood in line waiting on our turn. Momma can we go for milk shakes after we leave here, Frankie says to Stef
We can but I have to text mommy and let know we're at
Stef States. Where now in the front of the line
I put all my books on the counter, l reached inside my wallet for my gift card and presented to the cashier
She placed everything in a bag. The girl gives me back my card and receipt, l put it back in my wallet again
I said thank you and moved away to let mom
Pay for her things. Momma usually uses her credit card
But today she hands the girl cash instead, mommy doesn't like carrying around cash, but there's a lot of muggers
Who women's purses and things. Momma was a police officer before I was born, she showed me pictures where she dressed up in her uniform. We headed out the store
And went to the parking lot we're the car was parked
Mom unlocks the door, l got in the front buckle up
Momma starts up the vehicle. Waiting for the car to warm up a bit, thanks mom for bringing me here Frankie tells Stef. You welcome sweet girl, we drove off
I just stare out the window watching people go by
