I stuff a bag with clothes then grab my wallet and car keys.. 

I realize I never told my mom what I was doing.. shit.


I sling the bag over my shoulder, tuck my things into my pockets, then head downstairs. It's already 2, so if I leave now, I'll get to Cheshire by a little after 4.

"Hey mom!" i shout through the house

"Living room!" she calls back


I walk into the living room and see that she's watching a show on TV while painting her toe nails


"I'm going to a friends for the weekend."

"Which friend?"

"Uhm.. His name is Harry. He's very kind. And respectful. I hope you'll meet him soon"

thats a lie. she's never going to meet him


"Where's he live?"

"erm," I take a deep breath, "Not too far.. other side of Donny."


she looks at me with the face that says she's worried and doesn't believe me


"I'll be home sunday, okay, I promise." I soften my voice and walk over to her

She takes my hand and smiles at me

"Be safe, okay?"


I want to roll my eyes at this entire 'good mom' act but I just smile a little and nod

"Thanks, I will"
