Its a Friday and school starts in 2 days. I have been anxious about school and we go school shopping today. Aunt Cathy gave us a thousand dollars each for school clothes and she said we have to spend it all. She really enjoys spending her money on us. After I lay in my bed for a while I hear a knock on my door. "Ready to go " she asks. "Yeah" I say as I rush out the door.
When we get to the store I see a lot of stuff I like. We Separate in the mall after Aunt Cathy hands me the money. "Don't come back with a penny left over" She tells us and walks off. The first thing I do is head to get my nails done. I decide on mattè black with gold glitter. After I get my nails done, I head over to the food court. After I leave the food court I buy a whole deal of clothes, like a lot. I buy perfume and a whole lot of other stuff I need. It was really hard to spend the full one thousand dollars. I go back to the food court and eat again. After that I walk out to the parking lot and wait for Tyler and Aunt Cathy. I sit down on a bench near by. I hear my phone ringing. Mom: "Hello" I say. "Oh Kaylin how I've missed your voice. so much" she tells me. "What do you want" I exclaim. "Kaylin. don't be rude. I am still your mother" she says sternly. "Bye. I have nothing to say to you. you can't even tell me what to do. By law. " I exclaim and hang up. I have a facetime call coming in almost immediately after. l put my headphones in and answer. Its Caleb. "Heey" Caleb says. he's somewhere outside, somewhere familiar. "Turn around" he adds. I turn around and see Caleb behind me. I run up and hug him. "Hey punk. who were you on the phone with" he asks me. "Don't worry about it" I tell him. Caleb still dosent know why im here but maybe I'll tell him eventually.
