It was a few days after the camp out and now Sunday, which is also the day that Benny gives us all a 'day off' from playing. More like the boys, but I'll just act like I have the day off even though I don't do much anyways.
Before anyone could wake up, which is not even very early. I was up to leave the house to avoid them, more so my lovely mommy.
I put on a plain white top and slipped into a simple green mesh long skirt.
I twisted my hair and tied it up into a half up and half down. I put on my regular converse and hurried out the house, making sure to leave a note for Ethan.

The pink lemonade from a food cart I went to was the most interesting thing about this shopping center.
I'm not much a 'shopping' person, I get too distracted and never actually buy anything useful. But other than the sandlot, and anything baseball, I've just realized there isn't much to do around here.
I pass by a shop with a big open window, keeping my eyes on the muscular mannequins displayed. That's pretty interesting, I must say.
From being distracted by the big muscle men, I bump right into someone who was walking by in the incoming direction.
I quickly look at them, "I'm sorry!"
The girl looks at me and I quickly shut my mouth when seeing it was Summer.
"Oh, it's you" She sighs.
"Hi, Summer" I clear my throat, looking down.
"Elara" She nods at me. "What are you doing here?"
"Looking around.." I shrug.
"Cool" She turns to walk away.
"Oh my gosh, Elara, hi!" Daniela comes walking behind her.
"Hi!" I smile at her.
"I didn't know you were going to be here!" She says, excitedly. "You want to come shopping with us?"
