Scarlett's secret ~ (Finding A Home)

chapter 16

Wait they couldn't do that, the school had to notify me first before something like that couldn't happen my mom said.

They called you to talk about it with you but you figured that I did something at school an got into trouble, you said that you was in a rush and at work. You told the school we'll take care of everything.

So the school sent a packets home for you to read and sign, it was about them moving me up a grade level. You ended up coming home and fussing at me and then you grounded me for two weeks.

I gave you the paper that told you the pack of papers need to be signed and return to school the following day.

Because it was a project in school that had to be done during school and was grade level removal.

The school needed to have me do a retest and it needs the parents signature and permission to do so.

You sign all the paper without actually reading the package. I turned it in and they retest me there at school in the guidance office. It was 3 days later they called me back into the office and gave me the package with the letter stating that I passed and the next School year I would be in 6th grade not 5th.

This is kind of funny that we are talking about this because the school here was going to call you today to see if you could come in around lunch to have a parent conference with the principal and me.

But since I got picked up early that didn't work out. I figured they'll do it tomorrow. They want to talk to you about having me tested, because I'm so far ahead than everyone else and not being challenged enough in my current grade level.

I don't even know what to say to that. I.. I.. I'm sorry Scarlett for how I treated you. Can you ever forgive me and give me a second chance how's your mother she asked?

Yeah, I can give you a second chance. Just so you know I never did hate you.
I just really didn't like you at times.

Let's just say it's all water under the bridge and move on from here. It's not even been 24 hours an I'm tired of have to explaining my self or my past.

I'm really over it already. All I really want is a new beginning. But I'll say this, you can make it up to me.

If you would sign a legal emancipation papers for my 16th birthday. I don't want to sound cruel or anything, but the both of you are pretty loud at night. I would appreciate it a lot, if Dean can stop walking around the house butt ass naked! For a bear shifter your senses suck sorry not sorry, I said with a grin on my face trying my best not to laugh.

Mark an Jennifer were laughing, dean was red in the face. Mom hands was over her face. Caleb had his hands crossed over his chest lightly growling in Dean Direction. I was trying hard not to laugh.

After a few minutes everybody calm down from the conversation we just had. Mom ended up sitting back in her seat and looked right at me and said I am glad that you are speaking to me and after lunch we will swing by the school an speak to the principal together.

As far as the emancipation papers go I don't know I want to say that you're not ready or prepared for that but to be honest I really seem not to know much about you she said with a very sad face. Dean had called me on the phone when you all left the clinic and he has been feeling me in I know that you can take care of a home and I guess I would worry about school but then again if the school is wanting to move you up that would be putting you as a senior next year. And it seems to me that you are handling school just fine. The next concern I would have is finances you will need a job and to pay bills I don't want to see you struggling. This is something that I'm going to talk about with Dean and we will give you an answer about this on your birthday.

That sounds more than fair to me I told her. And just so you know financially I am fine I do have a small business Online. And my dad did leave me a trust fund and I got all of his family borrow money from when he passed. I even inherited the money that my grandmother had left over after she had passed as well. I don't know exactly how much I got but I know it's enough to get me up on my feet for some time until I really figure out what I want to do in life.

Wait you have an online business how is that even possible my mother asked. I just sighed and then explain I started the business when I was seven I lied about my age and I told you that you needed to sign the paper for a project that I was doing which currently wasn't a lie you sign the paper and I got the business started and when I was 14 I ended up making a new business and using the old contract with the signature of your name and started it I sold my old business to my new business because you had to be illegally 14 years old with a parent signature to have an online small business I explained to her.

What's is the name of your online business, Jennifer asked? It's called holidaycreations.org a second party business and I make 65% of all sales.

I use a third party off Branch to move and supply all of my hoarders to the customers. All I have to do is the web design and the sales marketing.

Everybody was just staring at me with shocked faces until Jennifer broke the silence, she said I'm definitely checking out your website. I am really starting to love this girl.
