Kaimana's POV

Me and Jennifer are getting out of my car, grabbing my bag and shutting the car door, before us two walk inside.

As soon as I walked through I saw my mum standing there with her handbag on her shoulder, while my dad was walking down the stairs buttoning up his suit.

"Hey girls." My dad greeted us and kissed our foreheads. And my sister went up to her room. "Hey dad, you guys going somewhere?" I ask.
"Yep, date night Tonight." They tell me.

"On and I heard from the Wilders, apparently Alex asked everyone to hang out today right?" My Mum asked me. "Oh- uh yeah he did." I say.

"So... Did you say yes?" She asks.
"Uh no not today."I admit. "Oh come on sweetheart. What did we talk about this morning." She said annoyed. "I know, I know, but it just feels to awkward too talk to them." I tell them walking into the living room, as my mum follows and my dad walks away to get ready.

"Oh come on just go see him please."
She pleaded me. "I'm sorry mum but no, so can we just drop it please?" I say. "No young lady I will not just
"Drop it" you really need to get some friends, and you and Alex used to be great together. Ok so give me one actual good reason besides from it being to weird." She ranted.

"Mum seriously- just- uhm-" I start to slip up on my words, and began to hyperventilate a bit. "Oh shit, kaimana have you had your pills today?" She asks and since I can barely breathe, I just shake my head no.

"Ok shit, just sit down and I'll get you them." She told me before running out of the room and going up the stairs, her heels hitting the wooden floors making her footsteps louder.

After Amy died, and the group split up, I got major anxiety from it. So now as soon as I get stressed even a little bit, I become overwhelmed and start to panic. That's why I never really made friends, because I always felt like friends were way too much drama, and I felt like being caught in the middle of that would stress me out.

But while I was lost in thought, something strange happened.
I don't know what it was but it felt like a small earthquake happening around me. And my body started to feel like it was heating up. And not like I was feeling hot, I mean I felt like my skin was on fire. It wasn't hurting but it felt uncomfortable, and I started to close my eyes tightly. I don't know what was happening but it quickly came to a stop as I heard my mother's footsteps.

My mum rushed down the stairs to the kitchen and poured a glass of water. She ran up to me and gave the water and pill, then sat next to me on the couch.

"Are you ok sweetie?" My mother asks concerned. "Yeah. Yeah, yeah I'm fine." I paused to drink some more water, all I'm thinking is to just ignore what happened to me before. "Ok maybe you should come with me so I can watch you." She suggested.

"No don't worry, go have your date night with Dad alright, I'll be fine." I say. "No I don't care ok, I think I'm gonna be worried if I let you home alone. I'm gonna drop you off at the Wilder's ok." She said sternly, but still with concern. "What! No no, I'm ok I'll just stay with Jennifer." I say.
"Jennifer is going out tonight and Anissa is at her girlfriends, so you would be alone." She reminded me.

I steady my breathing and say.
"Fine, ok I'll go." I said giving in to the peer pressure. "Thank you kaimana."
My mum thanked me and kissed my forehead, and walked away.
I clicked my tongue and inhaled before whispering quietly to myself. "God dammit." I muttered while rubbing my temple.

*Time skip*

My parents car pulled into the Wilder's driveway and parking. I exited the car and my dad said to me.
"Ok cupcake, just go to your old hangout place and we'll be back to pick you up in a few hours ok." He told me. "Yeah I know dad, I'll see you's later." I say waving goodbye and walking towards the pool house.
