''Why carter would you do that?"
I shrugged,but really thought how stupid that is. I mean come on captin obvious, it was for fun. Noone in this school can take ajoke. Wait you're probably very confuse,let me back up. It's the last day of my sophmore year. I wanted to have alittle fun,so I cut class and sneaked into the cafeteria kitchen to make the best meal of my life(I was very hungry don't judge). Anyways I.have no cooking skills whatsoever and well lets just say I set the kitchen a blaze. Now I was sitting in a stuffy room listening to the counselor drown on and on. ''Now Carter cooperate with me". Mrs.p begged. I looked over at my mother and knew I had pushed her over the edge. But I was sick of trying to please her, trying to be the perfect daughter. I turned my attention back to mrs.p . ''Im sorry I don't speak idot." I said as innocently as I could. ''CARTER!" My mom yelled. ''Im fed up with you.

I set there thinking about it. Back to luckenbach. All of a sudden I was the happiest girl on earth. ''Now go get your things". Mrs. P commanded.
