Little Miss Perfect

3

After doing all my homework at the libeary, i head to my favourit nail salon and get my nails done when that was over i rushed to Target to get a few things that i'll need for school. Its been one hell of a day but i have to do it. I spent so much time at the library, turns out i  hard a lot more work than i thought i did and i hate when i do not follow the time i set out for my various task, its almost 6 now and i still cannot decide what binder to get.

Looking between the purple and blue binders i try to scan through the qualities to see which i like better but the  two just look so good, screw it im getting the purple before i have a mental breakdown in the middle of target but getting to the check out, a girl with strawberry blonde hair, brown eyes and chubby features scanned me, i hated the way she chewed her gum, kinda loud with her mouth slightly opening once in a while, i place the items and when she was done i gave hervmy card, she look almost irrtatated looking at me.

While i was happy that i scored free check out like i do not think i would want to ever encounter with her again.

I hurried to my car, if i do not leavenow mum will kill me, so i took a deep breath then stared the drive home

•°•°•°•°

"Mom i'm home" i say as i get into the house dropping my key into the bowl lazily

"Its almost 7:30 where have you been?" Everyone is seated on the dining table once more and i join them as mom walks in with a bowl of mashed potatos "and did you leave the house dressed like that?" She eyes me carefully and i cannot help but feel like i am dressed like a slop maybe thats why the girl at target was looking at me like i was some kind of disease.

"I was just at the libeary!" I try to defend my out fit but she just waves her hands in the air dismissing our conversation, thank God

"Say Grace" mom said, i knew she was talking to me even if she did not say a name

"Thank you lord for another Successful day we are thankful for this meal and we pray for your mercy "

"Amen" they all said digging into their food in silence. We've always been like this, mom did not like us talking with food in our mouth so we just stopped talking while we ate, it was easier for us.

"Iris put the dishes in the dish washer" mom said as soon as we all finished our food, i did not wait for mom to send me up to my room before quietly moving there, she liked us to get our things ready against the next day and tomorrow we were going to church which ment that our out fit had to be arranged a day before.

I was running my hand on a silver off should body fitted dress when i heard a knock on my room door which was strangs because no body in this house respected privacy let alone knocked

"Its opened" i say still standing at my closet tring to figure out if i should wear the silver dress or go with the yellow sunflower dress

"Hey....." I did not need to look to see it was Iris

"Whats up?" I replied finally deciding to go with the silver dress

"I got to study micro Biology at Harvard" by the time i turn to look at Iris she is seated at the edge of my bed looking down at her feet. She sounds like she is over the moon about this information but she looks like she would break into tears at any moment.

"Thats great!" Honestly i did not know how to react to this because it felt like if i said anything negative my mom would hear our conversation and march in here to yell at us, she would say She was only doing what she though was best for us like she always did. And i am not sure if this is good news for Iris

"Yeah!" Iris smiled but there was a storm behind her blue-gray eyes, her blonde hair was a mess from pulling it,i could tell she did not want to go to Harvard or go for any medical cource what so ever but at the same time she really did not have a choice

"I'm sure you would do great!" I was really trying to convince her rather than tell her and i could tell that she got the message because what followed was a huge sigh falling from her lips

"I'm gonna go now and get my shit ready for tomorrow" with that she walked out of my room leaving my door open. I hate it when she does that so i marched up to my door and when i looked at the hall way it was empty, Aria was also proberly in her room getting ready for church tomorrow. I wanted to go there, to see What she was up to, to as her how she was feeling butci did not know how, that was something Iris did.

After picking my shoe and jewlery to go with my dress i  went to take ashort shower. When i came out i felt so tired so i  just climbed my bed taking my phone along with me to see  what happened while i was away but i was met with a missed call from Max so i decide to call him back.

"Hello?" I say into the speaker

"Hey baby, how are you?" I can feel his smile from the other end of the phone. Max is my boy friend and we have been together since like the seventh grade and we have been going strong ever since

"You called?" I try to sound relaxed but my voice betrays me

"So..... I don't even get a baby i miss you or im fine babe? Just stright to the point?" He sounds a little upset but i really need to sleep soon and get up early for tomorrow

"Sorry im just really tired and tomorrow is just another busy day" i sigh thinking again if i should have gone for the sunflower dress insted of the silver one

"I know babe....." He says something but my mind in lost thinking about what my mom would say if she did not approve of my dress "Babe?" Max sounds paniced

"Sorry I......." I start

"No its ok babe you are proberly tired, i was just asking if you could sneak out tonight and go to a concert with me?" He cuts me off. My head is spinning with a possability where i would jump out of bed to get dressed for the concert he is talking about but i know better

"No.... I have church tomorrow" i am convincing myself rather than telling him

"Come on babe! Loosen up! Lil Durk is playing!" Excitment clear in in his voice

"Max i really cannot be sleeping in church..."

"You'll be back before 12 i swear it!" I almost tell him that i'll be out in 5 minuits but im happy that i quickly collect myself before his words pull me under

"Max...." At this point i dont even know what to say "i just can't"

"Fine i won't push it, but it would have been dope if you came" i love how i can tell how he is feeling just by hearing his voice

"I'm sorry" i sigh for what feels like the 50th time today

"I love you, see you monday" he says lazily as if trying to send a message that the concert will pratically be useless if i do not show up

"I love you too" i say then the call ends, with another sigh i place my phone on the night stand then shift to lay on my side begging for sleep to take me

As i start to drift off i dream of myself at that concert with Max and Lil Durk having the time of my life.
