basically, i did some writing

The Door

Now, I don't know who the Jolly Roger leaves their door OPEN and puts a sign with a 'Please come inside' message, with a creepy severed hand pointing to the door. Keep in mind that this is the middle of summer.

I roll my eyes, and decide to stop dawdling, and go back home from Clair's house..

I swing the door open, as my mom, a baker, was waiting for a cake to be done.

"Hey, Mom. I'm home."

"Sarah! You're late by an hour!"

An hour???

"Wait... What?"

"You heard me!"

"Like, for serious this time?"

"Yes, for serious this time! I was worried, Sarah. This place is dangerous!"

"Mooom... We live in Suburban Texas!"

"Just... Don't worry me like that!"

I go to my room, feeling the sweat pour down from my neck.

I go to my vanity, which still had my favorite stickers, the French one with a baguette, and an American one, with a Bald Eagle, and pick up the AC remote. I turn it to coolest, and full-blast, and flop down on my bed.

 "It's so uncomfortable!" I turn to Danny, my unicorn plush, which I had for 7 years, "Danny, why can't the summer just be cooler, like in Alaska or something...!"

I grab Danny, and puppet his arms around, and speaking in a deep voice. "Oh, I don't know, Sarah. I wish it was cooler too. But, at least you had fun at Clair's, yeah?"

"She was a snobby snobster, probably out for some, like, new croonies or something."

"Sounds tough. Y'know, maybe a shower would help!"

"Y'know what, Danny? I think it would! Thanks for the idea!"

So, I head to my closet, and take in the smell of... closet. It smelled like an old, and loved book.

I look around for an outfit, like a yellow bow, with an orange dress, and black leggings, with purple skorts. A purple skort?

I take my new outfit, and take one of the many towels strewn about the floor, and head to the shower.

A fifteen-minute-cold-shower later...

"Much better. Oh! I got a new message from Marissa!"

'heyyy sarah u hanging out with a new bestie?'

'nah, my mom forced to go :('

'oof what was she like?'

'she was a total snob. she like, tried to bribe me with money oh yeah that reminds me i saw this weird door with a come inside sign'

'ooo! you should go in'

'naw, my mom would be furious'

'awww please?'

'ok fine'

'tell me what it's like when you do get there'

Sarah closed her phone, and sighed. She went to her bedroom, cleaning it out of boredom.
