My Summer Experience

-P R O L O G U E-

KAYLA'S  P. O. V

I walked into my house and I was really sweaty. I needed to take a shower as soon as possible. My mom was in the kitchen making dinner and I greeted her and ran upstairs to my room.

All I want to do right now is take a cold, refreshing shower. I stripped from my blue tank top and baskbetball shorts and I stepped into the shower. Feeling the cold water run through my skin felt really relaxing, and soon after, I stepped out. My hair was in the messy fishtail braid I put it in before leaving to play basketball with my friends, so there was no need to stress about that. I then put on my Sponge Bob pyjamas. Yeah, it's just 07:00PM but I'm pretty lazy.

I was about walking out the door to help my mom in the kitchen when I heard my phone beep. It was a text from Carter.

Carter's my best friend. We've been friends for like three years, and I've always had a secret crush on him. I never told him because I was afraid it'll make things awkward and ruin our friendship.

Carter: 'Hey Kayson!"  That was Carter's nickname for me. It was a combination of my first name and my last name. I've always found it a little weird though.

Me: 'Hey you!'

Carter: 'Are you still up for tomorrow?'

Me: 'Yup.'

Carter: 'Alright, I'll pick you up by 2'

I smiled and then went off to help my mom in the kitchen. Mmm, spaghetti sauce.

Dad came home shortly after and soon it was time for dinner.

I helped my mom set the table as she called my brothers down for dinner. I had no idea those two were home.

They came down with smirks on their faces and I couldn't help but wonder what they've been up to.

Dad said Grace and we started eating. Silence hung in the air. The only thing heard was the sound of our forks grazing our ceramic plates. I could tell everyone was really hungry.

I looked up from my food to catching my parents stealing glances at each other. It looked like they were trying to communicate something with their eyes.

Minutes passed and I was almost done with my food. Dad placed his fork down, drank some water and cleared his throat.

"So Kayla... " He started off.

"Yes dad" I drank some water. It seemed the spaghetti sauce was too spicy. Maybe not. I just hate pepper.

"What plans do you have for summer? " He drank some more water. Yep I was right. It's too spicy.

"Probably just gonna go out and  fun with my friends why? "

"Well your mom and I have something planned out, we paid for it about two months ago"  Part of me is hoping it's a vacation to Dubai. Part of me is telling me not to get my hopes high. If it were a vacation he'll probably talk about it with the boys too. Why is he so focused on me? The boys, who have now finished their foods are currently on their phones not caring about what dad is saying.

"So.. What is it? " The curiosity is killing me. They looked at each other one more time as if afraid of what my reaction might be.

"Kayla we want you to... "
