I payed for the pizza as everyone sat down at a booth. I know i still was a little upset about paying for the food but as soon as i found out how much a large pizza costed for 5 of us, i was furious. Almost 30 dollars. I've been trying to save my money since i've been shopping too much. This is going to bring my money down a lot. I'll have to ask my dad for a couple hundred dollars. It shouldn't bother him.

I sat down with my friends and ate a few slices of the pepperoni pizza. We finished the pizza quickly. Then, we just hanged out for the remaining minutes. At exactly 7, we left the pizza place and walked back over to the bowling alley. The parking lot was now almost empty. They must've finished the tournament. We went inside, put on some bowling shoes and started bowling.

We bowled all the way until 10:15 until i realize, i have to be home by 10:30!

"Crap! I have to be home in 15 minutes!" i said, setting my bowling ball down.

"You have a curfew?" asked Tom, "dude, that is sad!" he said with a laugh.

"Sorry if my dad is overprotective," i said, taking off my bowling shoes.

"You can't go yet! You're paying!" said Paige.

"What?!" i said. I've had it with them!

"I said-" starts Paige.

"I don't care what you said! I'm not paying another dime tonight! You pay," i said angrily. I returned the shoes and picked up my purse.

"You can't just go," said Martin.

"Yes, i can. Come on, Stacy. Take me home," i said.

"But i want to bowl," said Stacy.

"Well, it's dark. And it would take forever to get home," i said, getting annoyed.

"Don't over exaggerate. It probably is only a 15 minute walk," said Stacy, making a strike.

"Whatever. Screw you all," i said angrily. I stormed out of the bowling alley and marched down the sidewalk into the night.

I don't think i had ever felt so angry. I walked up a curvy, dark road surrounded by trees. The road was empty. I knew that cars barely drove on this road. So i didn't feel scared.

Suddenly, i saw a faint light coming down the road. I looked behind me to see a slim, black car slowly driving down the road. When it reached me, it slowed down even more. I tried to ignore it but i couldn't. I looked at the car to see if i knew who was driving but i couldn't see inside because the windows were tinted. I finally decided to run. I ran as fast as my flats would let me. Good thing i was on track. I can run pretty fast.

The car followed after me. I ran for 5 minutes straight until i got to my house. I quickly unlocked the door and went inside. As soon as i locked the door, i looked out the window to see if the car was gone. It was. I sighed in relief. That was scary.

I check the oven for the time. It's 10:37. Oh well. I'm only 7 minutes late. My dad won't know.

I went up to my room and changed out of my dress into a thin, dark blue t shirt and black basketball shorts. I went to the bathroom to remove my makeup and contacts. Then, i put my glasses on.

I was still angry about what happened. I sometimes wish i wasn't so rich. It ruins so many things. I lay down on my bed, turn off the light and turn on the tv.

The old school telephone in my room rings. I answer it.

"Hey, sweetie," said my dad, "how has your day been?"

"Not too great. Lots of annoying stuff happened" i replied.

"What happened?" he asked sounding a little worried.

"My friends made me pay for dinner and tried to make me pay for bowling! And then, Stacy made me walk home!" i said, leaving out the part about the car following me.

"You had to walk?! Are you okay?" he asked sounding worried.

"Yes! I'm fine," I said.

"Good." he said.

Suddenly, i heard a man in the background. I couldn't make out what he was saying.

"Mmhhh, alright," he said sounding irritated, "sorry honey but i need to go right now. I'll call you back. Bye"

He hanged up. I wondered what that was about. I watched tv. My phone started to ring. It was Stacy. I ignored it. I didn't feel like talking.

As i started to nod off, i heard a loud sound that scared me nearly to death. It sounded like smashing glass. Maybe i imagined it. I don't take any chances though. I stood up, quietly opened my door and looked over the balcony at the top of the stairs. I was shocked by what i saw. The silhouette of a man was at the door. The glass front door was broken.

Oh no. It's a burglar! I thought. I quietly ran back in my room and shut the door. I wished my door had a lock. I picked up my phone and went into my walk in closet. I shut the door slowly.

I just needed to call 911. I dialed the number. They answered immediately.

"Hello? This is emergency services. What is your emergency?" asked the woman.

"Please help me! Someone just broke into my house! I don't know what they want!" i said in a whisper.

"Just calm down, ma'am. Where do you live?" she asked.

"2216 17th avenue south on sunset street," i said.

"And what's your name?" said the woman.

"Lola Taye Stewart," i said.

"Your last name is Stewart? Is Mason Stewart your father?" she asked.

"Yes! Please send help!" i said.

"Right away ma'am. Do you know where the person is?" she said.

"Yes, i think he is downstairs in my living room," i said. I waited for a response but none came.

"Hello?" i said. I looked at my phone and realized, the call dropped. "Damn! Why me?!" i said.

I remained quiet and listened to see if i could hear anything. I did. I heard someone moving around downstairs. Maybe if i just stay here, he'll leave i thought.

Right after i thought that, the telephone began to ring. It's probably dad. I have to answer or he'll call my phone and the guy will know i'm in here. I got out of the closet and picked up the phone.

"Hey, sweetie. I'm back. Just had to take care of something," said dad.

"Dad, someone is in the house!" i said.

"WHAT! Are you okay?" he asked.

"No! I'm not. What do i do?" i said.

"Damn, i should've known this would happen. Okay, I need you to hide in your closet. I'm coming home right now. I'll be there in about 15 minutes. Stay safe," he said and hung up.
