Ingrid's POV

"Ingrid has to get out and meet some people! I can't allow her to be so shy all the time!" I can hear dad through the walls. He's "talking" to mom. I don't like when they fight.

"That's just her personality honey. But even if she's shy, she will make friends sooner or later!" My mom says trying to calm down dad.

"Sigh. I still don't like it."

"It takes time honey. You just wait ok?" My mom says to him, in a lower voice.

Thats all I can hear from them. The only reason why im shy is that im afraid of people of what they will think of me. They might think im a freak. Life has been tough.

*Ring Ring!*

Who's that calling?

I reach for my phone and the name Grace appears on the screen. I wonder what she wants...

Ingrid: Hey Grace!
Grace: Hey Ingrid! What are you doing?
Ingrid: Nothing... so what do you want?
Grace: Have you heard of YouTube?
Ingrid: YouTube? Whats that?
Grace: Its a website where you can upload videos! It's brand new, but I know it'll catch on soon!
Ingrid: I don't know... you know how I am...
Grace: Oh come on Ingrid! I started, and I have about 850,000 subscribers!
Ingrid: Subscribers? Whats that?
Grace: Enough talking Ingrid! Can you come over?
Ingrid: I'll just have to ask my parents. I'll text or call you later!

*End of call*

I quickly went to my parents room and asked them if I can go to Grace's house. After a boring lecture about me being so "shy", I finally drove to Grace's house.

*knock knock*

"Hey Ingrid! Come in" Grace invited me inside.
"Ok. So show me what YouTube is." I said with a shaky tone, sorta nervous, yet curious of what it is.

*the author was too lazy to put in the whole introduction to YouTube crap, so after all that jazz*

"So whadya think?" Grace said.
"Its cool and all, but I dont think I'll start it anytime soon. At least I dont think so..." I replied.
"Ok then."
"Ok."

*Back at Ingrid's house, it is dinnertime"


"So Ingrid" My dad said.

"Yeah?"

"Me and your mom have been talking about you lately..."

Oh great, THIS again...

"What about?"

"Well... we want you to go to the University of California next year since you are a senior..."

"Dad! Mom! No! I don't want to go! I don't even know what I want to be when I grow up!" I said back, furious. Why did dad and mom have to be this way?

"Ingrid, you have to! Plus, we have been paying for your college tuitio-"

"Well dad, you can't force me to do anything that I don't want to!"

"Don't you dare say that tone at me young lady!" My dad sorta shouts-says to me across the dinning room table."

"Whatever. Im going to bed. Goodnight."

As I walk upstairs to my room, I can feel the tears invading my eyes. Shit, why is life this hard on me? I open my door, crawl in bed, and cry myself to sleep.


OOOHHHH IM THE AUTHOR FROM THE FUTURE!!!! I just edited some stuff about college! That's all!
