"Summer keep your phone aside or else I will throw it." Mom said nudging me.

"What else am I going to do in this goddamn party full of so called 'sophisticated ' people and their snuck of kids? " I told.

She glared at me and left me alone to go talk with her colleagues. I again pissed her off. But at least I came in this party to make her happy. She should be grateful. OK, I am acting bitchy but seriously I don't belong here. People in this party are dressed as if they are in some red carpet event. I don't have problem with it but they are giving me, 'DID YOU LOST YOUR WAY AND ENDED UP HERE BY MISTAKE?' kind of look.
I don't blame them fully. I came in the party wearing ripped off jeans, t-shirt with ARMY written on it with combat print jacket and Dr. Martins. Don't blame me. I didn't know that the party would be this grand. Hell!! If I knew I would have never agreed to come here. But now there is no going back I am stuck here for rest of the night. Sigh.

"Summer, come here I want to introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Smith. "Mom said sweetly. Wasn't she mad at me a few minutes ago? She is acting like Austin.

I went to her side, she was talking with some rich looking couple who were holding a glass that looked super costly. They saw me and smiled, I returned an awkward smile.
"You must be her daughter. " The old guy said. No, I am her son, I wanted to tell but kept my mouth zipped.
" Yeah "I said instead.
" Mr. and Mrs. Smith , this is my baby girl Summer and they are Mr. and Mrs. Smith owner of Smith creations, the company in which I work. "She introduced us. So she works in this company. Yeah, I am a shitty daughter. I didn't know where she works till now.
" Nice to meet you dear. "Mrs. Smith said politely. Now what should I say?
Instead of replying I tried to laugh. Yeah, try and the sound came out as hehhh.

Mom nudged me and glared at me. Did I do something wrong? Nice, real nice now mom is pissed at me, again.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith and mom started talking again and I stood there awkwardly. Just then Mr. Cheesy liner, from the party started walking towards us. What is he doing in this party? Why is coming towards us?
Guess what? My queries were answered soon.

"Mom, I attended this shitty party now can I go out for a real party? "He asked Mrs. Smith. Oh.. So Mr. Cheesy liner is my mom's boss's son.. And finally someone gets me, this party is shitty.
" Language Smith language. " Mrs. Smith scolded.
" And you are not going out tonight. " She added.
" But.. " he trailed.
" No buts or stay or else your credit cards are blocked. "She finished..
" Dad.. "He whined like a 2 year old.
HAHA . I laughed. Shit. I quickly shut my mouth. Now everybody's attention was fixated on me. I gulped nervously and then smiled at them.

" Hello beautiful " He said cheesily, in front of my mom and his parents. What was he thinking?
I groaned.
" Well excuse my daughter she lacks manner" My mom said. Well my mom is delusional. Someone is trying to flirt with her daughter and she is scolding me. What does she expects me to do? Kiss him.
Now it was his time to laugh. I stuck out my tongue at him.
"uhumm.. I think you two can give each other company, while we can go and converse with others. "Mr. Smith said and started walking to the other direction, the ladies followed his steps. They did not even wait for our answer. But I guess hanging out with him is better them listening to the businessy talks of elderly people .

" You and me alone, wanna go to my bedroom? " He said teasingly . I was wrong. Businessy talks are definitely better than perverted talks.
I kicked him and answered" Never in a million years"
"Then what after million years? "
And the night continued...
