The city is beautiful day and night. I smiled gazing at this amazing city. Cars looked like toy cars all the way up here. The people below looked like ants. Just then someone knocked on my door. I walked over and opened it.
Elie sucked her teeth. I put my hands on my hips.
"Look mom's taking us to breakfast and to get some new clothes for next week" she said then left. I slammed the door shut. I pulled the curtains closed then walked to my closet.
I pulled out my favorite T-shirt. It's black and has a picture of me in cartoon form holding a flower over my mouth. I made it last year when we lived in California. I really made it for Elie but she refused to wear it in public so I took it back I'm not gonna let a shirt this nice sit in the back of Elie's monster closet. Then took out a pair of faded ripped skinny jeans and gray converse. I pulled my hair into a pony tail and put on a pair of pearl triple chain earrings . Then grabbed my bag and put 25 dollars,my speak pad, two pens, and my I-phone.
I walked into the living room to find my dad watching the news. I picked up my speak pad and wrote "Morning".
"Morning" he said smiling.
" Why aren't you dressed" I wrote.
" I'm just going to hang out here today" he said.
I nodded. Elie walked out her room wearing a pink tie die tank top, dark blue booty shorts, yellow gold dragonfly dangling earings and pink flip flops. Her hair is in a low sideways ponytail. My mom walked out of the bathroom wearing blue flutter sleeve dress, black Vivien pleated heeled sandals and black hoop earrings.
"Jeez were going to eat and shop not to a wild party" I wrote.
They looked at each other and laughed. I rolled my eyes
(After breakfast)
I looked around in amazement. I finally get to experience the city up close.
"So which store first" Elie asked.
" How about this one" my mom asked stopping in front of a store named " Fab". The maniac's were pink and purple, the curtains white with sparkles, the window frame white and the outside of the store was pink. I gave them a look and took put my speak pad.
"I think I'll pass" I wrote.
"Oh come on it's time to stop wearing all that black and time to start acting like a real girl" my mom said.
My mouth opened.
"You mean like Elie" I wrote.
She put her down.
"I'll see you guys at home" I wrote and started walking away. Tears began to fill my eyes. I can't believe she said that. I looked around then stopped until I couldn't hear or see them anymore. I then realized I have no idea where I was going. I looked side to side. I turned the corner and paused at a store named "Fearless". The clothes were mostly my style. I opened the door.
This store is huge. I looked at the signs. I guess I'll check out the section called "Causal" since I have no one to impress. I paused while walking through the section called "Sexy". I walked over to this dress that caught my eye. The dress was dark red it's strapless and shows a little cleavage the top is the dress is black. I put my hands in my pockets. It's not really my style. I picked up the price tag. My eyes opened wide. A 100 dollars! Also most definitely not my cost.
"Ecuse me can I help you" one of the sales people asked. I shook my head "no" She stood there for a minute then left. I sighed then walked over to the" casual" section. I found a pretty cool gray T-shirt that says"Stay True Stay You" it's just what I need right now. I left the store with 10 dollars. I was just about to turn the corner when I fell forwards after tripping over a rock. I closed my eyes getting ready to hit the floor but in stead fell into the arms off someone. I opened my eyes. My breath was taken away.
His strong muscular arms still wrapped around me. His gorgous little brown staring right into mine, his hair brown, and I could fell his breath against my neck. We stood there me in his arms.
"I'm sorry" he said. I shook my head then smiled. He let go of me then stepped back a little. My heart facing. I swallowed.
"I'm Deuce he said.
I smiled. Then frowned. I quickly began to ran past him. I grabbed a taxi.
( Later in the day)
I walked into my room in my towel just getting out of the shower. I got dressed into a dark blue tank top and black sweatpants. I opened my curtains. Then pulled my desk chair to the window. I began to watch the city. There was a knock at the door. My mom entered my room. I quickly turned back to the window. I hadn't talked to her since this morning.
"Can we talk" she said handing my speak pad.
I took it from her and wrote.
"About what how you want me more like Elie" I wrote.
"I sorry I didn't mean it like that honey" she said putting her hand on my shoulder. I quickly shook her off.
"Just go" I wrote. She sighed then walked to the door but stopped.
"When your ready to talk I'll be in my room" she said then closed the door behind herself.
I looked at my clock on my desk 8:10. I took a piece off paper and a pen and sat on my bed.
Dear Me,
Today was interesting. Mom said somethings that really upset me. She finally admitted it. She finally said she wants me like Elie she might have not said it in those words but I know what she meant. Well to bad for her. I'm not Elie I'm me.
On the other hand I'm kinda glad she said it. If she hadn't I would have never went to "Fearless" I would have never saw that dress never would have got that cool T-shirt, and best of all never would have met Deuce. Yes I meant a guy I was and still think I am head over heals for or in my case head over converse for. He's gorgeous but I'm weird and if I were to have told him I can't speak he would have run off. He probably would have run off anyway even if I could speak everyone does.

Yourself
I put it with the others then sat back at the window. I looked at the building across the street. My heart began to thump. No way! I looked closer. It's.................... him.
