Since the GoFundMe thing was a bust, I took matters into my own hands, well some of the matters. I decided to sell some of my pictures online. I made my own website called Maddox Photography and have the pictures priced from $15-$30. I've already sold three for $30 a pop. I even set up a progress tracker, which I didn't know that I knew how to do. 

I started uploading some more pictures and listening to How to Save a Life by The Fray on full blast. (It's a good thing that I have headphones in, because I don't want people to know that I listen to this song.) Then I got that dizzy feeling again. I've been getting it a lot lately, but I think it's because of my concussion. I haven't told anyone, because I think it's fine. That feeling went away pretty quickly, so I bet nothing is wrong.

I uploaded one of my favorite pictures that I've ever taken. It's of the ferris wheel at Navy Pier in Chicago. I took it when we went there a couple years ago. I turned it black and white and then priced it at $27. Right away, I got a bid for it, then another. The price was going up past $50. I couldn't believe it! Then one person bid $100 and they won it because no one else would match it or go higher. I had to look at who this was. I clicked on the screen name which was 'KittyPro130.' Huh, that's weird. My birthday is in their screen name, I thought as I clicked on it. I couldn't believe who it was. Carly! It's Carly and she just spent $100 on my picture, I thought.

I shuffled around my desk for my phone. I had to call her and ask her why she just payed $100 for one of my  pictures. I moved a lot of papers and junk around until I finally found my phone. Man, I really need to clean this desk off, I thought to myself as I dialed her number. It rang for about two seconds, then she picked up.

"Hello?" she answered.

"Hey, I've got a question for you," I said.

"Shoot," she said.

"Did you just spend $100 on a picture online?" I asked smiling to myself.

"Um, no," she said nervously. I could tell she was lying, after all, we've been together for almost three years.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"Y-ya," she said.

"Okay, I don't suppose you know who 'KittyPro130' is then," I said.

"Nope, n-never heard of that before," she stammered.

"Alright then, that's all I wanted to ask then," I said.

"I have a question for you now," she said. 

"Okay, what is it?" 

"Do you think that everything happens for a reason?" she asked quietly.

"What do you mean?" I asked back.

"Like, do you think that my parents are getting divorced because of something my brothers or I did?" she asked, her voice hitching on 'I.'

"Carly, you and your brothers had nothing to do with them getting divorced," I reassured her.

"But you don't know that!" she yelled. "You don't know that I didn't do anything!"

"Carly, just calm down. You are absolutely perfect, you did nothing to make them split," I said calmly.

"You're my boyfriend, you're supposed to say things like that," she said calming a little.
