¬£¬ An Old Friend¬£¬ 

       "How do I look?" I asked my dad as I began walking out the dressing room with the third outfit I had picked out; a pair of red skinny jeans and a black shirt with red, grey, and blue desgins.

       "You look cute." My father said with a smile and a nod of approval.

       "Cute? That's it just cute?" I cannot be looking cute! I have to look good.

       "Yeah. You look adorable." NO!!! My face fell as I just stared at him; he just made the outfit even worse. Remind me never to bring my dad a long with me while I shop for clothes ever again.

       "That's it the shirt has to go." I said throwing my hands up in defeat and going back into the dressing room. Guys will never understand the meaning of an outfit, especially when it comes to their daughters.

       "What did I say?" He asked clueless.

       "You said I look adorable." I yelled from the dressing room.

       "What's wrong with what I said?"

       "Adorable and cute are for little kids, and I'm not a little kid anymore dad." I informed him as I changed my shirt.

       "You're right you're not a little kid anymore, I apologize." He called after me, I could picture him rolling his eyes as well. "This is why your mother should've been here." He said exasperated. I could picture him shaking his head and giving me a slight eye roll. I just smiled to myself and laughed. I loved my dad.

       "Okay what about this shirt?" I asked walking out of the dressing room now dressed in a navy blue off the shoulder crop top, that had a giant red heart in the middle. It showcased my well toned stomach and my silver skull and bones belly ring.

       "I like it. It has you written all over it." I can tell he was trying to make up from the last comment he made, so I let this one slide. Besides I really liked this shirt.

       "Okay. I like this shirt too. I'm ready now." I went back in the dressing room, changed back into my regular clothes, and gathered the outfits I tried on and went to the counter, the cashier rung them up and my dad rolled his eyes at the price of everything, but he paid for them anyway. We may not have much money, but my dad knew how to ball on a budget. You would think we had a lot of money with the clothes I buy but we don't, I just know how to save. We walked out the store and stopped by the benches.

       "Where do you want to go next? We still have time for two more stores, that's if you don't kill me first." He said looking through his wallet at what was left of his money. My dad never brings all his money with him only because he know if he did then it would all get spent on a bunch of nothing and he'd be in trouble.

       I let out a small laugh and gave him a wide smile. "Let's go to Forever 21."

       "Alright Forever 21 it is." We walked around until we found Forever 21. Just as we entered I spotted a graphic t that caught my eye instantly.

       Abandoning my dad at the entrance I make my way over to the rack of shirts. "Me likie." I grabbed my size and looked for other cute shirts in my size. Once I found the ones I liked, I went into the dressing room and tried them on. They fit and looked sexy too. I couldn't help but flirt with my own reflection, call me weird all you want but you would have done the same thing if you found a nice shirt that made you look sexy.
