The Trip

Chapter 7

Erin
LA
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I always wondered how it felt to be alone and fragile, I always wondered how it felt to be useless but yet powerful." I say to Chris

Jacob decided to come with us just to have some fun with me because recently he's been hanging out too much with his boyfriend and not that much with me.

Today was raining in LA, I felt really good because the rain remembers me of my childhood and people and of me crying a lot because of anxiety. For me that was normal but for my parents was not normal.

"I never harmed myself, I never really felt like dying, I never felt like a piece of shit, and that's what most teenagers pass through and I just wonder how it felt to be sad." I speak again

"Well I don't know how it feels but it's like playing jenga, you all of that blocks as piece of your life and how big it grows that's how happy and that's how your life has grown, when you do something wrong or when someone does something wrong with it, it just falls down." Chris says

"Wow that was very powerful, where did you get that?" Jacob asks

"Well I don't think I told you but I already told Erin, umh," Chris struggled a bit to speak, "my dad died when I was 13 and he left me, my brother and sister, and my mom." He answers

"Oh I'm so sorry to hear that." Jake respond

I knew that but I couldn't really think about how that could've happen to him.

"No problem, it happened a long time ago, I miss him but it's different now." He says
"Wow this car just got really sad, let me turn on some music." He says again

"Yea" I say

The music gets really loud and we just start singing 'work from home' from 5th Harmony.

We start singing to the song.

"I know your always on the night shiiift but I can't stand this nights aloooone" I sing
...
"You ain't go to work work work work work work work work" Chris says
"You ain't go to go to woooooork." Jacob sings really loud
"Nope nope nope nope" Chris says with a ratchet voice
"Woooork" I sing with a high pitched voice.

The song finished and I ask them

"What do you guys want to eat?"

"I don't know, something basic." Jacob answers

"I want Mexican" Chris says

"I'm half Mexican" Jacob answers

"Jakkeeeee stop" I say with a angry voice.

"Ok" Jacob says

"What about chipotle?" I ask

"Yaaas" Jacob answers

"Ok" I answer

"So now I'm going to get me some Starbucks and also I'm going to put some #tbt music which is going to be awesome so brb." The radio guy says and 711 from Beyoncé goes on and me and Jake just screams.

"Oooohhhhh myyyyy gaaaaaawd" Jake and I squeal really loud.

...

"My hands up" I say
"My hands up" Jacob says
"Flexing while my hands up" we both sing
...
"Don't let go that alcohol, don't let go of that alcohol" we both sing
...

After a while the song ends and we get there in chipotle.

We ordered and we set down and after a bit we got our food, and we started talking and laughing a lot.

So we decided to go Disney land just to have some fun with Chris.

We go in probably all of the cool rides like rollercoasters, and the Ferris-wheel , ...
We also went in the car ride which was really cool.
At the end we were a bit hungry so we went to buy shit like candy and hats and shirts. At the end of the day we went in this really high spots of Disney and we just watch the fireworks and it was truly beautiful.
I remembered when I went with my family when it was my birthday, my sister doesn't really like Disney because she think it's fake but we went anyways.

We head home by 7 pm because we were getting in-n-out burgers because we were really hungry for no reason.
Later that day when we were in the car, I told Chris and Jake that i wasn't eating vegan stuff for the whole day which was pretty good because I'm trying not to be vegan anymore.

But oh well.
