As we passed the "You Are Now Leaving New York." Sign, my mom starts talking to me about Simon.
"So.... How's Simon doing?"
"Mom, I told you. He's not my friend anymore. You know what happened last month. I can't forgive him."
"Just because he almost killed Jace doesn't mean it was on purpose."
"It was on purpose. You know that. You were there. You're telling me that Simon walked into the house, with a knife so help me, and "accidentally" drops the knife over Jace's head"
"No.... Yeah, that's pretty bad."
"Anyway,"
The car returns to silence. I turn on the radio. Ugh. 80s music. I'm gonna turn it off now...
"Oh! I love this song!"
Crap. Well, I guess I'm listening to this for the rest of the ride.
I open up my book. Deep and dark and dangerous. One of my favorite books. I read it in 5th grade and it's been one of my favorite books since.
We finally reach our destination. Sunny California! Wow. My mom knows me so well. If I haven't mentioned yet, I love the beach. All of the wild life and sun just makes me feel so good. I hop out of the car and head for our beach house.
