The Perfect Gift

Chapter 5: The Search

Soon after a few minutes Giselle came to my house.

"So where do I start?" Said Giselle.

"Any where and everywhere I need to get my money from up stairs and I will leave the door locked since my parents are coming back. Okay?"I said.

"Fine. But if your parents are not happy that I am here that will be on you."

"Deal." I said.

After agreeing, I went up stairs to my room to find any money.

Where is the money!

Then I found it in my night desk bottom drawer.

Finally! Now let's see how much I have....SEVEN DOLLARS WHAT AM I GOING TO BUY WITH THAT MUCH MONEY!!!!!

I tried to not let anger take over me. I took a deep breath to look calm when I came back down stairs. Giselle never noticed since she was really busy with all the work she had to do. So I took that to my advantage and left.

When I arrived to the store I tried at all costs to avoid that cashier. You would not believe what I did...I tried to find anything that will fit my sister's interest but there was nothing... Then I had an idea.

BINGO! Okay I could buy her a few balloons and maybe a chocolate bar...but that won't be the PERFECT gift...

Then I looked back at my money.

It is what I have to work with....I am the world's worst sister.

The whole entire time I was at the store I was crying. I felt so guilty....and mad that I could not give my sister a little something in return from all the....perfect gifts she gave me.

By the time I got home it was 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

One more hour until the party starts. I need to hide all this from my mom.

I ran to my room and put my not perfect gift for Emelee in there and ran back down stairs to help Giselle with the finishing touches for the decorations, since she was almost done.

"You owe me for all of this." Giselle said after we we're done.

"Can we talk about this later. I have a busy schedule and I had a really bad day so far." I said with a little anger.

"Woah. Okay fine I will leave this for another day but I need to go either way." She said.

"Thanks. And bye." I said in return.

Then she left. I looked back at the decorations and just sighed. Hopefully everything will start to move smoothly from this point forward.
