Working
Late Today :(
-Mom
I see that text as soon as I walk into my house. She's been working none stop since its two weeks before Valentine's Day. I quickly get dressed in my pajamas, grab the chocolate Jerry gave me and run upstairs.
*THUD*
I grab a jacket and the bag of chocolate. Easily, I slide open my window and climb out onto the roof. I smile at the sight of my best friend Charlie. "How was your mom's house?" I ask. "It was good." I laugh, "Just good?" "Yeah" He says. "Well I got you something from the factory." "Ok show me!" He says. I pull out the chocolate that has been behind my back and give it to Charlie. He shoves a few in his mouth. "Bacon?" He asks. "Yup. Jerry made this one for Valentine's Day." I tell him. "Speaking of Valentine's Day." He says. Charlie pulls out a beautiful necklace that has my name printed on it In cursive writing. "I love it Charlie!" I say. He shrugs it off. But even though it's dark, I can tell he's smiling. I tell Charlie that I'm going to sleep and that is just what I do.
