Maria is the vocalist for In This Moment in case for those who don't know
"Wake up sleepy head, we're going to Grandmother Maria's" My brother Ian said to me, ripping the covers off my bed. I got dressed into a black dress with a white collar, knee high socks, and black boots. I put my hair into braids, making myself look like a knock off Wednesday Addams.
The drive was gruesome, the summer heat was making all of us cranky. Tensions were soon thick in the air. I kept my ear buds in my ears, ignoring the squabble. "Were here!'' My father Davion said. We all got out of the car.
I saw my grandmother Maria walk out, she was wearing a red and black dressed that looked skin tight. I don't know how she can move in it! She hugged us all and led us to the backyard. We all started to eat.
It was cool being her granddaughter, it definitely got me some friends, but some were so fake it was ridiculous. It normally isn't mentioned in conversation, only if someone says something about In This Moment. It's funny to see some of the people's reactions. Most don't believe me, so I show them pictures of her holding me as a child.
If they still don't believe me, then I show them some more pictures until they believe me. It might be annoying to some people, but people can believe what they want. It's their choice anyway.
Me and grandma Maria talked for a bit, mostly about school. I was graduating this year, and still don't know what I'm doing. I'm considering taking a gap year, but I'm still not entirely sure. My family doesn't necessarily agree with me on this. They probably want me to be just like Ian, the smarter one
I'm not really jealous, but sometimes I felt pressure to be better. Being the nerd was, and never will, be my thing. That's his job, maybe that's why he's more accepted, because he actually knows what he wants in life. I try not to let it get to me. It's sad that I'm good at hiding me emotions. Either I'm good at it or they don't say anything.
It was now dusk, the sky beautiful shades of light probably pink, orange, and blues and purples. We were eating dessert in silence. We then said our goodbyes. But I saw something unsettling.
There was a shadow in the trees.
