"Lacey! I need a favor!" My mom yells from the kitchen.
"Yes, my beautiful loving mother" I say while coming down the stairs.
"I need you to run to Walmart to go get me some tomatoes, lettuce, and some spices... you know what just go to Walmart I'll send a message of what I need." She says as she grabs her phone and starts typing. "Love go look in my purse and get the credit card"
"Yes ma'am" I start to go to her room my sister Alyssa stops me.
"Lacey, can I go with you to the store?
"Yes you can, go get your shoes and your teddy and lets head out"
"YAY! Thank you!" She runs to her room and goes to get her stuff, as I grab the card.
"Okay Lyssa, lets go."
I grab her hand and grab the keys from the bar and heads out to the car. I put Lyssa in and buckles her up. I get in and starts to drive to Walmart.
"Can I get some candy? asks as we drive up in the parking lot.
"Yes you may, you know how to unbuckle yourself?"
" Yep yep"
I get out the car and goes to her side and helps her out the car. We start to walk in and I start getting what my mom tells me to get.
"What kind of candy you want Lyssa?"
"Uhh.." she starts looking around and grabs a KitKat and some chips
As I'm paying for the stuff someone starts putting my stuff in the bag
"Oh no it's okay I got it." As I look up, theres this, cute boy.. I all of a sudden stop and stare, and Lyssa pokes me,
"Not good to stare..."
"Oh uh.. I'm sorry.."
"No it's okay, I can help." As he smiles and picks up the bags.
"Well you can show me your way to the car."
"Yea.. um.. lets go."
"Wait!" Lyssa yells.
"I want uppie.." she starts stretching her arms out for me.
I pick her up and kisses her on her forehead. We start walking to the car
"So what's your name?" He asks while looking at me.
"Lacey."
"Well I'm Corey. Nice to meet you beautiful."
"Nice to meet you to."
"Is that your daughter?"
"Oh, no this is my little sister"
"Oh well y'all look exactly alike. Im sorry"
"It's okay"
I unlock the car
"Just put the bags in the back."
"Okay." He starts to put the bags in the car. I buckle my sister up in her seat.
As he starts to walk away, he pauses then pats his pockets like her forgot something.
"Oh yea uh. I kinda forgot something."
"What you forgot?"
"Your number."
I giggle a little. "Give me your phone boy"
He hands me his phone and I put my number
"I'm calling you tonight beautiful"
"Okay Corey" I smile and gets in the car and drives off
Corey... He was on my mind the whole ride home.
I grab the stuff including my sister. I go in the house and set the keys back on the bar.
"Mom here's your stuff."
"Thank you, I'll call you down when dinner is ready."
"Okay mom." I go upstairs and just lay there.
Corey...
