Later on that day Shelby and Abrielle came over and they hugged me and asked if I was okay then I cried in their arms my anger at myself and guilt and sadness over powering their emotion. I barely felt what they were feeling. Their thoughts were full of sadness for me and my mom. After about ten minutes of crying Shelby goes to make all of us a sandwich and asked mom if she wanted one to. "Sure. Why not?" mom replied. "So how are things holding up with your mom?" Abe asked. "She never came out of her room since the funeral until today" I replied. "Why did she come out?" he asked again. "I got her some chocolate, a card, and her favorite flowers. I knocked on the door then she came out." I answered. Still having the picture of moms tear stained face, puffy eyes from lack of sleep, and red nose. I can't stand to see her like that. I can't stand seeing anybody like that. "Well that was nice of her. Maybe you can give me some advise on how to get a man soon" he said while laughing softly. I had to laugh. I mean Abe can't help himself. "Sure, maybe I can help you soon" I say while giving him a small peck on the cheek knowing he didn't mind that. "Look if you a 'fabulous' shoulder to cry on I'll be here. he said while putting emphasis on the "fabulous".
After Shelby made the wonderful honey and peanut butter sandwiches and we ate them I asked if anything new was going on. "Well there is Adriel and her stupid rude comments about your dad's death" I tighten up by just hearing that "nothing else is really new" Shelby says. "Girl! You don't need to be thinking about that b*tch. You are FABULOUS and you don't need her" he paused "you have us. Come with me" he said while getting up and reaching his hand out as if to say " get up". I grab his hand and he helps me off the floor. "Where are we going?" I asked in curiosity. "To the mall of course! Where else would we go?" he said with excitement in his voice. "But what about my mom?" I ask looking up to the stairs. "Go tell her that we are going to the mall" he replied. I knock. "Yes?" I hear her say. "Mom is it okay if Abe, Shelby, and I go to the mall?" I ask through her door. "Yes it's fine, just be careful... I love you Elizabeth" She says. "Thanks mom. I love you to" I say while heading to my room where Abe and Shelby are waiting. "She said I can" I say while coming through the door. "Good and I have just the outfit for you to wear" Abe says. I have to hand it to the guy, he can throw together something that looks like it would cost a fortune with nothing. "Thanks" I say looking at the outfit he put together that is laying on my messy bed. I walk over to the clothes. It is my white shirt with angle wings on the back, my white skinny jeans, and my black converse boots.
I finally get dressed and we head to the mall. We finally get to the mall and find a parking space. "Here we are" Abe says with a hint of excitement in his voice. Abe loved coming to the mall. "May I ask what we will be doing in the mall? I have no money" I say looking over at Abe. "Don't mind with the money. My dad, being himself, gave me $500 so I think that money is covered" Abe said looking over at me. Abe's dad was a body guard for the President of the United States. We didn't see him much. "Okay then" I say while looking at Abe. "Lets go"
We get to the mall and Abe leads the way with Shelby on his left side and I on his right. Abe was wearing a light blue cotton t-shirt, a pair of faded jeans, and some boots with his hair all poofy like it always is covered in hairspray while Shelby had a pink shirt with a red heart on the right upper side of the shirt and I was wearing what Abe picked out with my long black hair lose and my bangs in my face how they always are. "Where to?" In ask. "Lets go to Maceys" he says pointing over to the big indoor store about 300 feet infront of us. "Okay. Lets go" I say sprinting over their backwards. "ELIZABETH!" Shelby yells. I fall waiting for the pain of my head hitting the hard floor. Nothing. I then realize someone had caught me. I open my eyes. It was Jake. He had what looked like black angle wings coming from his back and he was shirtless.
Shelby and Abe were running towards me. Jake at my side. I blink. He's gone. What the heck?! where did he go? "Oh my gosh! Are you okay, Lizzie?" Abe says with fear on his face. "I'm Fine... Didn't you see him catch me?" I ask. "Who catch you?" Shelby asked. "Jake" I say " He caught me. Didn't you see him?" Abe and Shelby looked at each other. "No he didn't Lizzie you fell. No one caught you" Shelby said. "I-uhh-I must have been seeing stuff. He's been on my mind lately" I say while looking back at the memory of him with, with those beautiful wings. "Do we need to take you to a doctor?" Abe asks. "No, I'm fine" I say while standing up. "Okay then. If you start getting dizzy we will leave" Abe said while I start whipping off my jeans. We all then head to Macys.
