Mistakes

Chapter 3

We rounded the corner of the  street. Her yellow house came into view as we walked down the hill with the hot August sun beating down on us. Water bottles in had and sandals making the most annoying sound possible as are feet pounding down the hill. "I guess nanas going to be late coming home" I said noticing the absences  of the silver car that was usually here by now "what's new" Ashely rolled her eyes and mubbled. I almost felt bad for her but I also envied her. She got everything thing she needed or wanted with just the the bat of an eye or a quick argument.She was the only child so she was pretty much spoiled rotten.She had everything except a actual family.. Don't get me wrong her nana and papa love her to death and so does her dad. But her mom was never really part of the picture. Granted she yelled and argued with her dad constantly and treated him like slave. The closes she ever had to family is my family. "Jesus is hotter in here then it fucking is outside" Ashely said kicking her shoes off and heading up stairs. "For real,what was nana thinking ?" I asked copying Ashely and turning on the fan as my phone buzzes signaling a text
Mom💖: what time do you plan on coming home?
"What time do you think nana will be home?" Mom texted me" added as I yelled
" How the hell should i know?" Ashely yelled back from the den "can I come over though" she asked emerging from the door way of the den and headed towards the fridge pouring us both a glass of pepsi "I'll ask" I said taking the glass and plopping onto the couch in the living room
Me: idk nanas not home yet but Amber wants to know if she can come over"
Mom💖: yeah your dad said that's fine,do you need a ride?
"Mom said you could come over,should I tell her to pick us up in an hour?" I asked "yea I'll get my stuff" Ashely replied already half way down the hallway
"Okay" I said hoping up from the couch following her back towards her bedroom to pack her stuff. stoping out in the hall to finish my text.
Me: yea in like an hour
Mom: alright see you girls soon
"Yea mom said she can pick us up" I told her as I entered her room that was unbearably hot and always smelled like a mix of perfumes and nail polish with her pink curtains ripped and clothes all over as usually with random things scattered along her dresser

Finally an hour later we left a note for nana and headed out the door and climbed into my car. This is family I thought to myself as I rolled down my window and cruised out of the driveway and towards home.
