Autumn

"Ow." My dad squinting his eye

"Ow."

"Don't be so rough." He groans in pain

"Dad maybe if you stopped moving it wouldn't hurt as much. By the way you owe me gummy ." Informing him

"What you think money grows from trees?"

"Well paper is from trees, so yes money does grow on trees."

Wiping off the last bit of eyeliner from his eyes.

"There."

"I'm done."

He gets off the chair looking at his face like never before.

"Oh my god!" He squeals jumping up and down

"Wow dad it's like you never seen your face." Crossing my arms

"Thank you so so much Autumn you are the best." He engulfs into a hug

My mom clears her throat as I release myself from his arms.

"What about me?" She stomps her foot on the floor

"Oh yeah you too honey." My dad not even paying attention

"Ethan." She warns angrily

"Ye-eah." He stutters

"You are sleeping on the coach again or better yet in the dog house." She leaves without another word

Later...

"Emma please forgive me." My dad begs on the floor

"I can't have this guilt inside me, I need my Gummy Bear Princess to help me."

"And if I do?"

"I will give you a life supply of gummy bears." My dad standing up

"Deal, but if you break this deal you will sleep on the couch for a week." Mom threatens

Dad just nods, following her like a long lost puppy.
