I smooth my hands over the skirt and smile, satisfied with my outfit.
I decided to make an effort today.
And it's not because of Reece. So don't even think about it.
He has nothing to do with it.
Anyways, effort as in makeup, brushing my teeth, perfume, decent shoes.
And this outfit is so cute. It's a black skirt with a pretty floral pattern and a white top with a slight V-neck.
I just added some hair spray to make hair look more poofy.
I'm proud of myself for looking decent.
I walk down the stairs and hold back a groan as I am greeted by FM.
What does she want?
She hands me a box, wrapped up in...take a wild guess...pink wrapping paper.
I force on a smile and tear off the wrapping paper.
My eyes widen.
Woah.
Its a phone.
I admire it. As someone who's mom could never afford to buy me my own phone, this is a pretty big deal.
"Thank you F...I mean, mom." I recover quickly and smile at her.
"You're welcome, hon-" Please don't say it. "-eybunches."
Sigh.
Yes I just said sigh.
That's how I feel right now.
She gave me a quick tight squeeze then stepped back.
"Love your outfit, Thee-Thee!" FM calls as she walks into the kitchen.
I groan at the nickname. It's not even an internal groan this time.
I look down at the phone and am overwhelmed with excitement.
Unlocking it, the smile quickly falls from my face.
How do I already have contacts?
I scroll through all of them.
