Heart-strung Love

Chapter 1: Who's that guy?👤

May 25, 2014

"Kelly!" Ugh. Not again. This is the fourth time my mom has been calling me. Today is our Family Reunion Day and she has been stressing out since this morning because a lot of our family members will be here and mom is the type who wants to make an impression on people. "Yeah, mom?!", I reply. "Could you please give me a hand here?", she pleads with those furrowed brows. She was cleaning the kitchen after we had finished cooking. Oh my, I just remembered, MY FAMILY MEMBERS ARE COMING OVER. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy passing time with my families. It's just the "after-party clean-up" that is the problem. But, another reason is because of someone. Hope he doesn't come, although there is some possibility that he might.

Anyways, today is the Pickle family's (us) turn to host the reunion party. So, here I am checking things off of the To-do List:

1) Grocery shopping ✔️

2) Prepare meals ✔️

3) Clean rooms ✔️

4) Pick out an outfit

Not yet checked. As I rummage through my closet to look for an outfit, I hear a text tone. I smile when I see that it's from my BFF - well, one of my BFFs, Marcela:

Marz (her nickname in my phone): hey, r u ready 4 2night?

Me: almost, i haven't found an outfit to wear.

Marz: serious?! It's an hour before we start. Let me text Viv (our nickname for my friend, Vivian).

Me: kk, I'll c u guys later.

*Sighs* What would I do w/o my friends, and God, of course? So, instead of sitting on my bed waiting for my friends to come over, I decided to study for my End-of-Course (also known as EOC) test.
