Escape from Tragedy

Chapter 41: College

It's the day before I start my last semester of college and I am so nervous but excited at the same time. It's bitter sweet, my mom and I had this little tradition, we would go shopping, get school supplies, do lunch and then come home and binge watch our favorite show. Then the next day we would wake up super early and my mom and dad had to drop me off on the first day of school....even college. Which I didn't mind, it was our tradition... it's sad that this last year it won't happen but they will be with me when I go....

"So what do you want to do today? It's only four o'clock" Amilia said coming into the living room and sitting down.

"I need to go buy some school supplies and maybe a book bag" I told her.

"Well let's go, I know this cute store that has supplies for like everything" Amilia said getting up.

"Okay, let me go get my shoes and purse" I told her as I started walking towards the spiral staircase.

I grabbed my nude leather Steve Madden slip on shoes and my Saint Laurent tote purse that Sophia gave to me when I first got here. I literally dumped whatever I had in my Prada purse into this one and is ready to go. I just have on a pair leggings, a oversized thin sweater, leather jacket, a blanket scarf, my slip on shoes and purse. My hair is in a high ponytail and no makeup.

When I came down the stairs Amilia is putting on her black bomber jacket.

"Ready?" I asked her.

"Ready" she said as she opened the door.

Amilia got us a taxi and we started our journey to this store she mentioned earlier.

"Are you excited for tomorrow?" Amilia asked.

"Yeah, this semester will go by fast" I told her.

"I always felt like second semester went faster than first semester"

"Agree, its cause of spring break and then they just give you random days off" I told her completely agreeing with her.

"So your taking three classes?"

"Yeah I have three left and then I am done. They are real easy ones" I told her.

We pulled up the store and it looks so cute. We quickly went in and oh my gosh I'm in love. It's like stationary heaven, if I do say so myself. I grabbed a little basket and started picking up stuff. I found three thick copper gold and powder pink notebooks, some pens, pencils, highlighters, sticky notes, three folders and a planner. I had to strict my self from going crazy in this store and buying almost everything. I had to keep reminding myself to just buy what I need and not what I want. I have to save money due to school.

"I called my driver he should be here soon" Amilia told me as we looked at the book bags.

I nodded "okay, I don't see anything I like.... I'll just keep looking" I told her not upset that I didn't find a book bag.

"I think I might have one you can use, if you want" Amilia told me as we started walking to the front of the store to cheek out.

"Yeah, let me see it when we get home... what are we doing for dinner?" I asked her.

"Sophia is picking up Chinese, everyone is coming over" She told me as we waited in line.

"Oh my gosh!! Your dating Liam Easton! Can I get a picture?!" This girl that stood in front of us asked.

I smiled "yeah" I told her as I put my basket down. She asked Amilia to take the picture, we posed for the picture and it came out cute.

"So it's true your dating Liam Easton?" She asked me.
