Heart Sick

Chapter 3

I walked into the shabby apartment in a dodgy street. It was what I wanted. I wanted to make it mine. When my mum left she left a fortune to me. I was saving for this, and now that I have it, I need to use it.

I put my bags away and everything into the one bedroom, which was quite big considering it was rundown. I grabbed my phone and my wallet and called a taxi once again.

I asked the man to take me to the nearest mall.

Once we got there I went to a place kind of like Wal-Mart in America, I went to the U.S when I was 15 with my Aunt. I looked around for decorations. Today I was just gonna spend as much as I could. I grabbed a trolley and looked around. I grabbed three lots of white fairy lights, 5 cushions for the couch, a wall art with a triangle and the galaxy behind it, I found a black dreamcatcher that I had to have, I put it in. I went to the checkout. It all equaled to $236.65. I Still had plenty more, i went to the supermarket and bought more then enough for the week. I had alot to carry so I called a taxi and gave him my home address. I told him to wait outside, I ddropped everything off and went back.

"Take me to supre" I said, I need new clothes.

We got there and I paid him the fare. I wanted to change up my style a bit. I still wanted to look edgy but a bit softer.

I tryed on a black leather crop top, a Lace white skirt, A purple bandeau, ripped black high waisted shorts and a fluffy white sweater. I got all of them and went to the counter

"Hey!" The counter lady said enthusiastically. She looked like me only happier. She had a short black hair and Dark red lipstick.

"Hey" I answered

" Are you new here?" She asked, probably guessing from me trying to figure out the money and my accent.

"Yeah I just moved here from the U.K" I laughed

"Here's my number if you need anything, at least you know someone, maybe we could be friends" She smiled at me

"Yeah I would like that" I smiled back, I didn't smile genuinely though, bit I would love to hang out with her. She gave me my things and I left. I wonder if I should text her? It was already 5:30 so I went back to the store

"Hey when do you finish?" I asked

"Like now, do you want a ride home?" she asked

"Yeah, Please" I laughed, smiling.

She closes the store and we make our way to her car. See I'm not fully unsociable.

We get into her car and start driving. "My names Brooke by the way"

Thanks god the days over.
