            So first I have to find a way to leave my house for a few weeks. Say I am going camping? Maybe. School field trip out of town? No, I have more luck with the camping idea. Who would I say I am going with? Alice? No, she hates the woods. Maybe I could convince Heather to tell my parents she is going camping, and I am invited? I could give that a try. I go to the home phone. Nobody is home so they won't hear my conversation with her. I dial her number and she answers within the first ring. "Hello? is that you Selena?", I answer quick and get to the point. "Yes, Heather I need a little favor." Her voice sounds concerning. "What is the favor? Will it get me in trouble?", I answer fast, "No, not at all I just need you to tell my parents that you are going on a camping trip, and that I am invited." She stays quiet for a moment and then finally answers. "Fine how long does this "camping trip" last?" I answer fast because my other parents are going to be home soon. "Three to four weeks I owe you big time!" She answers fast too. "Alright well I have to go goodbye." I quickly say, "Goodbye."

            This day could not get any better. Though what is going through her head? That I am going to be a runaway and just leave her hanging? That I am going to get drugs? So many variates of things probably are going through her head but they are probably to hard to describe. Tomorrow she will tell my parents about the "trip". just wait for my "parents" to arrive home from work. I cannot wait to tell them about the trip.
