"thats ma girl ba bum bum bum bum" i sig along

i love Saturdays...it gives me time to practice arguing with my parents...is it just me or is it a parents #1 priority to ruin their kids weekends with work and chores and stuff...and also "family bonding time" you know playing board games and stuff or as i like to say bored games.

"Roxxane Opera Andrews" my mom yells from down stairs...and yes my middle name is Opera...it was my Dads idea

"what did i do this time" i ask ready for untrue facts about the chores i was not given to do.

"surprisingly nothing...but you got mail i think its your thing from YouTube" she says

i made a YouTube channel a coupe of years ago and today is our 5 year anniversary...i signed up for motorization which means YouTube can pay me but its just pocket money...nothing much

"thanks mom" i say giving her a kiss on the cheek

It was my pay cheque it had the GoogleAdSense thingy on it i never really check how much is inside so i just pop it in a jar with the others. And then i heard it...

"Roxxane can I speak to you for a second" my sister Vanessa says i mentally face palm myself and go to my room...yep she's staying with me so is my cousin...in my bed.

i gotta admit they annoy the hell out of me...but i love them to bits...does that make sense..yeah it makes sense

"hello sister dear what pray tell would you like to talk about" i say with a sweet smile

"i just wanted to chat with my little sister" she says

"so-its raining tacos from out of the sky" my phone cuts me off

i check the caller ID and..its.... "DANIEL"

"what about Daniel" my Vanessa asks

"no..um...he's the one calling me" i say

"well answer it we both know you like him" she say smirking

i roll my eyes and answer the phone

"Damn Daniel its the beginning of the Christmas holidays and your already asking me to hide a dead body for you" i say smiling into the phone.

"yeah the cops at my front door i was hoping you could lend me your shotgun" he says with a faint chuckle

"so why are you calling me, if its to hang out then you know I'm on my way to the airport right" i say in a duh tone

"yeah i know i just wanted to hear your voice before i move" he says in a sad tone

"your moving...where?" i ask my voice laced with concern

"25 Smithford Cresent" he replies

"thats across the road from my house" i say confused

"exactly" he says

"well-Roxxane we're leaving now" my mom cuts me off

"well gotta go see when school opens"

"see ya"
