A Thousand Mistakes

Chapter Six

Thank God it was spring break. I wasn't in the mood to do anything. For the past two weeks all I did was lay in bed and watch movies eating pizza. My mom thought there something wrong with me. I told her it was nothing. Of course something was really wrong but she didn't have to know about it. I didn't tell her about it from the beginning so why should I start now. I felt depressed.  I haven't talked to anyone. Anabell has been texting me nonstop so I turned off my phone. I didn't want to talk to anyone.  My mom insisted that staying in my room wasnt healthy and I needed to get out.

Suddenly she walked in my room and turned off the TV.

"What did you to that for?"

" You need to get out of this room"

"I don't need to do anything I don't want to"

She was mad because before I knew it I was showered and clothed and out sitting in the car. She got in and sighed out of frustration. Outside was to bright and I began to get a headache.

"Where are we going"

"Its a surprise"

"Whatever"

We finally stopped at our destination. It was the mall.

"Mom this isn't really a surprise to me"

"No but what your getting is"

We walked in and went to the store closest to us. Which was a Macy's. We looked around. I seen some cute clothes but I don't think any of them would look cute on me.

"So my surprise is clothes?"

"No unless you want something from here"

"Okay I do"

"Then look around and pick whatever you want"

"Okay"

I ended up getting a coral pink dress, a pair of matching sandels and some jewelry. We stopped for lunch and then I seen him. Zayn he was here right now. No this couldn't be. I asked mom to get up and go look around but it was to late he noticed me. He walked up to me but I acted like I didn't notice him.

"Emily can you please talk to me?"

"We don't have anything to talk about"

"We have tons to talk about"

"Like what"

"Can I make it up to you?"

"How are you going to do that?"

"Let me take you on a date"

I almost forgot my mom was standing right there. She just stared at us confused, I would have to explain this to her.

"I'll let you take me out but its not a date"

"Okay thank you so much your not going to regret this. I'll meet you at your house at 8:00pm sharp Friday."

I wrote down my address and phone number so he could get a hold of me.

"Okay bye"

"Bye"

"Mom I can explain."

"Okay"

Well here went nothing.

"Well he was a new kid at our school I have him for pe and he asked me to hang out with him at lunch I accepted and he never showed up. Supposably he had a docters appointment that he forgot about and he didn't tell me so I thought he stood me up. And now he's trying to make it up to me"

She stayed quite for a minute trying to comprehend what I had just said then finally spoke.

" Well I think you should go with it if he's going through all this trouble just to make it up to you."

"I know mom. Can we go shop for something for me to wear at my 'date'".

"Yeah let's go"

Later that night

We got McDonald's on the way home. I was exhausted. After we got done eating I went up to my room threw my shopping bags on a chair and went to bed.
