I sat up in my bed when the bright sunshine could no longer be ignored. My hand made its way to my face and I absentmindedly touched my face. Luke and I had kissed the night away. Since my parents were home when we returned, I had to sneak him up to my room. We had spent hours talking, kissing, and etc. When midnight hit, Luke used my childhood fire escape rope to depart. I had enjoyed our date and the time afterwards. I got out of bed refreshed and made my way to the bathroom. Once I was clean, I picked out the day’s attire. A simple blue button down with white capris would do.
Listening to the radio, I made myself a bowl of cereal. When my favorite song came on I couldn’t help dancing. Pop music was my guilty pleasure. While I loved rap, hip hop and R&B, I couldn’t resist listening to Pop when I was alone. I danced across the kitchen as the songs blurred together. I was the happiest I’d ever been. I hit spins and splits and pretended I was a performer on stage.
“You sure you want to be a veterinarian. You could choreograph the next big video!” My father’s deep rough voice filled the room and I stopped in the middle of spinning causing my momentum to knock me down. “Hi, dad.” I stood up dusting myself off. I made my way to the radio and turned it off.
“You must be having a great summer! You haven’t danced through the house in years.” My dad chuckled at my dancing. I blushed and moved back to my cereal which was now soggy.
“So what’s up dad?” I said eating the soggy cereal. I didn’t mind it being soggy, it just reminded me of baby food. “Today’s our daddy daughter day and we have 2 hours til I have to be back at work.” I looked toward the clock and noticed it was almost 11am. I really wanted to find out how Luke’s day was going, but I always enjoyed my dad’s company when he wasn’t being an over protective parent.
“So what are we going to do?!” Excitement took over as memories of our other days flooded my thoughts. “It’s a surprise. Now grab whatever you need so we can head out.” I ran to my room and scooped up my purse and phone.
Once in the car, my dad popped in our CD. Each year we made a CD composed of our favorite songs. It was hard to pick my top 9 favorite songs but once I did, my dad made the CD alternating between our favorite songs. Mines, then his, then mines…This went on as we rode. The CD was half way done playing by the time we arrived at the gate. My dad paid, receiving a mysterious bag, then we were allowed to enter the gate. Green vines had grown over a lot of the buildings we past and it seemed as if no one cut the grass around the area. I couldn’t wait to find out what kind of place we were visiting.
