~ If I Stay~

Chapter 20

" Todays the day." I thought to myself.

Today was when I got to go shopping with my grandma, and sister.

At about 3 we decided to drive to "Easton". Which was a huge mall in Columbus.

We drove about 15 minutes before we arrived at the parking lot which we would park and then walk around the area.

Opening the door, my feet in my shoes, hit the pavement, and I knew today would be fun.

As we were walking, I saw a justice, and we decided we would go inside.

"Yes!" I shouted about every secound, cause I was so excited about all the clothes, and things that were in the store.

I grabbed a few pairs of shorts, size 10-12 and a few shirts, and a bathing suit, and headed to where the changing rooms were.

After spending half my time trying to get undressed, I picked up the bathing suit first. Which had blue pockadots, on a blue background, and a fringed skirt like thing on bottom.

Not even turning to see myself in the mirror, I walked out with the curtain open, to find my grandma and sister sitting there on a round pink coushin like thing.

" soo...?" I said to them. Waiting for them to say something.

"It looks good." They said as I re-entered the

dresing room.

Finding my way out of the clothing was a small problem since there was a few bottons I needed uncliped but I managed.

Rolling the bathing suit into a small ball, I threw it over the opening in the top, and slipped on the pair of jeans with the holes I had picked out.

Each time I threw a pair over and changed into the next item.

Once I was all done with trying things on, we got to the register and waited behind a line of people to check out.

As I waited excitedly, I saw a perfume in a clear bottle with a blue bow tied around the rim on top.

" Come smell it." I said to Madison.

" Okay." She replied back as her older 12 year old self came walking over.

" ooohh." I said As I inhaled the smell of wonderfulness. I couldn't even explain the smell but it was something I needed to have.

" Can I get it?" I asked grandma as I slid it across the marble counter top.

"sure." She responded back as we purchased all of our items.

finished and done we trudged our way back to the car, and headed home.

" Wake up." Grandmas voice came out as she shook my body.

I must've fallen asleep on the way home.

popping the trunk I grabbed my bags out of the car, kissed grandma goodnight, and headed to my bedroom downstairs.

" I wonder what tomarrow brings?" I thought to myself. " Or better yet the week after the next 3 weeks and so on."

Whats in three weeks you ask yourself?

School.
