Just My Luck

Part 2

"Izzie,dress up! We have to go for shopping.First we're going to Starbucksto have some coffee and then we'll go buy your school stuff and clothes" mum said as she opened my bedroom's window and sunlight bursted in.

"Oh come on...close that!What hour is it anyway??"She seemed angry and wearing this awful black dress and black slippers made her look funny too.She turned on my radio and opened my bathroom's door as she put on my favorite perfume.

"I said stand up...!Oh...and you'd better enjoy your freedom these last 5 days because this radio is going to dissapear from your room this Sunday" She said as she walked down the stairs to make breakfast.I stood up slowly as I streched and walked to my bathroom to wash my teeth.

"Great!"I thought to myself as I looked in the mirror.Here we go again,first year in high school,me being a mess.My blue eyes seemed so bored and my skin was as white as paper.My hair went down my cheeks and in the back side of my head they looked like a bird house!...I wore a green t-shirt,a pair of jeans and sneakers,made my hair a classic ponytail and went downstairs.My sister,Ness was sitting at the table eating pancakes with nutella drinking a huge glass of juice.

"Hellooo little one...are you ready for shopping?"She said as she stood up and run all around me with playfulness.She was at the last year of high school and one of the "famous" kids.I really adore her!How could she be SO perfect?Many times I'm looking at her and I think that I must have been adopted...!She is thin and tall with long blond hair and beautiful green-blue eyes.Yeap...now that I think about it again..naaah I must have been adopted!

"Your creal are ready honey.." My mum said as she finished the last of her homemade coffee.

"I'll be waiting outside please don't be late!"

"Ok mum I'm coming"I said as I threw a nasty look at my sister.

"You little lady are not that ecstatic that you're been a high school kid huh?...Please just promise me that you won't buy any stupid clothes with teddy bears...and stop acting like that!"Ness said as she pointed at the black circles under my eyes and my messy ponytail...

"Ok mrs good looking queen!Don't forget to walk the doggie!"I said ironically as I dragged my handbag and walked out to the garden.

I sat in the front place and put my seatbelt on.

"First stop: STARBUCKS COFFEE!"My mum yelled enthusiastically.She turned on the radio and Barry White's Let the music play was on the headset!...My mum started singing along as she had that stupid face smiling all around...It's me or my family is crazy.This morning she came angry.But now...(and it is still morning) she is happy."Whatever"I thought.

"I would like to order two mocca cookie crumbles"I said with a stupid kind smile to the waitress.As I was waiting I realized that I had forgoten soya milk...oh gosh noooope..."I'm sorry I did a mistake...it's two mocca cookie crumble with soy milk"I said a bit late I guess as the waitress was giving me the two coffees.

"Oh...."She said and glared angrily at me.

Hereee wweee go...I thought.

After spending 7 hours in shops my mum got again her angry face back."I swear Isabelle...I won't have to go for shopping with you again!You had me waiting for 2 hours to decide over a school bag!" She said as she pulled in our garden garage. I silently took some of the most precious bags I needed to open (come on...of course the ones with the clothes!) and went quickly upstairs to my bedroom.

I placed carefully my new clothes in the closet and my sister came quickly in like a thunder jumping on my bed.

"Well...you know that Jess and I have a 6 months anniversary this weekend..."

"And?..."I said with a nasty tone.

"Well...we are going to his place for the weekend and I need you to cover me up to mum and dad" She said with a smile.

"Ness there is no way I'm doing this!Everytime something bad happens it's always me the one who takes the blame you know it!"I said rejecting her proposal.

"Oh izzieee pleeaaase..."

"Please" She said again with that puppy face...

"I'll think about it ness,I don't know" Ness met Jessie at the first class of junior high.They're together since then but they are officially together the last six months.You know...much kissing stuff and gifts and hearts...yaaak.My mum and I like to play with their names.It's funny...Ness and Jess.Their normal names are Jessie and Vanessa but really,if they want to write something like Ness and Jess on their wedding invitations it would be catchy!...
