The Alpha Licked My Face?!

(2) A little café.

As I drove to town I smiled to myself. I just found an amazing cafe with amazing food and an amazing little old lady called Joyce. How did I become so lucky on my first few hours here?

Even as I smiled a few things were bugging me.

1: Who is Suzie?

2: Why did John Reeves say he couldn't stay away?

3: How had my mother had her heart broken too many times?

It doesn't make any sense what so ever.

I'll ask mum about it soon but not yet. I'll also ask her about my... condition...

I walked into the supermarket and was met with the smell of fresh fruits and vegetables. I decided to get the following:

Lettuce

Tomatoes

Cucumber

Apples

Oranges

Mango's

So there's stuff for sandwiches and for healthy snacking. I went to the meat section and got some chicken breast and some honey-cured bacon (momma loves her bacon). I got some grain bread for sandwiches and some white bread for toast.

I was walking to get some low-fat milk when I saw some dude staring at me. Or at least I think it was me. It could have been the lady behind me. Nope definitely me.

Should I stare back at him and make him uncomfortable or keep walking.

Stare at him! Stare at him! Stare at him!

Geez that voice needs to shut the HELL up. I mean, oh my gawd. It doesn't have be so loud!

I kept shopping and getting everything we need plus a few extras like Holly's baby bel cheese and my Nutella.

Ahhhh my Nutella.

When I was finished shopping I went to the craft store a few blocks down and bought some faber-castel sketching pencils and sketch books. I love drawing by the way. I have a few sketch books absolutely filled to the brim with my drawings. It one of my happy places.

I took everything home and started putting the groceries in the fridge and the cupboards. I see mum had already taken the responsibility of decorating the living room, kitchen and dining room.

I guess I should do that with my room.

4 1/2 hours later

There everything is put away and done. My computer is set up and I have put Harrod on my bed. Yes I still sleep with a teddy. Got a problem with that!!

Didn't think so.

It's 1/4 to eight and mum is still out looking for a part time job (she doesn't need it she just does it to keep herself busy). I start cooking chicken stir fry for me and Holly who is reading a book peacefully on the couch in the living room. I love how I have a sister that would rather bury her nose in a book than play on electronics. When I was at the craft store I also bout her some pencils and a sketch book. I was planning on writing on the first page but decided against it. I finished cooking dinner and called Holly up to have something to eat before she went to bed.

Holly comes rushing up to the table and digs into her food. Chicken stir fry is her favorite. When she was finished I said to her

"I got you a present while I was out today"

Her eyes lit up like the 4th of July. She likes presents more than Nutella. Yeah that's how much she loves them.

"Really?"

"Yup I'll go get it, stay here"

"Okay"

I went up into my room and brought out the light blue sketch book and pencils and brought them down to where Holly was.

"Close your eyes and hold out your hands. No peaking though" she smiled at that.

"Aaaand open 'em"

It took her a second to figure out what they were. But when she did she put them on the bench and hugged me.

"I love you sissy"

"Love you too Honey-Bear, more than you'll ever know".

I'm sorry it's short but this felt like the sweetest way possible to end a chapter. Another chapter is underway it should be published by Monday next week. If it's not come to my house and smack me over the head. Because I was lazy.

I haven't decided a song for this chapter but oh well.

Goodbye my fellow animals
