"Melanie can you come in my office for a second", called my father

"Okay Melanie"

"Since you don't have much stuff aside from decor and a few clothes that your brother thought you might like....", he paused

So my brothers still think I like pink do they? Well to be honest I never liked that colour, but then I wanted to blend in with the girls when I was at kindergarten. That's how I learned to like it but it isn't my favourite anymore.

I really love mint green and violet or purple. Whatever you guys want to call it, every time my eyes lay on something purple, my heart just screams. While mint green just bring me life.

"So that's why I'm sending Damien to the mall with you"

"Here is 10,000 dollar", he said

"10,000 dollars!!!!", I said in shock

"Okay here is 100,000 dollars", he added

"100,000 dollars!!!" I screamed again in so much shock.

"Here fine 500,000 dollars", he said trying to maintain calm yet I was still shocked

"500-", yet I was cut off again, why are people not letting me finish my statements or sentences.

"Okay here is 700,000 dollars and that's final", he said impatiently

And that's how I walked off my father's office with 700,000 dollars in my hands, with the most shocked and grateful expression in my face.

And it suddenly drew to me again, what am I supposed to do with 700,000 dollar.

"WAIT WHAT AM I EVEN SUPPOSE TO BUY WITH 700,000 DOLLARS", I yelled from across the house

"Everything dear!", yelled Charlotte from the living room

"BUT I DON'T NEED EVERYTHING, I ONLY NEED CLOTHES!", I yelled to anyone listen.

"I WAS SUPPOSE TO ONLY BUY CLOTHES NOT THE WHOLE MALL!!!", I screamed while waving my arms in panic, I don't know why I am panicking but okay. Luckily my dad's office was sound proof in and out.

I heard my two brother's laugh, and saw the ghost smile on the other two. While I just waved my arms around more as if they were made of rubber.

"That is the weirdest someone would say if someone gave them 700,000", said Cayden, smiling at my expression of horror.

I survived with mostly 50 dollars per month, sometimes even 70 when I was lucky, even if this was my old life, it's still very new to me.

I went outside the house to see Damien's car parked in the drive way.

"Why do we need to go shopping at the mall?", I whined like a kid who was not given his ice cream.

"To get you some new clothes, cause I presume you don't like your old clothes, and I bet they still fit you, am I right?" He asked theoretically.
