It Was August 13th 2008. I was playing with my younger brother Jimmy in the front lawn, mother made me every saturday before i could go hang out with my friends. I didn't mind he was only 6 while i was 15, but it gave me something to do rather than be bored and watch TV re-runs.
"Sarah! Can we throw the frisbe now?" Jimmy whines from across the lawn. I nod and I go to the garage to grab the frisbe. As i hear a snap from behind me i jolt my head around to see what was going on. It was nothing just Jimmy lying in the grass waiting for me to come to play. I reach up and grab the frisbe from the box and return back to Jimmy. He smiles as i throw him the frisbe. He seemed to be enjoying it. We continued for maybe 20 minutes before Mother had came outside to tell us to come in.
"Sarah, Julie's on the other end of the phone." Mother hands me the phone as i walk up the patio stairs to snatch up the phone from my mothers hand in the nicest way i possibly can.
"Hello?" I ask as i recieve the phone. I watch my brother run inside the house behind my mom as i wait for a responce.
"Its 4" She says sarcastically seeming pretty off.
"Yes, I know. I'll be there shortly." As i said with no expression what so ever. This was how all our conversations were, she called to see if i could still hang out. I walked inside to go get changed when as soon as i entered i heard a beeping. I look around and then quickly realise that i forgot to hang up the phone, i do so as quick as possible.
"Same old, same old?" My mother looks over at me and asks. She knew the drill, i get the call from Julie, I walk 5 minutes to her house, we go to the mall for a couple hours and the i walk with her to her house and then to my house. I go into my room and look at what im wearing, i pose in the mirror trying to get as many angles as i can to see how i look. I nod in approval as i think what im wearing looks fine. I grab a hair elastic and put my hair into a quick ponytail. I exit my room shutting the door and turning off the light.
"Mom I'll be home by 7" I said as I walked over to give her a hug and a kiss goodbye, little did i know this Goodbye could last a while longer than intended.
"I will see you later." She smiled and kissed my forehead goodbye.
"Bye Jim" I said smiling over at him, he just waved as he was caught up on some silly show on the tv. I giggled as I left the house locking the front door. I begin my small little walk over to Julia's house. It's Only a five minute walk. I kick rocks as i continue on the sidewalk to Julias house. The sun glistens of my semi-tanned skin. I pass an older lady with a really nasty look on her face walking a small dog that looks like it hasnt eaten in days. I think to myself 'Man she looks like shes in a good mood.' and then silently giggle to myself.
"Hey Sare-Bare!" Julia exclaims as she opens the door once i arrive. "Mom I will see you at 7!" Julia yells into the house before she steps outside. "You ready?" She asks me when she is outside her house. I nod as i walk down her porch stairs on the way to the mall.
****************
We finally arrive after the mall after 15 miutes of walking. We just talked about shoes, and the movie premiere next week. We walk into the main shoe store called "Mini's", it has all the collest and new shoes, its all really cool except for the name. Julia grabs a pair of bright highlighter pink sandals with a one and a half inch heels.
"Woah! Are you sure you can walk in those things!" I say loudly so she can hear I also laugh at the same time and she joins in on the 'Laughing Party'.
"Hell Yeah!" She struts down the ile showing off the shoes. I laugh and she sits on the seat next to me and laughs along side me.
"You did Tyra Justice." I say clapping my hands like one of those fancy people where your fingers on one hand touch the palm of the other.
"Im going to get them! Then when i try out for Americas Next Top Model when im 18 i will where them just for you!" She laughs, and takes off the shoes and puts them in the box that they came from and walks up to the cash register. I follow behind her.
Julia pays for her shoes. She better enjoy them, i would bever pay $57.99 for a pair of shoes unless i was absolutly in love with them. We exit the store and walk over to a bench. Julia wants to put on her new shoes and break them in. She doesnt even need to say anything about wanting to put them on, i already know thats what she wants to do, it happens everytime.
"Im starting to get hungry. Can we go to the food court?" She asks me. I nod as i look down at my stomach, im hungry too.
We make our way over to the food court. We walk up to the place where they sell fries. We order and go sit at a table and begin to eat. I take a sip of my coke and look over at Julia's heels "I still dont know how you walk in them!" I exclaim.
"Practice makes perfect" she replies and smiles continuesly eating her fries and drinking her coke.
**********
We spend another couple of hours before we better start on our way home. We have tons of stories to share once we get home about how much fun we were having. We leave the mall still in tears from all the laughs. We cannot stop laughing, we even arrive at Julia's still in tears!
"See Ya Sarah!" She hugs me and goes into her house. I Hug her back.
"See ya Julia!" I say before I let go of our hug. She gives me a wave once she gets to the door. I smile and continue on my way.
I walk down the street continuely kicking a rock down the street continuing on the street to the corner. All Of a sudden i feel someting go on my face, it feels like a cloth. I try to scream for help but i cannot breath, i slowly begin to stop kicking and screaming, im out like a light.
