School finished at 3:15 and it was scorching hot. Mum picked Macy, Laura and I from school. As we entered the car we collapsed because of the heat. I cranked up the air con and it was so refreshing. We obviously had no homework because there is only 3 days left of school. 

"Hey mum did you put the heating on for the pool and spa?" I asked mum

"Uhh I think" Mum said rather stress fully

I was beginning to get rather worried about Mum. Mum is usually always so happy and cheerful. Even when she is sad or not feeling well she would always put a smile on her face. As I see her focusing on the road she is frowning. That is not even near a smile.

                                                                        --

"Hey Ellie, your mum seems, I don't know, uh different. You know what I mean?' Macy said

"Yeah, I don't know why? I hope she will turn back to normal, cause I really don't like her being sad and all." 

My friends, my brother Jake and I were having a ball in the pool. We were playing with the inflatable pool toys and admiring the wonderful view. Macy and Laura always came to my house because they love my house. Macy is 13 and she has 4 brothers and no sisters. Her house, no offence is not very big or there is nothing to it. What kind of a friend would I be if I told her she was uh, um poor. I love Macy and I would do anything for her. If she ever needed help with financial problems I was always there to help. Macy is one of the most kind, caring and beautiful person I have ever met and she has long, straight blonde hair with bright blue eyes. 

Laura is crazy, but I totally love her. Last year she was in hospital because she had leukemia. She is totally normal now, but last year was a tough time for her, Macy and I. She has 1 brother and she is about the same height as me. She has frizzy brown hair. Where do I start about her eyes! Her eyes are so gorgeous, they are hazelnut and when she is excited they turn green! 

After Laura and Macy leave, Mum calls me to the living room. Jake, Mum and Dad are all sitting down on the couch with a serious face.
