"Why did you do it?" he asked.
"What are you talking about" I replied nervously I knew what he was talking about. I just had hope that it would've been something else.
"The lie" he replied calmly while me on the other hand was shaking. I was nervo...
"Oh that's my stepdaughter Yasmin, isn't she gorgeous" Cyntia said with a smile.
"Yes she is" Hailey said looking at me.
"Hailey" I said surprised.
"Hello to you too" she said with a smile "Good to see you're alright."
"Oh you know each other" Cyntia said happily.
"Yeah she's my fri-" I quickly stopped myself, we only talked once. She's not your friend, she would laugh if you finish that sentence."She's in my class, she's my classmate" I said quickly.
"Oh that's nice" Cyntia said with a shrug.
"And this classmate would like to invite you to her party on Saturday" Hailey said.
What? Me at a party. Haha no way.
"Yes! yes of course she will be there" Cyntia said excitedly.
"No!" I shouted.
Cyntia and Hailey looked at me surprised.
"I-I have this group thing to do with Ashley" I stutter.
"That's fine you can come by early to my place, Ashley will be there to help me get ready anyways" Hailey said.
"Yes that would be nice, right Yasmin" Cyntia said.
"Yeah" I manage to put on a smile.
"It would be cool if you wear that dress" Hailey said looking me up and down.
"Ok" I said rushing in the changing room.
I breath out the breathe I didn't know I was holding once I was inside.
I could hear Hailey and Cyntia outside talking. I pressed my ears against the door to hear better.
"Yeah she's just shy" Cyntia said.
"Yeah I should get going, oh I forgot to ask Yasmin for her number so can I get in from you" Hailey said.
"Yeah sure" I heard Cyntia said.
I removed my ears from the door and changed into my clothes.
I stepped out and Cyntia help me with the clothes.
Cyntia paid the cashier and we carried the bags to the car.
We decided to buy pizza on our way back.
It wasn't long before we arrived home I carried the bags to my room and then joined Cyntia on the coach to watch a movie.
We laid pizza, snacks, popcorn and orange juice on the table, then decided to watch a fall from grace.
Half-way through the movie, I heard my dad car pull up in the driveway. He opened the door saying.
"Can you believe I fixed up the dog Rufus, oh my who am I kidding there was no way he would die with my veteran skills".
He stopped when he saw us and smiled. . . . . . . .
