I wake up in my bed and still feel exhausted. I manage to walk up to the bathroom and freshen myself. I smell something good cooking and walk out of my room to see my mom preparing something delicious. "What's for breakfast mom?" I yawn. "Ohh good morning honey, I've made some french toast" she says with a smile as always. "Mmmmm....smells good" I grab some of it and take a bite. It's the favourite day of mine, sunday, but today it's a bit different. Whatever Shelly said yesterday is going around my head throughout, I just can't stop thinking about it. 

I some how find a distraction and keep myself busy helping mom. I wondered what Shelly meant my 'be sure'. I just don't understand why was she so unsure about me taking a chance with Dean when I finally have one. Does she know something about Dean that I or anyone else does not know. Is she hiding something from me coz everytime I talk about Dean she is least intrested to be involved. Also whenever I talk about me and Dean she is never satisfied with it, as if she does not want me and Dean to happen. I hope it's not what I think, she's maybe just being  a possesive bestie who does not want me to get hurt or into any kind of trouble.  Maybe I am just overthinking coz that's all I've ever done. She cares about me, how can I doubt her. 

I try my best to avoid the strange feeling Shelly's words gave me as I try completing my homework. I sigh as I complete it and bounce on my bed that's not bouncy enough. "Harper honey......dinner's ready" my mom calls out. I wonder what took me so long that it's dinner time. I glance at my clock, it's 7:15 and it took me 3 hours to complete a single work. I am not usually that slow but I don't know what made me do that. "Coming mom" I almost yelled. I walk towards the small table of ours and I see some veggies and rice sitting on it. I sit on my chair as my mom served me the dinner. I was staring at my plate as I was lost in my thoughts. "Harper?" my mom looks at me with eyes full of suspicion. "Yeah....umm what happened?"  I avoid eye contact with her. "Your dinner is in front of you, do you plan to have it?" She says with the same look on her face. "Uhh yeah but I am not hungry" I almost stammer. "Are you okay?" she places her hand on mine. "Yeah I am.....just tired" I try my best to avoid my eye contact with her. She gives out a breathy laugh and gave up on the look of suspicion on her face "It happens you just have to take care of yourself, okay?". "Yes mom I know. Thanks for being there for me" I smile at her. "I'll be there for you always honey" she smiles at me too and and gestures me to finish my dinner. 

I hit my bed as I me and mom finish doing the dishes and watch some TV. I stare at my ceiling as I think about Shelly that was nothing new for the day. I wanna know what's on her mind. I close my eyes and sleeps takes all of me.
