I just realized I messed up the book LMAO but school ended now and it's july, meaning schools out but I messed up and forgot to write the last day of school but I don't wanna go back and rewrite anything

Today is my 16th birthday and I wasn't excited about it. Soda and I have always been excited for eachothers birthdays since we were kids but after my mom died my excitement kinda died.

I woke up and didn't even bother to get dressed, I went downstairs to watch some tv but I was greeted by Lisa.

"Happy sweet 16th" She said excitingly and gave me a hug.

"Thanks Lisa" I said and gave a fake smile

"Sooo what're you doing today? Do you want me to make you breakfast?" She asked

"Not really, I'll just have some cereal and watch mickey mouse or something" I shrugged

"Cmon, it's your sweet 16th. You don't wanna do anything?"

"Nope" I said, popping the P. I walked into the kitchen and poured myself some cereal.

"Well you may wanna get dressed because I think you'll have company later" Soda must've called earlier when I was sleeping.

I sighed. "I'll get dressed after this episode"

After the episode of mickey mouse finished I went and got ready, it wasn't fancy or anything because I don't even want to leave my house today.

I heard a knock on the door, Soda and Ponyboy were there.

"Happy birthday" they said with huge smiles on their faces, which obviously made me smile. I pulled them into a group hug.

"Thanks but I just wanna watch TV today" I said shrugging

"Kimberly it's your 16th birthday are you sure you don't wanna do anything?" Pony asked

"Yes I'm sure. You should know this by now I don't like my birthday anymore"

When my mom was still around we'd have a lots of fun on my birthday even though Dally and I were still kids. She'd cook us a big meal, we'd watch movies and I'd get a bunch of toys. Then when it came to my birthday party my Soda and the gang, along with some school friends would always come over and we'd play in my backyard. When we got tired of running around my dad would come and give us lemonade and talk to us, keeping us occupied before I could open presents or eat cake.
Props to my dad for still trying to make it fun when my mom passed, he'd try and make food and spoil me with presents.
Then I guess I grew up. Soda thinks I grew up too fast and that I should have fun once in a while but I do have fun with the gang all the time. My birthday isn't special.

"Darrel made cake and it's at the house, he went to work but he said no one can eat it until you come over and have the first slice" Soda said, practically begging me to hang out with them.

"Fineee! Let me put on shoes and tell Lisa I'm leaving" I walked inside and went to find Lisa, she was in the kitchen cleaning up.

"I'm going to sodas, if I'm too lazy to leave I might just sleep over" I said

"Okay have fun."

I was about to walk off but she  stopped me. She was trying to tell me about teenage boys and not to do anything and to use protection blah blah blah
