Chapter 2

First week of summer I have literally done nothing but be in my room and play in my phone

My mom and dad have been fighting a lot lately it's just background noise at this point I think they're just stressed

I'm over the top stressed because I don't know if I want to go to collage just yet I honestly don't think I do I wanna relax for a bit and not think about school

I kinda wanna just see what's out there for me see the world, or parts of Australia I haven't been to

Maybe I'll just take a year off I don't even know anymore it's just stressful because I have to send in applications

And it's not like I can go out with friends I have none so I can't do anything

All I do anymore is just watch netflix on my laptop I've pretty much ran put of stuff to watch

Maybe I'll go out today, maybe I'll go to the mall

I have no clue where to go but I wanna go out I mean it is summer break I should leave the house

I shut off my laptop and get up to go downstairs to tell them I'm going out

As I get down stairs I already hear arguing this is always fun to hear as the words blare through your ears

"You are such an asshole to do that" my mom yells at my father

"Well maybe if you cared more I wouldn't have to" my dad tells my mom louder then he needs to

I have no idea what to do I never do in these situations

"So I think I'm gonna go to the mall today?" I tell whoever is paying attention

"Whatever you need any money?" My father ask me

"Yeah like maybe 50" I don't know what I'm going for so who knows

He gives me 40 and I take it with out a question

My dads the only one with a job anymore my mum stopped working when I was 10

I walk back upstairs while they both start yelling at each other again and I try to cancel out the noise

I put on some clothes instead of pjs and grab the money and my phone I head back down stairs and grab my keys

"Bye" I mumble at them

I shut the door not caring about the replies because they usually don't bother

I start my car and leave blaring the radio

Hopefully they'll be done fighting when I get back

.

I hate the mall why did I bother to go at all I sigh to myself as I walk in I don't know where to go

Maybe I'll just walk around for a bit get something to wear like shorts I need a few new pairs

Not like I have any plans anyway I can spend all day here if I please

As I'm walking I notice the boy Michael from school walking too but on the other side

Great this is why I hate the mall I see people I don't want to socialize with

"Lily?Hey!" I hear him shout walking up to me with a black haired boy with him but I can remember his a name at all

"Oh hey Michael" I say giving a small smile trying not to look nervous

He has Calum with him that's his name

"Funny seeing you here" he lightly laughs at me being here

"Yeah I kinda wanted to get outta the house" it's the truth I can't handle how much my parents fight it's gives me a headache
