Before I could knock on the door, Lester opened it and let me inside. He had a stupid looking grin on his face, and I hoped that he hadn’t seen us kissing in the van. “It’s good to see you,” he said as he looked me up and down. “I just saw you yesterday,” I replied as I crossed the threshold. After he had winked his eye, he said, “I know.” Just then my mother yelled from the kitchen, “Summer, is that you?” “Yes, Mom. It’s me.” “Taste this lemonade that Imani made. It’s delicious; I told her that she needs to set up a lemonade stand.” “Where is Imani anyway?” I asked as I looked around. “She’s taking a bath in the soaker tub in my room. She should be out in a few minutes. She’s been in there for over an hour. I hope she hasn’t used all the hot water,” Lester …show more content…
“That’s my ride. Summer, I’ll see you when I get back. Don’t leave,” she said as she spoke with greasy lips and a mouth full of food. “I’ll walk you outside,” Lester announced as he got up from the table. When the both of them left the table mom asked me if I wanted to go to bingo with her tonight. After turning her down all the time, I decided to take her up on her offer. Maybe I could win some money this evening; God knows I needed some extra cash after agreeing to take Imani to the mall. “Alright Mom. I’ll go.” “Really?” “Yeah. I’m feeling lucky. Maybe I can win big like you did.” “The jackpot is back up to five thousand. Wouldn’t that make a great addition to your bank account?” “Yes, it would.” “As soon as I’m finished eating we can go.” “Go where?” Lester asked as he entered the kitchen. “Oh, Summer finally agreed to go to the bingo hall with me.” The look on Lester’s face was a little unclear when he heard the news about being left home alone until he opened his mouth. “You can’t hang with your mom all night. I bet you’ll be back before she will,” he said with a
THE PAST :.. In days gone by, the four species managed to live in perfect harmony. Witches, werewolves and vampires lived in secret, blending in with the humans on a daily basis - and the humans remained completely in the dark about their existence. It was after thousands of years of living this way, whilst everything was completely normal, that a small group of vampires decided that they’d had enough. They spent months devising plans.
The Creature That Opened My Eyes Sympathy, anger, hate, and empathy, these are just a few of the emotions that came over me while getting to know and trying to understand the creature created by victor frankenstein in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. For the first time I became completely enthralled in a novel and learned to appreciate literature not only for the great stories they tell but also for the affect it could have on someones life as cliché as that might sound, if that weren’t enough it also gave me a greater appreciation and understanding of the idiom “never judge a book by its cover.” As a pimply faced, insecure, loner, and at most times self absorbed sophomore in high school I was never one to put anytime or focus when it came time
The child said if he, his mother, and others were present for her to go somewhere with her mother. He reminds her she had fun with her
“You two boys look nice. why don't you come and next to us?” the red haired girl says giving us a friendly smile. Me and johnny get up and sit down next to them. “What are two nice boys like you doing hanging around with someone like dallas winston,” says
Carine: Mom, can I please go on the camping trip with Hazel? The idea of the trip is to learn more about each other and become ever closer friends. Mom: I know you really want to go, but it isn't safe out there in the mountains. You need to hike for a lengthy time to get to the top.
I started walking over to the boarding section, where I would board the flight. “You be a good boy now for the assistants and the helpers,” my mom said. “Don’t worry,” I said, “I’ll be great!” “Have fun William,” mom said with tears in her eyes, “I love you!” “I love you too mom!”
The next morning I approach my mom before she heads off to work. “Hey mom,” I start ringing my hands together a little as I walk into the kitchen where she’s making a boxed lunch for herself. “Good morning sweetie.” She says to me as she spreads peanut butter on some bread for a sandwich.
It was silent the whole way to the mall, the family didn’t have much to talk about there life was as simple as opening a door. They reached the mall and freddie and brian met with the group of friends. “ Hey guys ” said freddy. Everyone else said “hi” or “hey” back. “ My mom made me take brian sorry ” said freddy.
After the long walk and entering his house, Mike threw his backpack and shoes to the floor and began to make a sandwich. He relaxed on his couch watching television while waiting for his parents to arrive home from work. “Mike, are you here,” said his mom. “Yes, just like everyday you come home,” he responded.
Seeing that she wasn’t going to talk he went back to whatever he was doing before. “Probably washing
(This is what I am saying at his funeral.) "When you lose someone you are not supposed to be sad you are supposed to be truthful and tell their stories. Give them a legacy. Love is not a design or an experiment or an idea love is love. You love someone the instant you lay eyes on them. Love shows that we can be strong and weak all at the same time. Cooper showed me that it's ok to be sad or it's ok to be worried. He always told me to never lose the love or hope I had. If I did things would not be the things they are now. You can't ever lose love because it will always be there with you even if you don't want it to be there it is still going to be there, you can't forget the love you had because then you will lose everything. don't give
The coldness of the void crept into my body. A constant, throbbing pain that I couldn’t escape. I hated that pain. In order to warm myself, I cowered into the grey, soulless rock below me, squishing my body flatter than a pancake. The coldness of the rock stung me, the gritty stones digging into my flesh.
“Kelly come back, I gave you the wrong set of keys,” exclaimed Ben. I was on my way to get the riding lawn mower so we could begin our spring cleaning. It’s my Mother-in-Law, Linda’s, monstrous area consisting of two acres. We mow every Saturday during the spring and summer months to help her out since Ben’s father passed away. Outside a gentle breeze flew by as the sun glared down upon our faces.
Usually people came here if they were in a mood for a long drive, but Carol was going for Julia’s party. Carol had refused to come at first but Julia wouldn’t accept any excuses from anyone since it was her last birthday in Australia. She was moving to London forever and wanted this to be her best birthday bash ever. Carol had tried to explain her reasons. Her house was really far after all and she didn’t want to drive at night but Julia’s reason was more justified.
running down the street and made me fall over as it hurtled through my legs and continued on it's merry way. With a little feeling of ruefulness at my decision to wear high heels for the first time, I slowly began to push myself back into my tottering position. Which is when it started to rain. Great, freezing drops began to suddenly pour from the sky, and in seconds I was drenched. Staring in frustration at the sky, I realized that the umbrella I usually carried (because when doesn't it rain in New York?) had been left at home.
