“I took pictures,” Bre said. She showed it to us. It was nice and clear.

“Show that to mom when you see her,” my dad said to her.

“Don’t worry… I will.”

My dad said goodnight to us and went off to bed. Everybody went their separate ways now. I decided to get something to eat before calling it a night.

The week went by slowly like usual. I spent some quality time with each of my parent, since I don’t get to see them much. School is boring like always. I helped out with homework and made sure the house was cleaned up and everything was in order. I got my grade for the English paper and I was satisfied with an A minus.

“Alyssa!” I heard Bre calling me. I went to see what she wanted. I found her outside with Jane and Lily.

“What?” I asked.

She pointed towards the street where an ice cream truck was coming around. “Do you want anything?”

“Let’s go and see what she has.”

I took a peek in the ice cream cart. I bought myself strawberry shortcake for a dollar. My sister got themselves one of those ice creams that you push up and comes in a variety of flavor. We walked back inside and followed Bre to her room.
