Picture Perfect
"Prom is approaching, and I'm not ready," I think to myself. "I haven't bought my dress yet, my shoes, or made any appointments. I don't even have a date! I can't say I blame the guys around here," I mumble while feeling very sorry for myself. "I'm very predictable. I do the same things every day! I wake up, get ready for school, walk outside to my freezing cold car and scrape off the windows, and head off to school. I wish Dad would let me park in the garage. I'm the one that has to leave the house at 7:00 a.m. It is more work for me, though. I don't think anyone really notices, or cares. I only see Dad about twice a week when he comes home from work earlier than normal." I roll out of bed, and stare at my beeping alarm clock with glowing red numbers. Stretching up to the sky, I think, "I can't be late for school anymore or the teachers will give me detention. Father would not be pleased."

Shuffling around in my dark room, I find the phone and dial my grandma's phone number. Shouldn't you go back to school?" "Nah. " The usual pangs of sad memories shoot through my stomach. It always made me feel safe when I wore it. The dancing and laughing is endless. Grandma, I'm all alone in this world. What's wrong, Dear? Why aren't you in school?""Do you care about me?""Of course I do. "I guess since he's a doctor, he knows what all of these pills are. "I'm just lying to myself by thinking these things fit.
