I ♥ Me!

   Dear Freddy,     

        How many times have i told you!? You shouldnt

        No matter what you say…It’s not gonna

        Why dont you understand that im not

         Im not who you think i am… I’m sorry but this just cant work! Once you understand what it is that im going through. Then maybe we’ll be able to talk. Not now though. Not since im going through so much right now. Im sorry i hurt you. I never meant to!!!

         I looked over the note again. “Why cant i get this right?” I asked myself. Knock Knock Knock. -Sigh- I swiftly jumped up and hid the note to Freddy. “Come in. It’s open!” Slowly the door opened and my mom peeked inside, “Hunny What are you doing here? Shouldnt you be outside or with your friends?! Its the summer! Its warm outside! GO SOMEWHERE!” My mother was always pushy with my fitness. “Actually mom, I was thinking about taking the car and driving to a friends house.” “NOT WITHOUT ME YOU’RE NOT!” -Sigh- “Just because thats the law doesnt mean you have to be so pushy!” Hahahaha! That made me sound so stupid! I looked up at my mom and her mouth was gaping at my comment “WHO DO YOU THINK WE ARE! DO YOU NOT REMEMBER WHO YOUR FATHER WAS! HOW COULD YOU FORGET THAT OUR FAMILY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALL THE PEOPLE IN THIS SOCIETY!” Her face turned red “Mom! You dont have to yell! Im standing right here. Calm down! It was a joke. You should know that i wouldnt disobey the law. Even if dad were still here! I know Tani Looks up to me and tries to copy exactly what i do! Maybe i should just forget my friends and do something with her today. Where is she?” Mom looked at the floor and then up at me, “Maybe you’re right. But i didnt mean for you to abandon your friends just because your sister looks up to you! I dont want you to do that!” “I’ve already done it mom. They’ll understand. Trust me. Where is Tani?” -Sigh- “If you’re sure. She’s up in her room with her friend Tiffany. But Tiff needs to go home in about 5 minutes anyways. You should go up and introduce yourself and MAYBE set an example of yourself.” With a slight chuckle i bound up the stairs to Tani’s room. When i got to the door i stopped and listened. “Thats what i heard! Maybe you should be more like your sister Tani!” Giggles. “Possibly mother. But Tani is so much more fun then i am! Why would i do that!?” More giggles. I opened the door while they were laughing and they didnt hear. “Ahem. Why is it i should be more like you?” Both girls gasped and turned wide eyed towards me. “Emmi i did-…” I ran towards the girls and they screamed and took off running around the room I swept Tani off the floor and she started giggling again “Emily! Put me down! Put me down!” She was overwhelmed in giggles and laughs as i tickled her sides. Gasping for air i set her back down on her feet and she ran towards the corner where Tiffany was waiting. I chuckled and went to stand next to her. “Hi. Im Emily. I hear your name is Tiffany. Is that correct?” I chuckled as her eyes grew wide and she looked at Tani. “Yes. Im Tiffany” She smiled real big and shook my hand. “Im sorry to be the bear of bad news but…My mom said that your mother called and she wants you home.” “Awwww!” Was all you heard from both girls. “Do you have to go? Maybe you could stay the night!” If that were to happen that would ruin my plan. “Now Tani, I dont think Mom’s up for ANOTHER girl in the house. Even if it is for just one night. Maybe i can smooth her over and get her to say yes for tomorrow!” I smiled and both girls’ faces lit up like a candle. “That would be great Emmi! Could you do that for me?” Tani was staring at me with the cutest little smile! “Anything for my little sister.” “Okay! I’ll see ya tomorrow then Tiff! I’ll call you when i get up!” “Okay Tani! Byeee! Oh! And thanks a bunch Emily! You’re great!” I smiled as she made her way down the stairs. “Hey Tani, Wanna go someplace fun?” I watched her facial expressions as she slowly came to understandings. “You made sure she couldnt stay because YOU wanted to hang out with me?!” Haha! “Yes sure! That’s it! Just get ready, go kiss mom, and get in the car! Or im leaving you!”

          As i stood up to walk down the stairs and leave Tani’s room. I felt the note in my back pocket shift it’s position and i couldnt help but to take it out and read it again. I closed Tani’s door and looked down at the words, “You just dont understand do you Freddy?” I asked no one specifically. But it was mom who answered, “You should take that to him. Whatever it is. You seem to really be down in the dumps today. Who is Freddy? I’ve never heard you mention his name before?” I jumped a little when she first spoke but besides that i should have known she’d figure out the note. It’s no one mom. Dont worry yourself, You probably wont see him anytime soon. That i can promise you!” We both sighed at the same time. “Im going out with Tani anyways. I couldnt make any detours or she might get aggravated. You know Tani!” “Tani is always up to anything you do. You should know that by now. Oh and, I got online…Looked up some stuff then called a few people. Here” She tossed something to me and i caught it and looked at my hands. A set of car keys? I asked myself. “Why would I-…” “You wont get in any trouble if you get stopped for any reason. Some of the boys at the office will take care of everything.” I smiled and ran over to mom to hug her. “I love you so much mom! Thank you!… HURRY YOU TANI IM IN THE CAR!” I sprinted down the stairs and started up the car. I only slightly noticed the note that i had shoved back into my pocket in my haste. I pulled it back out and folded it neatly and set it to my right. Out of view from Tani. Tani ran outside and jumped into the backseat. Her normal seat because of mom. “No no Tani! Up here!” She looked quizically at me and started to ask But what about mom!?Before i cut her off saying “Mom said that i could drive without her today! Jump up front! Hurry!” Tani quickly hurried to the front seat and strapped in. I briefly thought of how to say this but couldnt come up with any ideas as to trick Tani. She was becoming hard to trick! Just like me! “Tani we’re going to make a little detour from our true destination. But it will only take a few minutes. I promise” Frowning she asked “Whats the detour and where are we going?” “Well, I guess you’re just going to have to wait and see!” And i backed out of the driveway and headed off towards Freddy’s house.
