Isabelle's POV

When we go inside the thrift ship, no ones really there since it's like 9 in the morning.

Steven, Joanna and I are the only people here, and also a lady who is behind the cash register. (Not sure what they are called)

I start to look around and see some cute clothes.

I see this sunflower dress and grab it.

"Is this cute?" I ask Joanna.

"Awh yes it is cute. You should get it." She says and smiles.

"Probably." I say.

I see a whole bunch of bracelets on the other side of the room and I head over there.

I see a bracelet that says ; "Live" the angel said and so they did.

"That bracelet represents overcoming a eating disorder, that angel on the left side is the old her and the angel on the right side is her now."

I turn around and see the lady who was behind the cash register, smiling at me.

"Where did you get these?" I ask her.

"Someone brought a box of them, there is some different ones, look." She says.

I find a other one that says ; Just one more day.

"That bracelet is like a reminder, to stay strong. Here look at this one." The lady says and hands me a bracelet that says ; please be kind to yourself.

"These are beautiful, how much do they cost?" I say in amazement.

"Keep them."

"You're gonna give them to me for free?" I say.

"Yeah. My name is Dali by the way."

"Thank you so much! My name is Isabelle."

"Nice to meet you."

"Hey Isabelle let's go?" Steven says from the other side of the store, and then runs up to me.

"Yeah hold up let me buy this dress." I tell him and hand the lady 10 dollars.

"Keep it."

"But you already gave me these bracelets.!" I tell Dali.

"It's okay keep it."

"Thank you so much! I have to go now but it was nice meeting you." I tell her and she gives me a smile.

"You too."

"What are you gonna order?" I ask Joanna.

Right now, we were at Jack In The Box, getting something to eat.

"Probably chicken strips." She says and laughs. "You?"

"Large fries and a small coke, you Steven?"

"Same."

Once we order and eat our food, I check the time and it's 1:10 pm.

"Damn, time goes fast." Steven says as we head outside.

"It really does."

"Let's go back to our house? School is gonna be over like in 10 minutes." Steven says and we agree.

When we arrive at my neighborhood, Steven tells me bye since his house is on the next street.

"Where is your house Joanna?" I tell her once Steven leaves.

"Three houses away from yours."

"Oh."

When I get to my house, I tell Joanna bye and head inside.
