This must be a dream. If it is somebody please wake me up.

"What are you doing here?" I ask trying to stop breathing so hard.

"What? I can't come to the mall?" She asks laughing.

"What do you want?"

"I just wanted to speak to my old friend."

"We're not friends."

"Well nice talk. See you at school."

"What?"

"Oh yes I'm going to the same school you go to. Problem?"

"Not at all."

"Good." She smiles and walks off. I swear if I had a pillow I would scream into it. I bet you're all wondering who she is. She's my worst enemie. We've hated each other since fourth grade. If anyone knows me they know I hate her. I haven't saw her since sixth grade. I wanted to keep it that way but doesn't look like that's gonna happen.

Jack finally comes over.

"Find anything?" He asks empty handed.

"No. We need to go." I grab his hand.

"What's going on? Is a robbery about to happen?"

"No."

"Terrorist attack?"

"No worse."

"What can be worse than a terrorist attack?"

"I'll tell you later." I drag him to the food court where everyone else is. I sit down and put my head in my hands.

"Are you okay?" Kyle asks.

"Yea I'm fine." I say quickly.

"You sure? You don't sound like it."

"Listen are we done here?"

"We just got here. Let's do some more shopping."

"Ugh." This is the first time I've ever wanted to leave the mall so early. We do some more shopping and leave at around six thirty. I get in the car and sigh.

"Today has been a long day." I put on my seatbelt.

"I know that's right." Jack says.

"Why was it long for you?"

"I spent hours walking around the mall looking for girl stuff."

"Whatever." I smile and look out the window. When we finally get home I take a hot shower and get ready for bed. My phone rings as I see it's Marcus.

"Hey babe." He says.

"Hi." I sit on the bed.

"How was your day?"

"It was okay."

"What happened?"

"Well we went shopping."

"That sounds like something you'd love to do. Why do you sound so down?"

"It's been a long couple of days. I need some sleep."

"Well I'll let you get some. Bye babe see you tomorrow."

"Okay see you tomorrow." I hang up and fall back onto the bed. I put my phone up and go to sleep.

The Next Morning

I wake up to my alarm and quickly turn it off. I need more sleep but sadly I can't get it. I get up to brush my teeth and wash my face. I come out of the bathroom and sit on the bed. I pick out some clothes and get dressed.
