"Grandma"
"Yes" she asks , not looking up from her computer
"Are you happy?" I ask
She stops and looks at me " of course...why wouldn't I be happy?" She asks
I'm not sure if I believed her...
"I was just asking."
"...is everything alright?"
"Yeah. I'm gonna eat this in my room"
"Alright. Clean your mess after you're done though"
" Yes ma'am"
Half way up the stairs I hear her yell "and brush those teeth!"
I laugh and go in my room to text Jayden.

About an hour goes past and I'm about to dose off but then my Phone goes off
🎶"I spy with my little eye, a girlie I can get cause she, don't get too many likes. A curly- headed cutie I can turn into my wife. Wait , that means forever, ever, hold up never mind 🎶"
My ringtone was lil yatchy's song "I spy"
"Hello"? I answer as soon as I stop dancing to the song
"Hey bird.i ts grandma Mel"
I laugh "I know grandma. I have your number. Everything alright?"
"Yes of course. I was calling to ask if you've found a place to do community service at."
"No ma'am I haven't."
"Well I've found one for you."
"Oh... You did?.. you didn't have to I-"
"Oh well I know but over at the women's center they're having a lot of meetings this month and they were looking for people to help out. I instantly thought of you"
"Awwn grandma! Thank you, I'd love to help out" I say. She honestly just saved me the trouble of looking and I was over happy.
"No problem. Anything for you"
"Well thank you"
"Oh! I almost forgot to ask, would you be free next week on Saturday?"
"Um I think I am....why do you ask?"
"Well Christopher needs someone to watch Marlana and Aiden while he takes out Christy for their anniversary"
"Oh. Well yeah I can do it. I'll put it in my calendar"
"Great! Thank you so much"
"No problem."
"Alright well I'll let you get back to your day. Love you bird"
"Love you too"
With that we hung up and I went back to doozing off.

"I see a ice cream cone" I say as a point to a triangular looking cloud with a circle above it
"That's definitely just a blob" someone says next to me
I turn my head and see my mom. I smile
"You always say they look like blobs" I laugh
I lay in a field of Daisy's whilst looking at the clouds with my hand interlocked with my moms.
"This feels so real" I say
