"Syrup or Honey, "My mother asked.
"What's the difference," I said.
"They both have a much more different taste, "My mom said while flipping another pancake off the pan.
"I'll have...Syrup,"
"okkie-dookie,"
My mother took the syrup bottle and poured it over my pancakes.
"Thank you," I said while gobbling my pancake.
Her pancakes are the best as always.
As my mom looked at me she noticed my dark circles under my eyes.
"Were you up all night?"She said crossing her arms.
I almost choked on pancakes when I heard her.
"Wh-wh-what pfft no,"
My mother raised her eyebrow.
"Ok, I was up for a little while,"
"And why,"
"I was...studying,"
"Studying?"
"Yes, High School is really hard okay,"
My mother sighed.
"You need to start sleeping more, your gonna ruin this beautiful face of yours," she said while squishing my cheek.
"Yeah Yeah, mom,"
It was 8:30, Me and Mom were at the kitchen counter eating her special Chocolate Pancakes. My dad who was a police officer had already left early for his job. It was always just me, my mom, and my dad. I was an adopted child by them, so my mother always took care of me no matter what.
After a good 5 minutes of ravaging my pancakes, I washed my hands at the sink then put on my bookbag to go to school.
"Oh, Isabella, sweety, do you need a ride,"
"Naa Ill go on my bike, "I said kissing her on the cheek.
"Ok, be safe,"
...
When I got to school, it was already packed with a bunch of high-school kids getting ready to get class. I pushed threw everyone and tried to get downstairs, to the Morning Announcements Studio, which was located in the school's basement.
When I got there, I sighed in relief, there was no one here.
I hurried and went into the cabinet looking for the blue box, and when I found out I sighed in relief, I opened the box to see my little friend, Sid. He was a little creature, a fascinating one really.
He was very small but had claws and fangs, it was shaped like a lizard I didn't know what creature to call it, yesterday, I spent all night trying to google and look-up what creature it was, but there was absolutely nothing. I've been keeping records and data of him for a good 2 months after I found him in the snow during the winter.
Sid has been growing much bigger since then, and if I took care of him, I didn't see the big deal of letting me keep him.
I came to the conclusion he was just some undiscovered lizard, or maybe some sort of alien, or maybe even a fallen demon.
Even so,Sid was family, I couldn't leave him alone.
I took out a few chocolate chips in my bookbag and gave them to Sid to eat.
Sid gobbled it up in one whole, and his grew an inch bigger. The more he eats the bigger he got.
I might have to buy a bigger box, and not let him eat for a while, I thought.
That's when the bell rang.
Oh, shoot, I'll be late.
I put the lid on the box and partially ran out of the room before a teacher came in.
I was happy I was able to keep Sid. There was no trouble with it. But even so,I regret not turning him to the police, because it cost me a great fortune.
