"What's are you still doing at home? Mom from the stairs with a yawn
"No school mom" I said slicing the onions
"Why? She question with a surprised expression
"Public Holiday Mom! I added and dish the food
"Oops...Bad memory" She muttered silently and sat gently on the dining chair
"Are you not going to work? I pour her some wine

"Should I just follow you? And when are you coming back? I rushed all my question
"You can't go with me Savannah"
"My child has grown up....Am sure she can take care if herself now" She added and caress my hair lovingly
"Am I? Finally have grown up" I dance round the room

"No..no " That's too soft
"Hi baby" I said with my hand on my waist smiling sheenly
"That's too bad" I mutter and slam my forehead
"Hi....Can I get in? I practice for the hundredth time
"Oops...That's too serious" I let out a soft sigh
"Get in" He pulled over to my side
"Hi " I said smiling sheenly like a dumb
I know I look most stupid right now. I get my struck feet in and place my butt gently on the seat
"Have it "He stretched out a bag as he drove off
"What's that? I question stretching out my hand to collect it
"You can check it"
Opening the bag gently was a pink curtail dress
"Change to that" He said and pull over
"What's wrong with my dress?
"It not that bad"
"I just need my girlfriend to look more hotter than anyone" He added moving his lips towards mine
we are just an inch apart
"I will just change" I said gesturing him to leave
"Sure...He get out of the car

He open the door as I alight gently. He held my hand as we walk across the crowd. I bow my face slightly making my hair fall gently across my face as people stare at us
"Is that not Savannah? They whisper among themselves
"She looks different! You look most ugly"Another said and roll her eyes
"He is even holding her hand" Another said in a tearful voice
"I will get you a drink" Tyler left after placing me on a seat
I stare at others dancing and laughing. I just hope he comes back really fast
"I told you guys...it really her" Evans walks towards me with Willa and Wendy
"Not today pleaseeee" I whisper to myself
"Wanna dance? Wendy said getting on her feet
"No...Am okay" I replied quietly
"I heard you can't even afford a simple dress" Willa said and sat right beside me
I sigh slightly. I shouldn't have wear it, how does she know anyway
"It not that bad" Ruby walks in along with her twin sister Rose in a red classic gown
it look really perfect on them
"What about playing a small game" Rose said passing me a glass of wine
Rose hardly talk....But I guess I made her talk. I smell some trouble
"I don't.....
"You don't have a choice Child" She cut me off
"Child? I scoff and chuckles
"Am in " I adjust my dress and sit properly
"Nice choice" She said and wink at me
