One week before school starts:
Soon to be highschooler Zhang Fumei had been napping on the couch and had been doing nothing for the past weeks. Right now she was sleeping on the couch covering herself with a thick blanket. A look of disapproval appeared on her mother's face as she stepped inside her home carrying her bag of groceries. She slapped her forehead after putting the groceries on the table and sighed" what do I do with her? "
" Mom " there was a voice from behind
Her mom hopelessly turned to ask what she needed." Can I go out today" meimei asked( Fumei is called mei mei by her close friends and family. So it's okay if i write here meimei. She's one of my closest friends😼) . " Why are you asking me that " her mom questioned " you-you, are you going to keep testing my patience?. You do nothing ,sleep all day, gobbling up all the food in the fridge and now what ?
"Money"
"Huh-- what"
" I need money" meimei replied
Her mom started at her for a while...
" Well you see i- i always stay at home and do nothing so , i thought I should go out, get some vitaminD .... You know that kinda stuff"
Her mom slapped some money on the table and started putting the groceries on the fridge" come home early"
"Sure will" and shifted to her room. There she put on some makeup, styled her hair, and dressed up cutely . The dress suited her perfectly.
After she had spent her day she went to the convenience store and bought some bread and two of her favourite drinks. She skipped along happily down to the bus stop . Oh , sorry i forgot to mention that she has the craziest luck so I'm guessing you've already guess what happens next. Yeah , so she missed the bus and worst she had to wait 45 minutes more for the next one to come. But only a lunatic would wait 45 minutes more and she wasn't one. To be fair it hadn't even been 1:00 but she was urging to go home but now what can be done . While she was thinking the plastic bag which contains her food teared andher drinks rolled away . She picked up the bread and chased her drinks down the street . When she finally caught up with it she was in an unfamiliar place . There was no one not even a stray dog only a lonely bookstore was being sheltered by this balmy place.
She walked up to the bookstore gathering all her hope. But luck defeats hope . The store was closed but still she hoped that someone would come so she positioned herself on the porch talking and cursing herself " why did i come out anyway? Am I always this stupid?" She questioned scratching her hair. As she was in distress she heard footsteps coming closer . She dared not look up
She was scared that it might have been a theif.she covered herself with her bag and said go away but it only came closer
"Aghhhhh" she screamed and threw the bag at him but he caught her bag and threw it back at her, stepped over her and took out a key from his pocket" aren't you coming" he said . Meimei could not see his face but judging from his back she thought he might look handsome
