THREE: Spending time with him

We arrived in a mall and all of us decided to eat first. I guess all of us were starving...I didn't get a chance to eat my cereal ugh. While we ate we started talking and had a conversation with Grayson. We talked a lot of things to get to know each other. He was okay, he was nice to us. I like him

" Is everyone done eating? " Grayson asked us, Leo and I both nodded. " Let's go shopping then " he said and my eyes winded " uh? are you serious? ", my brother was shocked too. Grayson smiled at us and said " I am serious, now cmon " and stand up and ofcourse we followed him

It's been a while since I went shopping and I usually don't buy a lot of stuff because we are not that rich, We're like just someone who has enough money to buy things we need and sometimes things we want.

" Is that all? " Grayson said as he looked at me and my brother, we both nodded again. " You can have more, don't worry dad would not be mad. He gave us a lot of money to spend and I guess he wants us to spend a lot " he said and laugh a little.

I looked at my brother and smiled at him and he smiled at me too and we started running to look for more things to buy

Finally, we are in our last clothing shop. While my brother and Grayson were heading to the cashier I was about to follow them when my eyes spotted something. It was in the kid's section part of the store.

I went closer to it and grab the thing that caught my attention. It was a kid's bracelet, those who have letters on it, it was either a word or your own name. The word that was on the bracelet was 'smile' and I smiled as I read it

" Do you want it? " a voice was suddenly heard behind me which scared me " omg Grayson, you scared me " I told him, " Oh I'm sorry haha, but then again do you want to buy it? it's a kid's bracelet but ey it's okay " he said. I put the bracelet down and told him

" I wasn't planning on buying it. It just reminded me of the bracelet I used to have when I was a kid, It was like that but..." I stopped and Grayson looked at me, waiting for me to continue talking " I hated it after 'that'. I lost it anyway and I don't know where it went but that's okay " I looked at him one last time and just smiled. I walked past him and went to my brother and help him carry the shopping bags

" I had a lot of fun today! " my brother yelled as we arrived at the car. " me too " I said and drop off the shopping bags in the back of the car, " me three " Grayson said behind me and all of us laughed.

" Welcome back kiddos!, So how was it? " our mother greeted us at the door " We had fun mom! look at all of these! " my brother showed all the things that we bought " OMG haha that's a lot " my mom said and giggled.

" I'm glad you guys had fun " my mom's husband told us and I gave him a big smile when I saw him and my brother did the same, " thank you so much for letting us spend this much sir " I said to him and he just smiled at me

I drop all the shopping bags I was carrying on the floor as soon as I entered my room and throw my shoulder bag on my bed, went to my closet to change into my pj's. Grab my phone from my bag and lay on my bed, I looked at the time on the screen of my phone. 5:00pm.

hmmm what should I do? I thought to myself. My eyes then landed on my desk and I saw a couple of my books laying there. I decided to read one, the one that I haven't read yet

_____

" aaaaa okay so what do I wear today? should I wear a skirt? or shorts? hmmm you know what I'll just wear pants today " I grab a pair of pants, a white shirt, and a mint cardigan. Tied my hair and fix my glasses. Whoo. New school, New People.

Not gonna lie I am nervous, It's hard for me to make friends because I don't talk that much and I'm a very shy person. But let's hope everything will be smooth toda-

" WAKE UPPPP SLEEPYHEAD " someone shouted at my door. That little shit. I grab my bag from my desk and went to open my door. " WAKE- up...? " my brother looked at me in shock " surprise? " I said and walked past him, slightly hitting my shoulder with his shoulder. " whow. That's new " he said and I rolled my eyes before saying " shut up "

____

" Just call me Eliana If you need anything, You have my number right? " Grayson said to me and I just nodded my head. " okay the school is quite big so try your best not to get lost okay? " he said and I nodded again. He smiled at me before walking away

I was about to enter my classroom when I noticed a bunch of people were starring at me. Probably because they haven't seen me until now which means I'm new here, Oh well. I entered the room and as expected students were staring at me wondering who in the heck is me

" oh the new student is here, come and introduce yourself in front of the class " The lady told me as she signal me to come and stand beside her and face the class.

I inhaled deeply and started walking towards her then started introducing myself, " Hi I- G-good morning everyone I am Eliana Rose Lopez, uhm I just recently moved to this neighborhood like a week ago so uhm hope we all get along..." I smiled nervously at them,

" Great! welcome Eliana, you may now sit anywhere you like " She said to me and I went to find somewhere to sit

I found one and started taking out my things from my bag when the girl beside me went close to me and whispered

" Hiii, I'm Andrea. Andrea Nicole Hall" she said and smiled at me and I smiled at her too " nice to meet you " I said to her, " you too " and smiled at me once again
