EFFORT

Sky's POV

I walked swiftly down the stairs with my bag slinged across my shoulder.

"Good morning father, mother", I greeted as I sat down at the dining table, dropping my bag next to me. Father barely grunted in reply as he flipped the pages of his newspaper.

"Good morning dear, you look different today", mother said.

"Really?", I asked feigning ignorance.

"Yes..you look decent?", she said.

"Are you trying to say I'm indecent? Wow, mother you just broke my heart you know that?", I told her as I pretended to be hurt.

"You know I didn't mean it that way", she laughed.

"I'm just saying you look different and it's a good different", she said and I smiled in response.

"I'll be taking Tiana to school today", I told her and she looked at me a spark of interest in her eyes.

"Oooh Tiana? That's nice", she said with a smile.
