You don’t
want your mom to see you like this, and quite frankly you really just don’t
want to talk to her right now. You have nothing to say to her, so you ignore
her knocking.
“Laura open
the door please” you hear her say.
“No stay
out, I don’t wanna talk right now” you try to sound like you haven’t just been
crying, but your effort is not worth it since she continues to knock. This is
where you get an idea. You get up and walk straight to you stereo. You pick out
an All Time Low album; you know exactly which song you should put on. The album
is their newest one; ‘Don’t Panic’, and the song is of course ‘The Reckless and
the Brave’. As you try to drown out your mother’s voice with the music you
little by little forget that you were sad. This is what the music can do to
you. You dance around in your room and don’t even realize that your mom has
opened the door and is now watching you. You turn around and see her laughing. Your
dad is standing right behind her smiling as well.
“What?” you
ask.
“It really
means that much to you?” your mom asks.
“YES!” you nod.
“Listen
sweetheart” she starts “I can’t tell you that I understand, but I can see that
this is actually something you really want.” She pauses and sighs. “You promise
to stay with Emily the whole day and throughout the concert?” Is she really
saying what you think she’s saying?
“Yes mom, I
promise not to leave her side for even just a second” you tell her.
“Okay then,
you can go, but on one condition.” A big smile just appeared on your face, you
didn't really care what the condition was; you had your permission now. “Keep
us contacted, we want to know how you are, or if anything happens, okay?”
“And you have to pay for the ticket yourself”
your dad buds in.
“I can do that.
Thank you, thank you, thank you” you say over and over again.
Before they
leave your room you tell them that Emily is coming over tomorrow, and they are
fine with that.
