It's the end of the school day and Alice's dad came and picked her up. I just waited for my uncle to get here. My uncle pulls up and gets out smoking a cigarette and a teacher standing outside said something to him. "Sir you can't smoke on school grounds," the teacher said. My uncle gave the teacher a nasty look and threw his cigarette on the ground. "Get in the car," my uncle said getting in on the driver's side. I throw my backpack on the backseat. "So, you like this school shit," my uncle said putting off. "Kinda," I said quietly. My uncle briefly takes his hands off the wheel to light a cigarette. "So boy you got a boyfriend?" my uncle asked blowing smoke out the window. "I'm not gay," I said looking away from him. "Well, I just thought you were. If you just put a wig you would look just like a girl," my uncle said with a chuckle. I didn't say anything. "I'm just fucking with you boy," my uncle said with a fake laugh. All of a sudden the car stop in front of a gas station. "I need to go get something," my uncle said while he put his hat on and got out walking into the store. I waited while he went into the store.
When he came out he had a pack with cigarettes and a case of beer. He gets in and continues to drive. While taking the route to my house he goes somewhere different. When he stops we are on a cliff. "Get and let's watch the sunset," my uncle said. We sit down in front of the car. My uncle took a beer out and hand it to me. I was hesitant to take it at first but I went ahead and took. He took the cap off of it and I took a sip. The bitter taste filled my mouth and after every sip, it started to taste sweeter and sweeter. When the sun finally set and I went to stand up I immediately fell back down to the ground. My balance was off and my vision was blurry. I put my hands on the hood of the car to pull myself up. I slowly make my way around the car and into the passager side. My uncle gets in and takes me home. When we got home my dad was at the door and from the expression on his face, he was mad. I get my backpack out of the back seat and I stumble out of the car. When my uncle get out of the car my dad starts yelling at him but he is speaking Italian. I slowly walk inside and to my room.
