June 9, 8:00 AM

I get up, I feel like shit again but that doesn't matter right now, what does is that my throat is the Sahara desert right now. I walked over to the bathroom half asleep and get some water, while I do that my brother walks in and starts undressing for the shower.

"Dude, you got nothing to show off, why don't you just wait till I leave?"

"Because it's my bathroom too." I sigh and then leave, but I probably won't be able to fall back asleep so I just lie there.

9:15 AM

My brother barges into my room and shakes me,

"Come on Kel! Get up!" I wake up

"Stop it already, I've been up since 8 and you know that!" He snickers and says

"Mom made pancakes so get up and grab some before I eat them all!" he snickers again then sneers, it's like a habit of his. I get up and go to the bathroom. I brush my hair then put it up in a ponytail and wash my face, I stare at my eyes and say, ew (again I know). I walk downstairs and go to the kitchen, and ask my mom

"Can I get some oranges to drink? No, wait, can I get some orange juice?" She stares at me

"You must have stayed up late last night" and then poured me a glass of homemade orange juice. I feel offended and say in a sarcastic voice

"I only stayed up till ten!"

She laughs and says

"Only ten." I give her a stink eye.

She gives me my orange juice and curses at the burning pancakes. I thank her and then sit down waiting for myself to wake up, maybe I should have asked for coffee. My brother stomps down the stairs with a shirt that says "Death city here I come!" I get annoyed just by looking at the shirt. I don't get to wear dark clothes, my parents want me to be their perfect Leo boy. My brother gets to wear whatever he wants, he can drive wherever he wants and he does whatever he wants it's unfair, he should be getting ready for college since he starts in a month, but no, he stays up till 3 am drinking and partying and then has his friends get him home just to be complimented by my father the next day. I mean they even let him dye his hair! I get irritated often by how unfair I am being treated. Once my brother gets to the last stair he slips and falls down that singular stair. I start laughing my head off, my brother very awkwardly laughs and stands up

"Are you ready for the first driving lesson?"I stare at him

"There is no way you are going to be my first driving instructor, I'm going to the school for my lessons"

He looked disappointed not going to lie but I felt a little bad. Mom breaks the uncomfy tension by saying

"Pancakes are ready!" I get ready to eat and see what wonderful pancakes my mom makes. I get 8 pancakes and my brother gets 10, not like that matters, I get annoyed and say nothing to him.

"I'm going out" Ma is suspicious

"With who?" I start thinking of names because I can't tell Ma I'm going with Leo to get clothes for the band that I am going to have to sneak out to see

"Oh, Kel told me some of his friends are going to an amusement park and he was invited" I pause my thinking for a second, and then agree with my brother and mouth the word "thanks" he nods and sneers. I head upstairs and get dressed, go back downstairs, and leave to the front door. My father never really agreed with Leo's family, only because he has two mothers.

10:30 AM

I told Leo to pick me up at the beginning of my neighborhood, so I walked over there and saw his car. I signaled to him that I'm good to go so he unlocked the car and let me in, then Leo drove to the clothing store. We get there and he shows me where the band's merchandise is. I got two shirts and checked out. He brings me back and then drives off. I walk back home, go inside the house, cover the clothes with my shirt, run straight to my room, and hide the clothes in my closet.

3:30 PM

I lay on my bed and get my phone that's hiding in my pillowcase (I told my father that I would only use it to contact them) and check the concert details. I'll have to sneak out. It's getting late, so I should pack my clothes and then sneak out around 9:00 pm.
