"Are you sure you want to come? I'm fine with going by myself." I yell out to Mom who's in her room getting ready.

I'm out in the living room, sitting on the couch already dressed in my suit and tie, semi patiently waiting for her.

The party starts at seven. The time is now, 6:39. I've been ready and waiting for Mom for about ten minutes now. I don't understand why it takes women so long to get ready. Girl logic I'll never understand I guess.

"I'll be out in a minute, honey!" Mom yells back to me.

She's said that three times now. She probably should've started getting ready around five so we could leave on time. I don't know if Nates coming. He never gave us a straight answer whenever we asked him.

I pull out my phone and text Ayla.

I told Mom that Ayla would man the cafe, if Mom wanted to go to the party

I told Mom that Ayla would man the cafe, if Mom wanted to go to the party. Mom was a little iffy on it at first but Ayla convinced her that everything would be fine. So, Ayla's over at the diner keeping her promise.

My phone dings. I grab my phone and unlock my phone before I see who texted me but I think I already know who it is.

I put my phone back in my pocket just as someone knocks on the front door

"Hey, Scott, can you get that, please?" Mom yells out to me.
