OMG. I can't believe that I spoke with Issa! Should I tell my friends? What if they don't believe me? When should I FaceTime him?
I go to his snapchat story and see that he updated it. He was at a party. He still is over there. He has a meetup with his fans at 10 AM today. I think that he's going there right now. I check the time in my phone. It's 9:50. I'll bet that he's already there. I wish I could go to one of his meetups. It would be so much fun.
I decide to get dressed in up-to-my-knees leggings, and another sweatshirt, but blue this time. I don't take off the makeup, and I don't take out my ponytail either. I eat some toast for breakfast, say bye to my mom, get in my car, and drive to Walmart.
I go to the cosmetics section to see all the makeup stuff there and think about what Issa said to me.
"I actually don't think that any girl should wear makeup," he said.
But I really want to buy this new nude lipstick.
I don't.
Instead, I get what I came to get: some pads and a box of chocolate chip cookies.
At the checkout, as I buy the stuff that I needed, the cashier--he looks to be about my age--says to me, "It's gonna be ok."
