When I got out of the shower I ran to my bedroom and changed out of my school uniform into a pair of slacks and my school sweatshirt. Downstairs I heard my mother greeting her "guests". Ugh, I stepped over to my radio and turned up the music that I wasn't even listening to. I knew that with my music blaring it would force my mom to come upstairs so quickly I turned it back down. I heard her footsteps coming up the stairs. I questioned myself and what to do, so I fiddled with my blowdryer and finally got it working and started blow drying my hair.
"Honey, Jacki... dear. It's your mom, come downstairs and meet Mark and Peirce." I heard my mother pleading outside the door. I turned my blowdryer on fullblast knocking out any other noise. She barged in, "Jacki! Stop that and come downstairs, and don't you embarass me." She ordered and walked out.
"Dammit." I whispered and threw my hair up into a bun, I started to walk out but, my feet felt freezing on the wood paneld floor. It must have been 80 degrees outside but inside it felt like I was going to die of frost bite. I put on my fluffy socks and went downstairs.
"Here she is, Mark and Peirce this is my daughter Jacki." Mark was tall, pale and had a big nose. He must be greek, I can tell.
"Hello there Jacki, this is my son Peirce." He pointed towards the kid next to him. His voice was deep and sounded too incontrol. His son was also tall but had a little bit of a tan to him, his punkish/rocker style caught my eye. But, I told myself not to show any type of attraction.
"Hi to the both of you," I said graciously even though I would rather reply with a "Go Home!" or "Get the f*#k out!" But instead, for my mothers sake I smiled.
"Oh you two should've been here earlier! She was a mess! I made her go take a shower she had bird dropping in her hair!" My mom laughed, and then they all laughed.
"Let the night begin" I said in my head as I took a seat and shoved my fork into the mashed potato.
