"What was that?" He came closer and closer as I step back with each step he took.
"What was what!? I can hang out with whomever I want, it's none of your business." I snapped when I felt a wall behind me. Of course the damn wall had to be there.

"No Amu, baby I can't let you drive. You're too young." My mom said with her eyes were in the road.
"You're so rude. I won't eat if you don't let me." I huffed and crossed my arms at my chest.
"Yeah yeah" she said parked the car. I wanted to keep being angry but I really wanted to drive.
"Please, only in parking lot. I swear this is the only time." I grabbed her hand and held it tight. "Please please please."
