Wish Upon A Star Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Buffy got her backpack and her cellphone. I Buffy Summers, no wait, Liz Parker will enjoy this. No slaying. But Riley! I'm going to miss him. And she, I better not make a move on him like Faith did. I can't tell anyone yet. Once I'm ready to be me again I'll contact her, me. This is confusing. And I have a test today?

Honey Maria is here, Nancy said.

Buffy finished gathering her stuff and gave her mom a kiss which caught her off guard. Have a nice day mom, Buffy told the older woman. She genuinely missed her mother. Joyce died of a complication after she had brain surgery. Buffy was the one who found the body of the woman. She was surprised and shocked that she said body. Everyone from that point on would call their mothers and take advantage of the time they had with them. Buffy was a wreck after that. She didn't think she could survive without her. Having someone to call mom is nice again, she thought.

Buffy stepped out of the Crashdown. The Crashdown? Pretty cheesy cafe. I bet I work here. The New Mexico heat hit Buffy hard. Sunnydale had weird weather. She was always in boots and a jacket, but here was different.

Hey Liz, said Maria, Are you ready for the test today? I heard its going to be a hard one.

Um test? Buffy played it off, What test?

Liz Parker! Do not tell me Ms. Smarty Pants forgot about the test? Maria yelled while pulling out of the cafe.

Sorry Liz if I do badly on the test. I really don't want your life to be screwed up. Buut since you're such a smart person maybe MY grades will go up. I'll do my best, Buffy thought.

The biology test you've been studying for since like 3rd grade, Maria said making a turn.

Oh, right, the Bio test, Buffy said sinking into the seat in fright.
