I was getting ready for school. For some reason, I have been extremely thirsty lately. I packed four 20-ounce water bottles in my lunchbox hoping my parents wouldn't notice. I also put one soda in there as well. As far as packing my water bottles, my mom and I came in and asked why I was taking so many. "Oh, I just wanted to share water with my friends". "Is that OK?" "Yes," my mother replied.

I started to walk to school only for my mom to stop me again. "Miriam, honey you forgot to pack food". "No thank you mom, I'm having school lunch today". I have not been hungry so I lied to her. I hate school lunch. By the look on my mother's face, I could tell she was confused. We looked at each other for about 30 seconds. Finally, she asked, "but you don't like School lunch"? I quickly interrupted, saying they were serving pizza from Pizza planet. The Elementary schoolers are coming today to tour the school before they transfer here in August. "Oh OK Miriam I never knew you guys had pizza" my mom replied. "It's the first year they are having pizza planet". "They kept serving things I didn't like the other years". "OK Miriam, just have a good day".

As I walked to school I looked back to see my mother's worried face. She knows something is up, I just don't wanna tell her quite yet. I will later because I think I will be fine. I will be fine. After all, it could just be puberty and me getting older. At least I think
