"So now where are we going, kids?" Barb asked as they got into her van and sat in the very back. Once again Phil gestured for Keely to decide.
"Next is... Tanger Outlets. Oh, wait, that's a little too far..." she said disappointedly.
"Oh, no, it's okay," Barb said. Keel smiled.
"Okay, thanks Mrs. Diffy."
"You're welcome, Keely." Then Barb turned on the music and Keely sang along once again. Lindsay Lohan was on this time.
I never walked on water, never saw
A reason to be going out that far
I never found a star that made a wish
But now the sky is listening to my heart
They can break me, make me
If they want they can chase me
Love me, hate me, I don't care anymore
Til you, I was nothing but lonely nights
There was nothing but sad goodbyes For me to fall through
Come true, my dreams are awakening
Somebody is making me The only one in the room
What nobody could do
Nobody til you
Nobody til you
And the more you talk, the less I fear
No matter what you say we are still in the same hemisphere And there's comfort in just knowing that
Wherever I go a part of me is staying here with you
So take me, shake me
If you want, you can chase me
Love me for me and stay away from the door
Til you, I was nothing but lonely nights
There was nothing but sad goodbyes For me to fall through
Come true, my dreams are awakening
Somebody is making me The only one in the room
What nobody could do
Nobody til you
What kind of world would it be
If you ever went away
And I can't go back to what I had
Cuz it'll never be the same
Til you, I was nothing but lonely nights
There was nothing but sad goodbyes
For me to fall through
Come true, my dreams are awakening
Somebody is making me The only one in the room
What nobody could do
Nobody
Til you, I was nothing but lonely nights
There was nothing but sad goodbyes For me to fall through
Come true, I'm awakening, it's shaking me
Nobody knew what to do Nobody til, nobody til you
There were lonely nights
Til you, there were sad goodbyes
Come true, I'm awakening, it's shaking me Nobody knew what to do
Nobody til, nobody til you
'That was the perfect song for Phil and me,' thought Keely. She smiled at that thought, hoping for Phil to think the same thing. As they waited for another song to come on the radio, they all talked about Christmas again.
"Mrs. Diffy? What do you want for Christmas this year?" Keely asked.
"Keely, you don't have to get me anything," Barb said politely.
"I want to," Keely said.
"Oh, thanks Keely, you're so sweet. Um... I really don't know what I want yet."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"Okay, well let me know when you do. What about Pim and Mr. Diffy?" Keely asked.
"You're buying for them, too?"
"Yes," Keely said as she looked out the window.
"You're so generous, sweety. Well I know that Pim wants Lady X's cd"
"The one I have or the old one?"
"The one you have, she already has the old one."
"Okay... Mr. Diffy?"
"Not sure yet."
"Okay." Then she turned to Phil. "What about you? What do you want?"
"I want... I really don't know yet either." Keely sighed.
"You people need to make up your minds. Christmas is just around the corner! I have a complete list of things I want."
"Like what?" Phil asked.
"An iPod, clothes, a few cds, and a boyfriend," she said jokingly. 'Did I include "you" in that sentence?' she thought.
Phil laughed and hugged Keely as they arrived at Tanger Outlets.
