They know that I love my little brother. They know that I do not like my step-dad at all. And they know how much going to visit my father scares me. I am wearing a yellow checkered dress that looks like sunshine. The dress feels light, like thin cotton on soft skin.
Spicy aromas fill the air.
My front teeth are loose, but I don't think that the Taco Salad will make them fall out. I wonder if the tooth fairy will come even if I am buried in my bed full of stuffed animals. I truly cherish my stuffed animals. I wonder why I cling to them so tightly. Maybe because my mom has given them to me.
