"Yes mom I know...." Tia Banks shouted to her mother as she plopped down on her couch. Her mom was frantically running around the house trying to make sure everything was prepared. She was acting like it's the first time they ever left Tia home.
"I'm leaving money if you guys want pizza or something for dinner, okay?" She rolled her eyes. "Mom! Just leave already! I'm 18 I think I can handle you not being here for a weekend. Jeez, I'm curious on how you'll act when I move out this fall..."
Her mom stopped in front her blocking her view of the TV. "I thought we agreed you'd spend your first year at college living here."
"No, Dad already paid for my dorm. We just didn't want you to know because you'd freak out... like you are now." But Tia understood why her mom freaked so much. Her older sister was killed in a car accident when she was 12 and ever since her parents have babied her.
Her mom's lips formed a thin line as she stared at Tia. "We'll we will have to talk about that when we get back...." She turned quickly and shouted up the stairs. "Darling, it's time to go!"
Her father came down the stairs and gave Tia a kiss on the forehead then picked up his suitcase. "Call us if you have any problem, we have our phones on us, alright dear?"
She nodded and watched as they walked toward the door. She looked at the clock and knew her friend would be here soon. "Don't worry about me, I won't be alone for long anyways..." She shouted at them as she flipped through channels.
