hey Tiba do you want to go with me and your sister Ashley
I look at my phone and I just got told that Wonder Woman got canceled oh shit no
She looks at you with a frown Really? You had plans today?
Sure! I would love that! I hug her
aww good!
She hugs back
I'm gonna tell Ashley, so be prepared to hear a lot from her
I would love too! But don't call me Tiba, call me wonder. Mom... I say shyly
ok sorry wonder
so are you ready to hit the open road with us?
I don't know mom, it's kind of last minute
please come with us we'll take good care of you and it'll be fun promise
I look at them excitedly Yes! Yes I do! Can we drive out to the Grand Canyon?
"Yeah, we can go to the Grand Canyon, it's one of the states we're gonna be passing by."
I can't mom. I put my phone down I'm really busy this week. I sigh as I say sorry
She looks at you with slight disappointment.
Really? You're always too busy to spend time with your family. Can't you take a break for once?
I don’t know… I shrug It depends on where we’re going
"How about we go to California, Arizona, Utah, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska"
Tiba is my nickname I can't mom. You know that. I have work.
looks disappointed
Aww c'mon sweetie! Just this once?
wonder is four years old yea! I wanna goooo!!
that's great! I'm glad you're excited!
Ashley: oh come on wonder you'll be stuck in the backseat for hours.
Linda: don't listen to her wonder! The road trip will be so much fun!
I'm 15 mom. No way you're taking me across state lines. That's illegal.
"oh come on Tiba! It'll be fun! I promise we won't do anything crazy."
I would love to mom! Thank you for asking me along! I smile big
I'm glad you're excited honey, I know how much you love traveling with us. And besides, it'll be a lot of fun! We'll see so many new places and have so many adventures together.
Tiba is my 2 year old daughter sure!
ok good! I was worried you would say no
how about we start tomorrow morning?
Yes please! I've been cooped up for too long. I smile
she smiles back
Yay! I know how you feel! We're gonna have so much fun.
I'd love to but I have work! I say sadly
"awww come on baby can't you just take some time off for us??"
