My friend Shell was throwing a party, and I'd gone over to her house early. She was talking to me, and she mentioned something about when I went to pick people up. I asked who I was supposed to pick up, and she looked surprised, and said that our friend Callum had told her that those of us with cars would pick up everyone else, and that I was supposed to pick up 4 people, none of whom I'd met more than once. I told her that Callum hadn't asked me to pick anyone up, and that I wouldn't have agreed even if he had, because I wasn't going to be a free taxi for people I didn't know. Shell said that was fair enough, and she totally agreed with me, and that she had no idea he hadn't spoken to me.Later on, our friend Kelly turned up and started complaining that I hadn't picked people up, but I told her I wasn't going to go. She said they wouldn't be able to get to the party if I didn't, and I told her it wasn't my problem, because I didn't even know these people, and because i was angry that Callum had told them I'd pick them up without even speaking to me. Kelly started crying and stomped off. I went into the kutchen and was talking to Shell, and my other friend Michelle. I told them that i didn't mind driving them round, because they were my friend, but nobody else ever asked nicely, or said thank you, or offered me any money for petrol. They both agreed with me, and we went outside.
We were all standing on a hill at the side of Shell's house, chatting and drinking - there were about 15 of us. My friend Sam arrived, and she looked really angry. She stormed straight towards me, and deliberately bumped into me. I said sorry to try and start a conversation, but she just climbed down the hill and went inside the house. A few minutes later, she came back out with two women in old-fashioned prom dresses. She said they were her cousins, and that at Sam's 18th party a few weeks ago, they'd both seen me talking to Sam's mum's (now ex-) boyfriend, Shaun. Sam said "Don't you think it's weird, for a 19 year old to spend so much time talking to a 31 year old?", so I said "How do you know it wasn't the 31-year-old who was talking to the 19-year-old?". She looked angry and went back inside the house. Shell and I took the opportunity to leave, and we walked into town.
As we arrived in town, we saw a market stall which sold sweets. I saw some lollies I wanted, and some little round colourful things. We got into the queue, and I picked a bag of candy letters, a bag of two lollypops, a lollypop covered in chocolate and sprinkles, some weird chocolate bars which looked like they had coconut on, and a couple of other bags. I asked the owner if he had any more of the colourful sweets I'd seen - the bag was gone and I assumed the man in front of me had bought them. The shopkeeper told me that they were actually candy letters in a midget gems bag, and that the bag had broken. He added up all the sweets and it came to £1:70. I thought that must be wrong, so I assumed he'd meant £17:00. I gave him a £20 note, and he gave me loads of change in pound coins, so i realised it must have really come to £1:70 after all.
Additional Comments:
The ages Sam was talking about were wrong - Sam said she was 18, but she's actually 21. She said I was 19 when I'm actually 23, and she said Shaun was 31 when he's actually 37.
