As we get ready to get in the car, mom makes sure everyone is dressed and ready to go. "Ok everyone go get in the car. Melody come with me sweetie. The ride to the park is quite long, so let's go potty first just in case." I groan and stomp my way towards the bathroom. "Don't you dare give me attitude missy. I am just trying to save you from embarrassment. We do not want a repeat of earlier do we?" After we go the bathroom and finish up in the house, we meet everyone in the car and I'm trapped in the stupid seat again. As I swirm around I yell, " I hate this stupid seat. Why do I have to sit in it anyway?" Amelia grins and responds with some sass, "Why dear baby sister, we don't want our precious cargo to get hurt. What ever would we do if you were to get hurt or worse, die, all because we weren't responsible? I wouldn't even be able to live anymore if something were to happen to you." She finishes her little speech by backhanding Cassi on the arm as Cassi was minding her own business. "What do you want?" "Tell our sister dearest that we want her to be safe. She is trying to reason herself out of her seat."
Cassi turns and looks at me with comforting eyes and a warm smile. "Please just stay in the seat. I know you don't like it, but I really don't want to lose you anymore than I have too. I love you too much." I let out a large huff and cross my arms and mutter fine. "Someone is cranky. Maybe they should take a little nap during the trip," Dad says. And with that we leave to the amusement park.
We arrive around lunchtime to the park. Dad goes to buy the tickets while mom sprays us with sunscreen while we discuss where we want to eat. Dad comes back with the tickets as mom finishes spraying Cassi. She tells him, "The kids decided the want to have some pizza." Dad replies while pointing dramatically into the air, "Off to the pizza!"
