“Well I’m sure I’ll find something at this school I can do…” She said with a sigh. She’d have to look the school’s extracurricular activities. Summer scoffed, the slightest hint of annoyance at the mention of her mother being worried. “She won’t. I doubt she’ll even be home. I’ve only been back here for a week or so… but she’s almost never home. She only works a few hours a day, but the rest of the time she’s out socialising. I guess I can’t blame her; she hasn’t had to be a mum for years now so she would have had to find something to do all day.”

She shrugged slightly as they entered the diner. She liked the feel of the place, it almost felt like walking back in time, back to when milk bars were the place all the kids hung out after school instead heading home and playing on the internet. “So there’s really no rush for me to get home. Means I have to start my homework sooner.” Summer said with a laugh as she followed Dick over to a table and glanced at the menu. They’d agreed on burgers and shakes but it never hurt to see what kinds were on offer. “Anything you’d recommend?” She asked, looking back over to Dick.
