The next day we got up early to go to a garage sale because usually home appliances are super cheap there.

We hopped in my grey kia sportage and drove around looking at various garage sale signs but only stopping at one. It was a few blocks away from our apartment. A big house with a lot of items on folding tables split in different sections.

I parked in front on the house and Bobbie and I stepped out. I walked up to her and said, "Never seen anything like this, eh?" She shook her head still looking at everything. "It's like an outside store! But outside!" Bobbie said in awe. I giggled a bit at the remark and that she made sure I knew that this store was in fact, outside.

We approched the driveway and waved at the owner and her little corgi. Bobbie instantly ran over to the little dog spooking it, but she didn't care. Bobbie was in pursuit and she was GONNA pet that dog no matter what.

"Bobbie! Get your ass back here!" The owner watched in amusement as she witnessed a twenty-eight year old woman chasing an eight year old child, chasing a small dog. I gave up on the chase and walked back up to the dog owner. "That little shits fast." She chuckled a bit. "So is bell. Rather she'll catch her or wear herself out tryin'." The woman laughed. I shoot a wide-eyed look at the woman. "Rather she'll catch her or wear out the DOG trying. That child can go for hours." The woman looked back at me curiously. "Wanna bet?" I nodded. "I got twenty on the child" the woman smiled. "Twenty on the dog."

We watched as Bobbie chased the poor dog all around the yard. It's been about a minute and Bobbie hasn't even slowed down a bit. "Holy hell...what do you feed your kid?" The woman joked. "I don't. The kid feeds herself." I threw back. She laughed a bit and continued watching the chase. "Ya mind if I look around a bit?" I said. "Not at all." She responded. I walked over to the clothes and looked at what was on the table next to it. Hair products such as hair spray and brushes. "That's a great way to get lice." I mumbled to myself. My eyes wondered over to the jewels next to it. The first thing I saw was a pearl necklace, I cringed at the thought of putting on jewelry.

"Hey babe." The woman called. I looked over at her and she pointed in front of her. I looked at what she was pointing at  and it was a small child holding a panting corgi in the grass.

I wasted no time in telling the woman off. "Ha! Now didn't I tell you!" I pointed at her. And then at my child. "That fucker photosynthesises!" I aimed my finger back at her. "You thought the sun would slow her down because it's hot! Dead wrong bitch!" I bounded over to her, wrapped my arm around her and held out my hand expectantly. "My twenty goes here." She looked at me with a dumb smile plastered on her face. "How old are you?" She asked. "I'm almost thirty." I admitted. She chucked, reaching her hand in her back pocket. "Okay, you win."

She pulled out her walet and handed me a twenty plus a five. "Why the five?" I said. "You're kinda cute." She winked and walked away leaving me slightly blushing. I looked over to see my kid suffocating the dog with love. "Bobbie!" I yelled, she perked up. "Yeah?" I waved her over and she came running. "Go find something for your room." I gave her the five and she scurried off with it while I slipped the twenty in my pocket. I sat down and pulled out my phone to find text from my friend, Kate.

'What?' I think to myself upon seeing the random message. I let out a giggle that quickly turned into a laugh. "You're laugh's adorable." A voice said behind me. I quickly stood up and whipped around stumbling a bit but the strange woman caught me in her arms. "Okay." I said standing up and walking in the direction of my car. "I gotta go." The woman yelled back. "What about your kid?" I smirked. "Keep her."
