The mall was pretty boring. Mirio had brought up the idea of taking a camping trip with friends in the car and now it was all she thought about. She had always loved to travel just because it had been amazing to meet new people and try new foods.

Inside of the dressing room, Nejire called out,

"Is the cabin out of the city or inside?"

"Outside."

"Yes! You probably didnt know this but I love traveling. My parents love it but can hardly go outside of the country so we just drive around or take boat rides." She explained.

"I know Nejire." Mirio laughed. She put on her normal clothes again and left the store. They walked around for a bit longer.

"Mom!" She called her mother. Mirio had given her more details because he liked talking and she wanted to know more about this camping trip. They were leaving tomorrow. With how much her parents trusted her, somehow she'd be able to go. If she told them that Kaoruko, a twenty one year old, was there, they'd probably be ok with her going. As long as 'an adult' was going her parents probably wouldn't care.

Nejire explained everything to her mother and Mirio was trying not to laugh. Her mother kept shouting trying to understand and Mirio and Nejire didn't really care. They were too childish to really listen-

Her mom finally understood everything after ten minutes of explaining. Nejire was laughing the entire time. Nejire's mom agreed as long as she sent a picture of how she was doing every day. And no alcohol or drugs. Yeah if she saw that she'd probably drive out to grab Nejire herself.

Nejire then texted Ryuko. She had to make sure Ryuko didn't worry when she didn't go to class tomorrow.

Ryuko didn't seem to care much. She gave her a date though. It was the day Ryuko planned on trying on wedding dresses and getting bridesmaids dresses. She decided on an American or a 'white wedding'. Nejire was pretty excited. At the moment, Ryuko and her fiancé were picking colors, trying to work out a bunch of stuff, and Ryuko had to get a wedding dress months before the wedding. At the same time, she had to teach the older students. Last week when she taught, she seemed stressed out and tired. As if everything was horrible with the planning and she wanted to drop dead. Ryuko concerned everyone in the class and parents were telling her to take a break. She was only twenty six.

But yeah, Nejire was able to go camping! Yay!

When Mirio dropped Nejire off at her parents house, her mom welcomed her home. Mirio had already left and planned on picking her up at twelve of the next day. Her dad was baking cookies and her mom was looking at her computer. Her mom looked up to see Nejire chewing on a granola bar that Mirio gave her for no reason.

"Nejire, you should've told us at least a week beforehand. I only said yes because I know Mirio and Yuyu. I know they wouldn't let anything happen to you." Her mom said. "You know we don't like you in an area where you can easily get lost. Just stay safe, alright?"

"I'm not stupid Mom. I know how to call for help." Nejire laughed. Her mom laughed and kissed her forehead.

"If I don't get a picture, I'm going to pick you up myself."

"Ok mom!" She said and walked off. She went ahead to start packing her bags. It was a three night stay so she only needed like seven outfits.

Nejire took a second. At least thirty minutes. She couldnt find multiple outfits that looked good together. They must've been getting washed or under her bed. She grabbed her essential clothes and decided to wait for the laundry to end.
