s only thirteen years, I didn't consider expenses like education, medical and dental. Nevertheless, I paid for everything I bought for myself, candy, movie tickets, clothing and the like. My parents actually complained, saying they wanted to spoil me now and then but when I had decided on something, I stuck with it. The only exceptions were on my birthdays and Christmases.

"Good to see you again." He said and Marshal smiled.

This restaurant helped me relax and I went home that day ready to tackle that damn essay. So after that, I just kept coming back.
