216-There Is A Hope!

Akin dropped me home as I have asked him to do. Pamela and my mother seemed to have gotten into a heated argument, but by the time I arrived home, the two had calmed down and were waiting for me. Mom was in her room while Pamela was outside the house, nervously waiting for my arrival.
