Nice story. I enjoyed reading it. The only part I didn’t like was the part where you wrote,
What am I good at? Well, let me think, Ms. Brunne. According to my mother, I’m good at styling hair. According to my father, I’m good at screwing things up. I guess that means I can either be a hairstylist or a screw up.
“I don’t know,â? I mumble, instead.
I dont think the instead part is necessary because the reader already knows it’s and aside.
