Michelle isn’t having it

“For God’s sake, Lauren stop being such a child!” Michelle said, standing up from her chair. “This is just ridiculous. Stuffing your towel with a teddy bear? Throwing away money on padded clothing? Do you have anything to say for yourself? Tell me, Lauren. Do you regret any of this? You haven’t even attempted to apologize to me.”

Lauren said nothing, clutching her chest. Michelle stepped toward her. “Mom, it’s obvious that Lauren hasn’t learned her lesson,” Vanessa said. “She’s not going to stop lying if she can’t accept the truth.

You can touch her and do whatever you want to get a better view of her as well…”
