Try to reason with her mom

"Liz, you in there? Hello?" Mom kept knocking as I stood helplessly in front of my door.

"Liz, I know you're in there, why aren't you opening the door? At least answer me!" Mom said loudly. getting annoyed.

Maybe I can talk my way out of this and hopefully Mom doesn't push any further. Mom continued knocking. Sighing, I knew I had to say something.

"Sorry Mom, I can't meet the neighbors right now! Maybe another time?" I suggested.

"Sweetie, what on Earth could you possibly be doing in there that prevents you from meeting our new neighbors?" Mom questioned.

"I... I just can't right now."

"For heaven's sake, just pause your TV show and come downstairs for like 5 minutes. Is that too much to ask?"

"In a way... yes."

"Why are you being so difficult? Just open the door this is getting ridiculous." Mom demanded.

"NO! I mean, I can't. I'm... not decent." I tried to explain

"Well get decent! That's not exactly a hard problem to fix."

"It's harder than you think, Mom"

"Is this about your clothes? I know you only have one outfit until tomorrow but Jack and Kim won't care about what you're wearing."

"I think they will."

"Lizzie, stop being so vague. What is going on?"

"Okay, fine. When I was taking a shower, one of my idiot brothers took the clothes I brought with me into the bathroom, along with all the towels. I came back and all my clothes were gone except for my shoes. I tried to get clothes from your room and Jeff and Connor's room, but your wardrobe and their room were locked."

"So....."

"I'm naked, Mom, and I have no clothes."

"I see... wow. Well, I'm gonna be honest, I didn't see that coming at all." Mom laughed.

"I'd hope not..." I quipped. "So, now that I got that out of the way... how about some clothes?"
