Creating Little Chloe (My Little World Book 8)

“Your parents are going to kill you!”  My best friend, Lana, shook her head as she watched my pack my duffel bag.
“I should have ran away when I turned eighteen.  I’ve wasted two years in Charlotte and where has that got me?  I’m failing out of school and I can’t even get a spot as an extra in a movie, much less the starring role.”  I tossed several pairs of panties on top of the socks and t-shirts already in my bag.
“You can’t get frustrated because you got turned down for one role.”  She sat down on the bed and folded her legs.  “This is crazy.”
“I’m twenty years old—I deserve more than North Carolina—I deserve California.”  I went back to my dresser and grabbed a few more necessities.
“Do you realize how many pretty girls are in California chasing that dream?  You won’t end up on a magazine cover or a movie poster just because you show up.  At least finish college.  You could do better if you applied yourself.”  She tried to be the voice of reason, even if I wasn’t really interested in hearing it.
