Sitting in the back seat of the car was a pain, I mean a pain in my bum. We were driving, for four hours, leaving my old life back in Phoenix, and starting a new life in Santa Carla.
My adoptive mother Lucy was driving. She had strewberry blond hair, styled into a pixie hair cut. Lucy's eye's are dark blue, also an tanned creamed skin. The think I loved about Lucy was, she is always bright, always smiling, lighting up our day. Till the day she caught my adoptive father John, was with another woman. It had to be Linda from next door, which she has a son the same age as Sam and a loving husband. It broke Lucy's heart, and torn our family apart.
Lucy has two son's, youngest Sam, at the age of fourteen, and the middle child, Michael, at the age of eighteen.
Sam had mousy blond hair and blue eyes. His obsession is, that he collects comic books. He reads Superman, but he has also been looking for Batman number fourteen. He also has a dog called Nanook, who follows him where ever he goes.
Michael well, that's a different story. When we were kids, me and Michael was close, but after the divorce, he changed into a different person. He went cold towards me and Sam, he looked at us, as in "weak", sometimes it scares me. Michael has brown curly hair, and brown eyes, sometimes when he is angry they look black.
I'm very happy that me and Sam are still close.
About me, my name is Ellie. I have long blond hair, and dark green eyes. I love anything Rock "N" Roll, my favourite artist is David Bowie. Also, I'm not into comic books, but I love to read horror novel's.
As we were close to Santa Carla, I could smell the ocean air. It made my eye's water a little, that I am not use to the smell. I closed my eye's, relaxing to the breeze blew onto my skin, cooling me down. Then I was disturbed, by the sound of the radio switching stations.
"Sam, I like that song" Lucy said.
"Keep going mom" I replied.
"Oh, how about this" Lucy said.
I think she was joking with the classical music.
"Keep going" Michael mumbled.
"This pretty jam's" Sam butted in.
"Bad taste in music, kids" Lucy said.
We all laughed.
"Keep goinggg" I sang.
"Hold on, this is from my year..." Lucy said.
We were waiting for her to sing.
"...Grooving on a sunday afternoon" Lucy sang.
"Keep going" We all said.
We all laughed, part from Michael.
"Were almost there" Lucy said.
"YAY" That was my replie.
"What's that smell" Sam replied.
"Oh, that's the ocean air" Lucy replied and inhaling the salty small.
"Smells like someone died, also smell's like after when Ellie is finnished out the bathroom" Sam joked.
They all laughed.
"You little shit" I snapped.
"It's true. Isn't it mom" Sam wined.
"True" Lucy agreed.
I crossed my arm's over my chest. I wasn't going to speak to them.
"Sam, don't tease your sister, you know she is close to her period" Lucy joked.
"Mom" I wined.
They all laughed.
We came to a sign saying "Welcome to Santa Carla" I was happy we were finally here.
"Yay, we finally here" I said.
I turned to look at back of the sign and my eyes widened. It said at back of the sign in red spray paint "Murder Capital Of The World"
"You're shitting me" Sam sounded scared.
"Sam, language" Lucy snapped.
"It's english" I joked.
"Gas" Lucy said.
"What" I replied.
"We need gas for the car"Lucy replied.
"Can we stretch our legs" Sam asked.
"Sure. But don't go to far" Lucy warned.
We got out the car, and I walked around stretching my legs, and rubbing my numb behind. I looked at the "strange people". Women walking around in nothing, but their bakini's, men wearing big thick leather jackets.
"How can they wear something that think, in this heat" I thought.
"Mom, there's an amusment park across the beach" Sam said.
"That's the boardwalk" Mam replied. She sounded tired.
"Sam, can you tell those kids to get something to eat" Lucy asked.
She passed Sam some money out of her purse. I looked to where they was looking, and I saw two kids, a boy and a girl, looking threw a bin for food.
"That was kind of you" I said.
"A mother's gotta do, what a mother's gotta do" Lucy said.
We hugged and she let out a big sigh.
"Okay kids, let's go to dad's" Lucy said.
