Dedicated to Emerald of the sea since this one shot was an idea she gave me to write about.
The palm trees sway slowly in the summer air, the sun shines leaving no crevice, no place without light. There is not a single memory of a cloud, not even a single wisp, in the beautiful Californian sky. I walk over to the railing which separates me from the beach. The sand is golden yellow and the calm rolling sea is green blue .My hair whips my face as the winds flies by. Here I, Dawn Schafer, am completely and utterly content.
Suddenly a cold wind chills me to the bone. My eyes fly open, this isn't sunny warm California. I peep out the window. It looks like hell out there, no hell is hot, and it is an absolute blizzard out there. I see streams of white and blue ice swirl up into the mushroom coloured sky. Ughh... Stoneybrook.
My divorced parents told me to be happy. I love my mom, Richard and Mary Anne especially. But I miss Dad, Jeff, Sunny, her parents, my old baby sitting charges there. In Stoneybrook, Im an 'individual' just because I would rather eat cherries than chips, there I fit in. I don't HAVE to be different there; I don't HAVE to be a 'Californian casual' dresser there.
I know what I want and it's not this. I have made my decision, California is where I belong. I have to go tell mum before I start thinking too much
"Mom I-"I begin.
"Hi Dawnie. I have made your favourite dinner" she smiles and continues peeling potatoes. "Are you ok?" She says concerned when I fail to reply.
"Yeh."
"Remember Dawn you can tell me everything. I love you." Mum says smiling affectionately.
"Love you too" I reply. I can't do this to mom again. Do I need California? Do I really? Maybe I should stick it out for mum....just for a while...
PLEASE REVEIW! THANKS
