Prologue
"I wish you didn't have to go." My girlfriend, Angela, said as we walked out of my now empty house.
"Me too." I said. We weren't going to break up. We would try to make the long distance relationship thing work.
"Are you sure you guys can't stay?" She asked, worried a bit. I nodded. I had asked my father a lot if we really had to move. He gave me the same answer every time. Yes. A tear dropped from out the corner of her eye. I wiped it away and she threw herself into my arms.
I held her tight as my dad honked the car horn. Unloving bastard, can't let me have a few minutes with my girlfriend.
"Don't worry; he said we might be back in a year." I said and reluctantly let her go. I kissed her once then walked to the car. She followed me like a lost puppy.
"Bye." She whispered as I got into the car.
"Bye," I said closing the door.
"I'm sorry you have to say good bye dear, but your father needs this job." My mother said trying to make me feel better.
"I know," I said as the car drove forward and I lost all sight of home.
