Chapter 1- I start the ride of my life
OK, my home in the country was peaceful, quiet and comfortable. I have my 2 best friends ever living their, who I've known for all my life.
My life used to be planned. I had a guy who I liked and it probably would have worked out. I could fulfill my dream job of being a artist….
BUT, no! My parents had to move.
After this out burst I think its polite to introduce myself, my name is Mirika Takeo (Yes my family is Japanese…) Age 13, almost 14!
I've lived in Britain, around Suffolk. It is so peaceful where my family lived. It's a spacious bungalow with a view of nearby fields. BUT then we moved.
You see my dad has wanted to take my family back to Japan for a long time, sure I liked those rare visits to my grandparents, but my life has always been here.
And out of the blue my dad comes home from work and announces that were getting on the next plane to Japan.
My face went from shocked to livid. This was because I realized that this meant probably not seeing my friends again. And that was not a positive thing in my world.
My mum didn't seem to mind the idea, because the move wouldn't affect her career as a manga artist. And my little brother didn't care less. (He's only 3 after all)
So now I'm on the plane to Japan, watching my home, for the past 9 years, disappear out of sight.
