Preface

I've been missing my best friends, Jacob, Quil, And Embry. We've been friends ever since I can remember. When I first met them we were very little like 3 or 4. I've lived in La Push, Washington all my life well, most of it anyway. I've been moving back and forth from there and South Dakota. My mom is Sioux and my dad is Quileute. My mom lived in South Dakota and then came to Washington to come for a visit when she met my dad…My mom said it was instant love and they married very young. My mom's name is Julia and my dad's name is John. Oh, by the way my name's Shyla….Shyla Marie Clearwater. Today we're moving back to La Push. I wonder if my friend's will remember me….They probably won't…..
