PART ONE - Forever is what I meant.
Beep, beep, beep. Your alarm clock went off for the fifth time. 'Oh
crap' you thought to yourself. The small digital clock read 9:30am.
You were still jet-lagged from the journey.
Somehow you managed to drag your drowsy body out of bed, with a lot of
effort needed. For a minute you were confused about where you were,
you blinked multiple times while staring at the
cieling, 'oh yeah' you remembered you were in California in your new
step dads mansion.
You felt odd, you weren't used to a bedroom so large, you prefered
your original, squishy, messy, posteterd room. You remembered back to
the last day you had spent in that room.
*Flashback* Your mom walked in and said "Honey, have you packed all
your belongings?" she smiled sweetly, you couldn't remember the last
time she had been this happy. That was the only reason you agreed to
move in the first place, for your mothers happiness. She hadn't smiled
like that since her and dad were still together. Your dad left a while
ago, back when you were five. You had a very vague memory of him, your
mom got full custody of you. You never bothered going to see him every
holiday break, he didn't either... maybe it was because he lived back
in Australia, but then again he never visited you when you lived there
either.
The sound of your door opening caused you to stop daydreaming. You
examined the room, very spaced, light shade of pink walls, huge bed,
flat screen, balcony, bathroom and walk in wardrobe. You felt tiny,
this was all too much, and it was really uneeded. You walked out to
the balcony and looked outside, first thing you realise was the beach,
it was like your backyard. You then noticed a big tree next to your
balcony, climable you thought toTechnically, I'm single. But my heart
is taken by someone I can't call my own. yourself. You looked further
down to see a pool and spa, you don't want this.. 'I want to go back
to Australia and jump on the trampoline in my tiny backyard, I miss
jumping on it and throwing water bombs at the neighbors roof with my
bestfriend, Katie.' you thought to yourself.
Tears welled up in your eyes as you reminisced. "Sweetie..?" said a
voice. You quickly wiped away your tears and turned around to see your
mom leaning against your bedroom door staring at you. "Yeah mom?" you
croaked. She walked up and hugged you. "You're going to be late for
school, darling." she said sweetly while gently brushing your back. "I
already am." you said while laughing through tears. "Well, you don't
have to go if you don't want to, I mean-" she started. "Mom.. I got
this" you interrupted. She smiled and walked out.
