Chapter 1
Moving?
"What," I said with my usual monotone voice, "Why are we moving? What is it because of me?" My mother looked at me with a confused look but shook her head.
"No, Jewel, it's not your fault. Why would you say that?" She replied shaking her red head. Now then I bet you are wondering who I am right. Well I am Jewel Jefferson Parker. And I live with my mother, father, and 3 brothers (Thomas, Brian, and my twin Christopher). Right now we live in a lovely town called Carlisle in Pennsylvania but apparently we are moving. I hate moving. I hate it sooooooo much. "Mom why are we moving and where are we going?" I asked not planning to answer my mother. She looked at me then realizing that I wasn't about to answer her she answered me.
"Well, we are going to South Park, Colorado." She said with a little too much happiness on her voice. I looked at her for what felt like an eternity then finally busted out laughing. "HaHa, that's funny for a second there I thought you were serious." I said though the giggles. As I got up from the ground still slightly giggling I saw that she wasn't kidding. "You were just kidding right?" I asked with my smile fading slowly. As expected she shook her head again with her short red hair flopping around on her head. "WHAT? WE ARE LEAVING THIS STUPID TOWN JUST TO GO TO ANOTHER RUN DOWN TOWN!?" I screech earning a nice slap from mom. "Don't you dare talk to me like that again, missy," she said with danger on her voice, "we are going there because your dad got a job as a clerk in Wal-Mart there ok? Now go to your room and start packing, Now."
Fuck her. I thought with bitterness. That means I'm going to have to find new friends and we all know that's not happening any time soon while we are there. I got everything in boxes with only a day to say good bye to my "friends". I sat on my bed then laid back on the bare mattress slowly drifting to sleep.
