As I woke up the next day all I could think of is watching my Dad walk away. Would he be back? Every time I had seen them fight they always made up. What was so different this time? I got out of bed and made my way down stairs pausing as I heard My mom and brother talking.

"Mom, He has to talk to the women at work. Its part of his Job, He IS the boss." I heard Alice say in a hushed tone. "So does that mean I am just suppose to be ok with it?" Mom shouted. "I cant talk to you when all you want to do is shout Mom. Please stop, before Rose hears you." Alice said softly. "Too late." I called from the steps. "I'm hungry Allie. Can I have cereal?" I ask. "Sure thing Rosebud." Allie said lifting me up to pick out what kind I wanted. I settled on fruit loops. As Allie sat me down I noticed boxes.

"What's those?" I asked pointing to the boxes. "Its your Dad's things," Mom replied, "I packed it last night. Now all he has to do is get it and go." I looked up as tears welled up in my blue eyes. "he isn't coming back?" I squalled. Allie ran over and scooped me up. "Rosebud, Mom and your Dad are not going to live together anymore. He is gonna get his own place where you will have a whole other bedroom there at his house with toys and all kinds of good stuff." Allie said while wiping my tears away.

Just then Chris walked in with my Dad following, Chris must have been riding his bike again. He loves his bike. "DADDY!" I yelled springing from Allies arms, "When can I see my new room?" I asked excitement clear from my voice. He kissed my head and laughed. "I have to get it set up first Rosebud." "Oh, ok. Can I have a big bed?" I asked. Dad laughed again, "sure thing kiddo, You just have to let me get it all set up first, ok?" "Ok Daddy!" I ran off to finish eating.

I sat at the table and watched him carry out his things, Mom never saying a word. She eventually went upstairs to get away from it all. After Dad left I overheard Momma talking on the phone. "Yes Mom I am sure….No I havent told the kids….Rose will be fine. She will still see Him….We havent worked out visitation yet…I think your right I need to be closer to you. Start looking for a place for us. I need to let Carlisle and the kids know what I have decided. I love you mom. Talk to you soon."

We are moving to Carthage,Tn I like Cookeville though. My friends are hear, My dad is hear. I don't say anything as mom tells Chris and I we are moving all I keep thinking is when I am gonna see my dad again. "ROSE!" Mom shouted. "Sorry Momma, what did you say?" I asked. "Your dad will be seeing you every other weekend." she said. I nodded and said, "When do I get to go?" "After he is settled in his place and we are settled in ours." Mom answered. "Ok, Can I go play now?" I ask. "Sure thing sweetie." Mom said.

I can only wonder how things are going to be now that we are moving. This place is all I know. I know we have lived other places but I was too young to remember that. Time started flying by before I knew it we were settled in our new place. I had started going back and forth every other weekend from Carthage to Cookeville. I have already made friends in both places. Before I knew it weeks, months even years are going by me.
