I'm back at the children's home. It's my last few days here, and I'm actually going to miss this place.

My mother's will was read (I really don't know how they managed to get the letter my mother left before the reading of the will). I'm to get everything she owned, but I'll have to wait until I'm eighteen to inherit them. My father is to get sole custody of me (if he didn't, Aunt Brooke and Uncle Ethan would've been my guardians).

I'm going to miss everyone one, but most of all, I'm going to miss the city and all the memories I have in it, and it's a lot considering I've lived here my entire life.

I'm going to miss Grandpa Eddie and all the stories he always tells me about his life when he was younger. It's still kinda creepy that all the girls used to fight over him, but he's my grandpa, so it's hard to imagine him being young, or even hot (now that's just gross!).

I'm going to miss Grandma Alice a lot too. She teaches me stuff that she taught Emily,  my mom and Uncle Ethan. Can you believe she couldn't stand Grandpa at first? I mean, for someone who couldn't stand a man, she's surely in love with him now (yeah, that's kinda gross too!).

Uncle Ethan and Aunt Brooke are like second parents to me, so it's going to be hard leaving them. Mom and Uncle Ethan were very close, so I spent a lot of time at their house. To Aunt Brooke, I was like the daughter she never had.

Lucy, even though she just came into my life two weeks ago, it feels as if I've known her forever. Leaving her feels like losing a piece of myself, which I'm guessing is how she felt when she lost Lucas. I just hope she'll be able to cope without me.

The persons I'll miss the most are Carly and Sienna. I never really fitted in with anyone. They are very different from me, and yet the same. They are my best friends, and have been since we were seven and eight (I skipped a grade). They could have been in the popular crowd, yet they chose to stay with me, the weird, skinny girl whom no one knew much about. For that, I'm really grateful for them. They've helped me to become the person I am today, and to be honest, if it wasn't for them, my mother's death would've probably meant mine as well.

I packed all my stuff. I was now on my way to a new life, new home, a new beginning.

A/N: I'm sorry this chapter is so short, but I really needed to update. I couldn't stand coming on to Wattpad everyday and seeing that my book hasn't been updated in a while. I've been sick for a week so my mind wasn't in the right place to write.

Please vote, it'll really mean a lot to me.
