London's POV
       I have gone through my email for the past 5 days and just as I expected I haven't gotten anything about the apartment. I'm really upset because I really like that place and it was like it was made for me. I know it's just a apartment but this is my chance for freedom, my chance to prove to my mom that I can take care of my self. "Hey sweetie you have a package." She said laying the box on my bed. "Thank you mom." I said as she left my room. When I opened the box I need a nicely wrapped box with a note attached to it.

        Hi princess I hope your having a amazing day because I know I am. I wish I could be there with you and one day I will see you guys and I hope that is soon. Now this birthday gift isn't like anything your mother has got you no Gucci, Chanel, or Louis Vuitton. This gift came straight from my heart. I hope your happy love you lots, see you soon!
~Dad

       When I unwrapped the box I instantly smiled. When I was younger my dad had always told me about this beautiful glass angle from a shop in his home town. It was purple with pink flowers and it meant courage and hope.  This gift was better than any Louis Vuitton bag I have ever gotten. To a lot of people this might be a cheesy corny gift but to me it means that my dad loves and cares for me enough to send me the same angle he used to tell me about when I was younger. I sat the angle on my vanity in front of my bed and then called my dad. "Hi dad, thank you so much for the gift it means a lot to me that you would go out of your way like that. Give me a call when ever you can." As soon as I finished my message I hung up.

       As I walked down stairs to get some lunch I heard my phone ringing. "Hello is thing London conners?" The lady asked. " Yes May I ask who this is?" I asked. "Oh I'm sorry this is Amy Grace I was the one that showed you around the apartment." She said. " Oh I'm sorry how can I help you? I asked. "I just called to let you know that you got the appointment you are free to move in any time before the first of next month." She said with joy. "Oh my god thank you so much." As soon as I hung up I started jumping up and down with excitement. Than I realized the first of the month is in three weeks. Which means I need to start packing

      "Hey mom guess what." I said as I walked in the kitchen. "What is it?" She asked. "I got the apartment!" I yelled with joy. "Oh honey that's great when are you leaving though?" Ashe asked with a frown. " I have to be there before the first which is In 3 weeks so I need to start packing." I said as I pull away from the hug. "We have some boxes in storage I'll go get them for you and we will start packing." She said with a smile. My mom and I where packing for about a hour and than she came across my angle. "London where did you get this it's beautiful. " she said as she picked it up. "Oh that's my birthday present from dad." The room went silent you can latterly hear a pin drop. "Mom you okay." I asked walking to her. "Yeah I'm okay let's finish packing." She said when she put the angle back on my desk.

      I don't know what happened in my room. I don't know if my mom was mad or upset but I didn't bother to ask because I know she wouldn't answer me. My mom and I got a lot of packing done I know I have three weeks but that gives us time to go shopping for home decor, groceries, and transport all of my stuff. My birthday is in 2 days and I'm really excited I got ahold of Kaylin and Mason last week and they agreed to take me to the club down the street from Masons house than we are just gonna hang out after words. I would have asked Maggie to come over and help my mom and I today but she's to busy getting ready for her One direction concert tonight. Sometimes I don't know what goes on in her head and I don't know if I even want to.

     When I walked in my room and seen all my stuff packed away and all that was left was my bed, TV, and stands. I sat on my bed and thought about how much I have to grow up in under a few weeks. When I live by myself doesn't only come with freedom it means I have to be more responsible. Take care of myself, clean up after myself and most of all make sure I stay alive. I've never lived alone let alone 20 minutes away from my family but I'm going to do this to prove to them that I'm not a baby and that I can take care of myself. The longer I thought he more tired I got. I hadn't even noticed I stayed up until 4 a.m soon I shut my eyes and fell asleep.

I'm sorry, this ones kinda short didn't mean to end it like that.
