Brrrr, brrrr

"Shut up" I said to my alarm clock but it continued ringing. So stubborn

"Fine, I'm up. Stupid thing" I said as I threw my covers over my body and put off my alarm clock. After brushing my teeth, I made my way downstairs for breakfast.

"Morning" I greeted my mom who was in the dining room as I entered the kitchen

"Morning" she replied.

Deciding to have pancake and syrup for breakfast, I microwaved the pancakes and took the syrup from the fridge. I was about to devour my delicious breakfast before I was interrupted,

"Alexandra, I need to tell you something" she said and I didn't need anyone to tell me before I knew that these something was very important considering

We dont talk apart from usual greetings, and I didn't know how I was going to feel about it

"What is it?" I asked giving her my full attention

"We're moving"

After a long pause, she finally said

"When?" I asked.

Exactly as I predicted, I didn't know how I felt so I didn't know what to say. I mean, I don't even have friends, I don't talk to anyone and there is no one I'm going to meet in school

"During the holidays" she said without meeting my gaze.

With a sign, I asked, "Which state are we moving to?"

"Sweetheart, we aren't moving out of the state, were moving out of the country"

"I'm sorry" was all she said

"You're sorry? Why are you sorry?"

"Why exactly are you sorry?!" I continued raising my voice as she didnt reply

"Alex..." she started but I interrupted her

"I've lived here all my life, mum, and now you just want me to move and say sorry as if that will just fix everything. For goodness sake, its not even out of the state but out of the country!!"

"It's for the better, dear. You can even get to be interact able and maybe make friend" she said

"Interact able?" I asked with a scoff,

"You want me to be interacting? Ive lived here all my life and Ive never been interacting able and now you think moving will make me interact able" (in quote) "and even make friends?" I asked with a fake laugh.

Seeing that she didnt say anything and I was not helping, I decided to calm down

"Where are we going?" I asked calmly and quietly

"Korea" she replied to stay with your grand mum

After a long pause,

"I'm going to school" I finally said and went upstairs to prepare for school.

There was no point staying to continue the conversation

^^^^^

"Alexandra, hurry up please. We wouldnt want to miss our flight, would we?" my mom shouted from the sitting room

"Does it look like I'm playing over here?" I shouted back from my room

After some time, I was finally ready
