New World

Chapter 2:WindyTown

We finally arrived at GaRbägê Town, but literally this place lives to its real name,WindyTown. It's so windy that it blows garbage that people litter on the ground everywhere, it stinks SO BAD. But my uncles penthouse is somewhere hidden from here...if you have enough money you can live far away from the main part of town. So we had to take a taxi there, me and Aunt Lucille chatted during the drive there.
Aunt Lucille: I really am sorry we have to move back there..I don't want to go back as much as you do.
Sydie: I know that..but-
I trailed off confused on why we had to move. I didn't want to make Aunt Lucille feel worse than how she feels right now so I just decided to stay quiet.
Aunt Lucille: So, Sydie how was school? Did you have fun? And your friends...you'll miss them won't you..?
I don't want to respond to that, maybe because I don't have any friends I never did..they just always avoid me,the other kids just look and stare like they haven't seen anyone dress like me. I always felt more comfortable with having my own comfort, I didn't need friends..at least I thought. I was just about to respond when we arrived at the penthouse. Aunt Lucille payed the taxi and we just starred at the penthouse. Neither one of us wanted to go up the staircase leading to the penthouse. I took a deep breath.
Sydie: Aunt Lucille-
Aunt Lucille: Sydie it's okay I'll step forward, no holding my hand now.
Aunt Lucille kind of mumbled something I couldn't understand, but she was firm when she spoke. I never thought she would be this brave up to now, I'm proud of her. So we walked up the stairway leading to the tall towering door in front of us. Aunt Lucille, with a shaking hand clicked the doorbell and the bells chimed. We stood there waiting for the horrible footsteps of my uncle to come. Then we heard them, he was always grumpy and I could tell these footsteps were his. If you lived with this guy long enough you will know these footsteps belong to him. He opens the door, and then I see my uncle..a tragic mess,reeks of smoke, and was holding a few papers in his hand.
Uncle Dumbus:oh it's YOU and-
He looks at me in a peculiar way, as if he doesn't remember me. But I'll always remember him,his footsteps, his voice, ugly sounding growly voice. I will always remember him because he traumatized my childhood. His legal name is Dumbledorr Columbus. But I just call him Uncle or Uncle Dumbus.
Uncle Dumbus:Stacie?
Sydie:SYDIE
Uncle Dumbus: oh Sydney it's YOU, well anyways come on in...and clean your shoes on the mat, you filthy animals
We walked in and everything stayed the same for the last few years nothing was different. The only thing I found odd was this young lady a few years older than me but younger than my mom was standing by the staircase smiling. Her smile looks forced and she looks like she doesn't want us to be here. But we had no choice to be here Uncle Dumbus is the only relative we have left.
Uncle Dumbus: Take their luggage upstairs to their room.
Sydie:Are we sharing a room? Isn't there an extra room for me or...your wife ?
Uncle Dumbus: SHE ISN'T MY WIFE!
Me and Aunt Lucille jumped back a little forgetting for a second about his anger issues. I guess I pushed to far, they did get divorced a few years before. I was just about to apologize.
Sydie: I'm-
Uncle Dumbus: Take their luggage upstairs Willow.
I'm surprised he normally just shouts his head off then leaves but he managed to calmly say something instead of exploding, I'm ImPrESSEd. Then this lady took our luggage hand in hand and smiled.
Willow: Right this way.
We followed her up the staircase and to the small room in the corner of the house. She set our luggage down and left, with no introductions or anything she just left. I stared at this room analyzing it, it's all brown wood, with 1 soft comfy bed and a window behind the bed. My eyes then saw Aunt Lucille, she was just staring at the air, probably wishing this was a dream but it isn't. I grabbed her hands and felt them softly.
Sydie: Aunt Lucille, it's okay we can get through this, it's only for a few months then we can move out, to a new house, new town, and a fresh start..just give me some time.
Aunt Lucille: Yes, I'm okay, let's just unpack and decide what to do next after.
I unpacked and helped Aunt Lucille unpack too. I was wondering how we can survive here and I'm guessing that "maid" is means more to my uncle than us. For sure is one thing, I'm not going to school here, not in WindyTown.
Uncle Dumbus: Sydney your going to start school in Eastward Academy.
Sydie: WhAT?!?!?!
We were all seated at the dining table eating dinner. It was delicious chicken wings, mashed potatoes, and steak. Rich people food is yummy! But I lost my appetite on what my uncle just said.
Aunt Lucille: Sydie let me explain, your uncle and I discussed this on the phone before we left the house.
I do recall Aunt Lucille getting a phone call before we left home. But she never told me who and what they said.
Aunt Lucille: You have to graduate and get a job that's what your mom always wanted.
Sydie: But I will just not here. In this GaRbägê Town!
Aunt Lucille:Sydie-
Sydie: I told you to please give me some time...can you just listen to me please.
I don't know why I was feeling emotional right now as I felt tears prick my eyes. It's just that nobody listens to me, or what I have to say, and now Aunt Lucille is doing the same to me right now and it hurts.
Uncle Dumbus: Sydney-
Sydie: IT'S SYDIE! AND SINCE WHEN DO YOU CARE ABOUT MY LIFE!
I felt my voice crack and I ran upstairs and slammed the door. I felt terrible, like how I felt on my parents funeral. I actually used to love this place but that all changed ever since my parents awful tragedy. I cried on the bed and looked out the window, I just wanna tell my parents: "Hold on, I still want you...Come back I still need you..."
