I wake up with my head on my desk. I must have passed out last night spending another night looking at apartments. Life was really at a low the past month. after my old roommate had kicked me out of her apartment to move in with her new boyfriend. So I was back with my shitty parents. The parents who judge my every move, monitoring what I eat, where I live, who I like, and especially my dreams of becoming a twitch streamer and a singer. They have always been like that though. But my dad always took things way too far. I got out of my chair stretching and shut down my computer.
I immediately went to get ready for the morning. First I took a shower, than dried my hair, did makeup and hair, and finally I changed into this:
It was simple, but perfect because it had just turned fall, Fall has always been my favorite season.
I make my way downstairs and decide to go to the coffee shop. The one I have been going to sense I was a teen. I got into my car and drove into town. I cant remember a time where I didn't live in Vermont, I have never really traveled to much, always just been here. When I was very small maybe till the age of 5 we lived in Texas. But we never had fit in so we came here.
"Good morning y/n! Nice to see you, what could I Get you for today." Says the women at the coffee shop. Her name is Mary, she owns the place. Me and Mary have always got along despite our age difference. She was 50 and I way 24. But she has always been there when I needed to talk.
"Ill have hot green tea and an egg bagel please." I say taking a seat.
"Coming right up! Hows everything going trying to find an apartment y/n?"
"Pretty bad actually. I cant figure out what I even want other than the fact I just don't wanna live with my parents anymore." I respond.
"You know, when I had first moved here I was scared for change." She says as she starts to make my order. "But you know, maybe some change would be good for you. even if its out of the Country."
I thought for a minute about it. And maybe she was right. Mary had moved to America at my age from London. And if she liked the change, maybe I would.
She sets the tea on the table. "You know, when you go home today look into Brighton. Its a great place and I could see you making a good life there."
When I finished my good I payed for everything and got into my car to go back home and look into it. Brighton.
I got into my house and rushed upstairs to avoid my parents. I decide to call my brother, Donovan, so I had company while I looked into Brighton.
"Hey y/n! Whats up?" I hear Donovan's voice say over the phone. "Hey don, so I talked to Mary today and she suggested I look for apartments in the UK." I say. "Oh THATS cool!" He says. "Yeah, i don't know I think I might just need change. even if its just for a year or so." I say looking for places in Brighton. "Yeah I would too if I was with our parents." When was living with his girlfriend at the moment, he was 20 so he way 4 years younger.
I end the call after 2 hours and continue to look into Brighton, it seems like it has a lot I would like, and I've come to terms with the fact that I cant handle living here anymore. I need to get the fuck away from here. Even if it means making a whole new life, so be it.
