Do it.

That is the exact words my little sister said to me yesterday. Hi, I'm Tes. I'm 19 year old and I've got a lot of dreams. I just have some issues that held me back.

I've always wanted to travel the world. To see more then only my backyard which was the main road. I watched as the  people passed by. I watched the cars and heard their engines, being aware of my surroundings but still lost in thoughts. All those people that I saw, they always seemed like they knew what they were doing. It seemed like a strange world to me. Something I wasn't used to.

My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. I stood up from the comfortable chair which I had been sitting on for a while now and opened the door. My boyfriend stood infront of me. He smiled and kissed me on the forehead before coming inside. I love his smile alot, it makes me feel happy. As soon as he came in, he started talking about his day, about his weekend, about every little detail flying from topic to topic. I immediately felt overwhelmed. I closed the door behind him and forced a smile upon my face.

I loved the guy, but he was the opposite of me. I waited until he was done with his stories. He looked at me as I hasn't said I word yet since he came in. I sighed before finally speaking. "Dylan? We need to talk." I said. He looked up at me slightly confused as I started to explain. "I'm sorry to do this to you, I know you have been going through alot lately.. But I just can't keep this up. I've been forgetting to think about myself for way to long now." I looked down to the floor. Of course I didn't like hurting him in any way, shape or form but I couldn't keep this up.
I had to move on.
