Anxious. I was always anxious. I had anxiety so it made sense but right now for some reason it was causing me some sort of panic.
I was moving to a fucking zoo. At least I know it will be less boring then my current life.
I had decided once I went back to my room, after hearing the news, that I would start packing because I have a lot of stuff. As I was packing I heard a knock on my door
"Hey honey" I heard my dads voice.
"Hey dad" I said in a monotone voice.
"Honey I'm really sorry for not talking to you and Dylan before buying this new house. I just want our family to have a fresh start. I think we will do well here."
"Dad I'm not mad at you for buying a zoo. I love animals. I'm just confused because I don't know how we are going to care for a zoo by ourselves. What do you know about being a zoo keeper, manager, person who runs a zoo. I mean don't you have to like have a license?"
"You know honey I'm not sure either. I just saw the animals and the way Rosie played with the peacocks and I knew I had to buy it. I am pretty sure there are people that work there. If not we will hire some. As for the license, I'm not sure I think I have to get one." He said rubbing his chin
"Look dad you know that I hate the people at school. I have like no friends which I'm fine with and I am a good student. And I am almost done with high school. I'm not mad we are going to live at a zoo. Just a little concerned. Fresh start though. I'm excited dad. Ok?"
"Ok honey. I love you!" He said sincerely
"I love you too dad." I replied
He walked out of the room and closed the door before walking back in and saying
"By the way, I fixed your door sign." Then he walked out before I could thank him.
Back to my thoughts. All alone. With my thoughts. My dark dark thoughts.
I decided it was time to hit the hay. I got under my covers and layed there with my eyes open thinking about all the things that could happen in the next few weeks.
*A COUPLE DAYS LATER*
The school year had ended and we were going to be moving into the new house/zoo tommorow. I was actually way more excited than I thought I would be. I was still really nervous because it was all new to me but I was just hoping for the best.
Earlier today we had loaded everything into the moving trucks so that we could get going in the morning.
It was late and I was up watching lord of the rings for the 1000th time. God I love those movies (A/N:Same Val same). It was around 12:00 pm when I finally went to bed. It took awhile for me to stop watching LOTR but once I had, I fell asleep instantly.
I woke up to a farmilliar banging on my door.
"WAKE UP WE GOTTA GO!" Dylan yelled.
"Yeah yeah okay I'm coming" I said groggily, as I had just woken up.
I got my backpack with all my little things that I hadn't put in the truck and said a final goodbye to my room that looked nothing like it had before, and left the comfort of my childhood home.
Once I was outside I said goodbye to the house I had grown up in and set off to the car.
The journey to the new house was pretty quiet. I think we were all pretty nervous.
Once we arrived we all went into the house to start unpacking. I put out the necessities and then decided to look around.
Then it really dawned on me...
We bought a zoo
