I wake up from my nap that lasted for about an hour.

"Mom!" I shout out.

No responses. Perfect I can leave without any disturbances. I say to myself.

I grab my backpack and head downstairs. As I'm about to walk out I see something on the stove. It's the dinner my mom left me and it had a note on top of it.

I read the note, "I'm going to be out late tonight, so I made your favourite food. Love Mom."

Inside the pot was fettuccine alfredo with cut up chicken. It was delicious and I ate half and left the rest for my mom. I walk to the sidewalk, turn, and look at my house. I got memories from when I was little.

I woke in a racecar bed and footie pajamas after changing I run into my parents bedroom and jump on them.

"Wake up, you guys!" I shout to them.

"I'm up," my dad said groggy," let me get dressed, then we can go."

It was the first day my dad had off in months and he promised he would spend the day with me. He took me to an amusement park and he helped me conquer a fear. The end of the day was great because we actually got to sit at the table as family.

"Oh dad," I say quietly, "you have nursed so much."

I turn and walk down the street crying because I'll never see my family again.
