After a few months of settling in i get ready for my first day of 5th grade, now in a new school and nobody that i know. My mom drops me off and i immediately become quiet, i get to my first and class and everyone is immediately staring at me. something i don't enjoy even to this day. Over the course of the day i make a couple friends, my most prominent one being a friend called "Mensit" he and i would become close friends over the course of a couple months.
Now it's almost half way through the school year and i'm fairly familiar with this new life, even though i've already embarrassed myself a couple times because I'm still not very familiar with how to act around Americans. I hear whispers about how we're getting a new kid in class, little did I know this kid was going to complete my friend group for the next 2 years, his name was "Samir". Over the rest of the year, me, Mensit and Samir all became very close and we became a trio.
The next school year starts and i'm lucky enough to have multiple classes with Samir and Mensit so the trio continues. Over the year Mensit starts to distance himself so our trio turns into a duo but we're all still friends. I start to hear about a girl that is into Samir, her name was Kryssalynn and over a couple weeks i see the two of them become close to the point where they almost start dating until I found out that Samir doesn't actually like her and me and him get into a small argument over how I feel like it's not okay to lead her on and tell her that he has feelings when he doesn't. For a few days we stop talking and stop being friends until we talk and just laugh about the situation and become close friends again. Kryssalynn and Samir aren't really friends anymore but i wnd up getting close to her and over a couple weeks I find myself developing feelings for her. I never do anything about those feelings but i try to push them away.
Now it's middle school and not much has changed other than just being in a new building. Well that was until one thing happened... My grandmother who we were living with sense we moved to Ohio kicks us out and we're forced to move to Miamisburg with my mom's boyfriend. I still go to my middle school but eventually i'm forced to leave. One of my most difficult challenges. It felt like it was just Puerto Rico all over again. Moving to a new place with new people and loosing all of my friends. I let my friends know that i'm leaving as i have to get some papers signed by my teachers and they all hug me goodbye and i came back to one of my classes to give Kryssalynn a note and as i hand it to her i notice that she's crying. It was the first time i've seen her cry and i felt my heart brake because we became very close i felt bad for having to leave. I say goodbye to everyone except one person, Samir. I couldn't find him and I had to leave. He never got to know why i disappeared and now I was all alone, leaving my friends and leaving a place i considered home for a new place. A decision that would change the coarse of my life forever...
