"Wow it's so beautiful" I chirp as I walk in the large elegant house.

" I know Lauren , that's why I decided to live here instead of the other one your dad decided for us to stay in" my mother states.

My mom and dad were divorced when I was turning twelve. My dad wanted to rent a place for me and my mother to stay in since my childhood house got ruin by a nasty storm. My mother had decide against living where my dad suggested ,so she had saved plenty of money to come and live in a house in Miami,Florida.

The temperature is much better here than in California.It just feels so relaxing not to hot or to cold in the spring times although I miss my old house back in California.

"Sweetie can you stop daydreaming in lala land and help me put everything in order"I jump as my mom demands me to help her.

I hurry and go to the moving truck to help my mother.After three forths of the things are put in place I sit in the couch and rest for at least 15 minutes. I squint my eye open when I feel my mother approaching the couch with a photo in her hand and tears on her face.I sit up and ask my mother " What's wrong?".She breathes in "Its an old picture when you where a baby and when me and you're father we're together"she says.

At the sight I see the picture,tears start rolling down my face. I miss those old days when we use to be happy. I embrace my mother

"Don't worry leave the past alone and let's move forward"I tell her. I rapidly change the subject

"How far is the high school that I am going to?"I ask her.

"Umm don't worry it's only about 15minutes away from here",she tells me with a voice full of concern," oh yes that's great so I don't have to be waking up that early" I get thrilled with the idea of finally having beauty sleep.I can't wait to start 12 grade then next year I head off to college. Although my mother will be crying a lot when that time comes by. Then I will have a career that I will be happy with then a house ,a car, a family and a lot more. At the thought of that gives me chills. My mother gets up from the couch and asks me "Do you want some tea?" "please".I reply back.When my mom comes back she hands me my tea."Be careful Lauren I don't want you to get burn" she tells me. I drink all my tea and look at the brand new clock that we got from target for our new house. I was shocked when I read 10:18 on the clock time goes way to fast. I go to my plain room and try to pack what I will need for tomorrow. I grab a blanket from a packing box and lay on the really comfortable bed and cover myself with my blanket. I think for a while of what will it be tomorrow. As my eyelids get heavy I close them and drift of to sleep.
