It's incredible how life can change so rapidly. You live thinking everything's going to be alright and in matter of seconds life turns upside down. My name is Angella Anderson. I recently moved to Chapel Hill, North Carolina with my mother. It's been a year since my mom divorced my dad. It's really hard when your mom was crazy in love with "The man of her life" and he ends up breaking her heart like that.
My mom met him in a club in Memphis, Tennessee, she went with her friends to a club for a girls night out (Meeting hot guys night out). And standing there in the bar a tall black-haired guy offered her drink. That's how mom and dad started. She was a nurse in the town hospital at Memphis, same as my dad. But they never met.
One day after the club night, my mom was called to work in an emergency surgery, because they needed the best nurse to assist the best surgeon in town. My mom rushed to the room, and saw my dad dressed as a doctor.Yes, he was the surgeon. They gazed at each other for a couple of seconds as they recognized each other.
"You're that girl from club, right?" my dad asked my mom.
"Yes.... I am... I guess..."
"You have to go out with me tonight."
"I'm sorry, doctor....?"
"Anderson. Bryan Anderson" My dad informed her, shaking her hand.
"Doctor Anderson...."
"And you are ?" he asked her for her name.
" Christa McDannel..."
"Doctor, please, hurry up!" someone yelled interrupting their conversation.
My mom hurried to the patient and my dad kept looking at her.
"Are you coming doctor?" My mom asked.
"Yes... I'm sorry" My dad began the surgery; everything was going fine... He had to make one final cut to finish the surgery. Everyone watched in amazement how good he was. There were only a couple of minutes left for the patient to wake up. When my dad was about to make the last cut, he suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong Doctor Anderson?" My mom asked.
"You have to say yes" he responded
"Excuse me?" My mom asked surprised
"You have to say yes for tonight, or I won't make the cut."
"Tonight? What's happening tonight?"
"You're going on a date with me.."
"Are you insane?"
"There's only 10 minutes left and I still have to sew the patient"
"Oh, wow. This is unbelievable" my mom argued
"Clock's ticking..." my dad reminded her.
"Okay, fine.... I'll go out with you" My mom complained. My dad made the cut, and then sew the patient. He was about to leave and walked towards my mom, who was cleaning everything.
"Where should I pick you up?"
My mom turned to face him.
"Don't worry, tell me where to go and I'll get there"
"Ok, We'll go to Ilpostino, that's an Italian restaurant in"
"I know where it is, I'll be there at seven" She snaped uniterested.
"I'll be waiting for you"
It will be an statement to say that they fell insanely in love with each other, my mom resisted at first , but ended up giving in to the feeling inside her, with every look upon my dad's eyes.
A year passed and they got married, and year later I came to the world. Just when I was born my dad got a job offer in California.... He was a really famous surgeon. We moved there, everything was perfect, maybe too perfect to be true. My dad worked all of the time, sometimes he didn't even return to the house for days. When my mom asked him, he always said it was job problems. But it didn't take so long for my mom to notice. It wasn't his work at all.
They began to separate from each other. Like a wall made of lies, infidelity, unhappiness, adultery and pain grew between them.My mom cried every single night because my dad was always gone. My mom loved him so much, that she hoped everyday that he would change; she hoped that he would turn to the real person she once fell in love with. But the problem was that my dad became someone really different. The person she fell in love with was long gone.
16 years passed. My mom was tired of my father's infidelity and decided to put an end to it, to put an end to being the victim. She gave him the divorce papers. He signed them with a grin on his face. Like he saw the heavens opened, because my mom didn't want any money from him, she just wanted to leave and forget everything that reminded her of him, everything, but me. She just demanded to take me with her.
We left to Memphis, to my grandparent's house. We stayed there all summer long. But my mom got even more depressed. Just to go buy some milk she had to drive through the hospital she met my dad, the beautiful chapel they got married in, their first house where I was conceived, Ilpostino and the club.
I just couldn't see her like that anymore. My mother was dying of sadness and I wasn't doing anything to help her. So I grabbed my laptop, and went to my uncle's house to get some Wi-Fi, because living with my grandparents was like living under a cave. And started to look for nursing jobs, schools and cheap houses. And one little house in this really beautiful town, Chapell Hill. Catched my eye. And then it hit me. North Carolina. Everything was perfect. I could even go to college there. I loved the Tarheels. So I asked my mom and she loved it, the house, the town, the school, everything.
So here I am... getting ready for school. My mom is happier now, thank God. She started to work the next day we moved in. It's been one month since we moved and everything is going great, at least for now.
