Mrs. Hemmings (POV)
I got home from teaching early and found a package and letter on the porch addressed to the whole family and was not really sure weather I should open it now or wait for everyone to come home. However my curiosity got the best of me and I ended up opening the letter to see it was from Lilly. Just like she said she would send us something. I started reading to see what she needed to tell us before she got home because that was the whole reason I came home early. To get the house ready for my daughter as well as get ready to go to the airport to pick her up with the rest of the family.
Dear mom and dad,
I know you are probably wondering why I am writing to you before I come

I'm sorry but I have to do this for myself for once in my life I'm looking out for
myself. So if you come looking for me it won't be easy to do. By the time you
get this letter I will no longer be Lilly Hemmings but I will be the new me.
I wrote this letter because I want you and dad to let me go. I know that is a lot
to ask for being the youngest in the family and the only girl but I just want to
really be happy and not fake my happiness like how I was at home. I'm not like
Luke and that's the reason I left because I can't stand to be compared to
someone. I want to be my own person, feel like I belong, and have my dream of
