The refreshing breeze of a serene April morning made me realise the comfort I have in my den. Never in my life would I do this but to not hurt my dad I am moving away from the place where I had spent my loneliness for the past 17 years. Either I must embrace these changes and move on or be an obstinate brat by saying no to college.
Ahh! Wait a minute, where are my manners? Let me introduce myself. I am Vessa Jo Anderson. Oh, don't get excited by my surname. Not anyone important, just a go-with-the-flow girl. 'Nerd, introvert, bookworm, the facsimile of Wednesday Addams.' Likewise, I had more "pet" names than high school grades but was not bullied, which would not have worried me. Let's not talk about it; everyone has their high school drama.
My family wanted me to be admitted to a famous college where they could proudly declare my daughter would be an engineer or a doctor; rather, I picked literature to become an author. So, my father handed me an ultimatum: it was either his choice or mine, and he gave me five days. On the fifth day after a lot of persuasion and blackmail, I chose his choice, thus the prancing in front of neighbours and relatives that she won't let us down drama.
"Vessa, Honey?" mom called. As I walked downstairs, I wished the earth to swallow me, for there sat the gang of gossip mongers and show-offs. "Ha! Here comes the star," one of the snobs said, as the others turned their heads towards me. What happened for the next hour was pure torture, with fake praise and snobbish laughter.
Even though I am my parents' only child, they are so preoccupied with their business and parties that they have overlooked my joy and sadness. For them, I am just the dew drops in their expansive lush green meadow, that vanishes in the sun's warmth.
