I've never dreaded summer. In fact, it's one of my favorite seasons, but this year is different. Things change, people change, and parents change..... Which is exactly why I'm not looking forward to this summer.
This will be the first summer I've spent without both of my parents together. The simple go-to sentence they tell me is "It's not your fault. It's just people grow apart" or "You have nothing to do with why the relationship between us broke" They tell me this constantly.
I think they try to tell me this so I don't feel as if what's happened is my fault, but it's too late for that. My mind races a thousand miles per hour saying how I should've done a better job at being a better daughter for their relationship, or that if I had begged a little harder they would try to fix everything. The thoughts are quiet most days, but sometimes they rush in like a storm.
I quickly remind myself to breathe, and when I do the storm all in my mind starts to calm down.
