I was sitting in one of the booths waiting for my boyfriend Chuck to come and pick me up from work. I hated everything about life at this point. My dad and mom wanted me to work in the family restaurant forever, i hated working here so much. My boyfriend of two years I'm almost positive has been cheating on me, i hate him. and to top it all off I'm stuck here with them! "You ready to go?" I looked up to see Chuck looking down at me. "Whatever." I got up and we walked to his car. "Whats been up with you lately you seem on edge?" I started rubbing my forehead "Nothing babe!" I looked up and flashed him a fake smile and we drove to my house.
Me and Chuck walked in the door and i went to make tea in the kitchen. "Hey your parents aren't home wanna fool around?" I shot him a smile. "No thanks." I walked into the living room and sat down waiting for my tea kettle to whistle. "Lanny whats wrong?" He started kissing my neck and i pushed him off. "I don't know other than i hate everything here including you!" He gave me a confused look. "Chuck i know you have been sleeping around." He had the look of gilt on his face. "Look it was only a fe-" i cut him off. "Chuck i want to see other people, even though you already have." He tried grabbing my hand but i pulled it away. "Chuck I'm serious you need to leave." He stood up and looked down at me. "Do you really think someone is going stay with you as long as i have? Trust me no guy is going to put up with you as long as i have." He then grabbed his coat and left slamming the door.
I looked outside and watched him get in the car and pull away. Honestly i felt a weight being lifted off my shoulders. I saw the sun was starting to set so i ran and got my camera. I walked out and let the warm summer air warm my skin and started snapping shots, it was beautiful. I walked in to hear the kettle whiling and pored myself a cup of tea. I sat on the couch and smiled whilst sipping tea and reading some magazine on the coffee table.
I guess i fell asleep because i woke up to the door bell ringing. i got up and it was the mail man. "Sorry running late today." Me being me and not hearing what he said i replied "You too." and shut the door. I shuffled though the mail and saw a letter from NYU. I took a deep breath and slowly opened it. NYU was my dream school i loved any sort of artsy thing so this was my kinda school. I started reading and it said i didn't get in,I wanted to cry but I'm stronger than that. I threw the letter in the trash and went into and laid in the darkness of my room till i fell asleep.
