Grace: why do we have to move

Aunt Traci: i told you a million time Grace its for your own good

Grace: But you already know Im not going to make any friends

Aunt traci: How do you know if we haven't even arrived yet

Grace: Because I didn't have any while we were in New York

Uncle John: Grace knock off!!!

Grace: Not my fault that we had to move

Uncle John: Grace I said knock it off

Grace: Whatever (puts in my headphones 🎧 and plays my favorite band motionless in white)


Oh hey there I didn't see you there. Let me introduce myself my name is Grace Alexandria quinn no im not related to Kellin quinn and I also go by Grave(don't ask). Im 19 yrs old i like to draw, skateboard,listen to music and i love to sing.As you can some what tell I'm moving to a new state with my aunt and uncle. My parent died a few months ago from a drunk driver and I saw them die from the backseat of the car and I don't even know how I even survived. So my aunt decided it was best if we left new York and move to California. So here I am sitting in an airplane and starting what my aunt calls "a new life". A new life my ass my life is already crappy enough.

After a very long flight from New York to California we finally landed in Los Angeles airport we waited for our taxi to take us to our new house and when the taxi finally showed up I got uncomfortable because I have a feeling the we were going to crash at some point.

Aunt traci: Grace you ok

Grace:(shaking) yea why

Aunt traci: Cause your shaking like a leaf

Grace: Oh I'm fine I'm just not use to flying that's all

Aunt traci: You sure?

Grace: Yea I'm sure

Aunt traci: Ok let me know if you need to stretch your legs or something

Grace: Ok

After I said ok to my aunt I though about if I should tell my aunt that I get claustrophobic when I'm inside cars but at the same time I don't want to get sent to a therapist and talk about certain stuff that I don't want to relive. After about 5 minutes of debating whether or not if I should tell her or not i didn't even notice my aunt was calling me.

Aunt traci: GRACE!!!

Grace: Huh?

Aunt traci: We're here

Grace: Oh........ok

Aunt Traci: Grace are you sure you're alright

Grace: Yea I'm sure

Aunt Traci: Ok if you say you're ok the help me and your uncle get the stuff inside

Grace : Ok (gets out of the taxi)


-3hours later-

Aunt Traci: WE ARE OFFICIALLY MOVED IN!!!!!!!!!!!

Grace: Hurray😒

Aunt Traci:(looks at me) Grace I don't think your alright

Grace: Oh gee now you notice I'm not ok

Uncle John: Don't give the tone young lady

Grace: Who fucking cares

Uncle John: I'd watch that mouth of your if I was you

Grace: Or what you you'll punish me for not giving a fuck(gets up and heads to the front door)

Uncle John: And where do you think your going

Grace: Out

before my uncle got a chance to utter another word the door closes behind me and I started to walk to a park which I half remembered seeing while I was riding the taxi. After five minutes of walk I couldn't find the park and right as I was turning around I accidentally bumped in to someone causing me to fall on my butt.

Grace: Hey watch where your going!!!!!

stranger: (shyly)Oh I'm sorry I didn't see you

Grace: How can you not see me I was right in front of you

Stranger: But I was also looking at my phone

Grace: Whatever

Stranger: You know you don't have to be a grouch

Grace: God you sound like my aunt and uncle but alot nicer

Stranger: Umm..........thanks I guess

Grace: So are you just gonna stand there and looking pretty or are you gonna help me up

Stranger: Oh sorry (helps me up)
