When we got to my drive way I was about to get out before I looked up at my house. My new house that my parents lived all but one week in. That thought made me realize my parents were actually gone. I started crying again. "I can get your things for you." Jeydon offered. I shook my head no an wiped away my tears. "I can do it I just need a minute. I said as Jeydon nodded.

I stared up at the 4 bedroom house. The pain was indescribable. I don't know how I'm going to continue on without my mom and dad. They will never see me graduate. My mom will never cry at my leaving for college. My dad will never approve my boyfriend to ask me to marry him. My dad will never walk me down the isle and give me away. I couldn't do this what was I thinking I can't continue on. There is no way I can live without my parents.

I hadn't realized I started crying again. "I'm such a mess Jeydon. You should just take me back to the hospital and forget you ever met me." I said wiping my tears away again. "Do you need me Addi?" Jeydon asked looking at me like a guy on a mission. "Jeydon that's not a fair question." I was interrupted by him "Do you need me?" He asked again. I nodded crying again for the third time. "Good because I'm staying, now go get your things." Jeydon said making me smile. I opened the car door.

A boy wasn't going to take the pain away, but a boy was going to help me forget the pain. This boy. This amazing boy who even though I probably look like a total crack head right now cared enough to stay.

I stepped out and walked up to my door. I quickly rushed passed the living room and all the family photos and gathered some things from my room in a bag as quick as I could. I grabbed some clothes and threw them in the bag and threw on a hoodie and some shorts. I quickly brushed my teeth in the bathroom and then changed my shoes.

I ran back down trying to be quick but couldn't help it. I saw a picture of my parents and my brother and I on our first time to an amusement park that took place 11 years ago. I was six and Malekei was 7. That was an amazing day even though Malekei and I fought over who got mom because dad was so scared when he went on roller coasters. I smiled at that memory, until I remembered we would never make another memory as a family again and started balling.

Jeydon must have been close to the house and heard me cause he rushed in. "I'm ok sorry I'm taking so long." I said wiping my tears. "I'm here. It's ok that you're not ok." Jeydon said grabbing my bag and helping me up I hadn't realized I fell to the floor when I thought of that memory. "I just need a minute do you mind?" I asked Jeydon as he shook his head no and took my bag out to the car. He got in the car so he wouldn't hear me this time. I looked at all the photos as spinning in a slow circle to see them all.

"Why?" I asked outloud to my parents. "Why did you leave me?" I asked sobbing. "I have been a good daughter I got straight A's, I never cheated, never lied, so why?" I said a little louder. "I'm not ready you let you go mommy and daddy." I said softer as I dropped to my knees. "I need you." I whined. "I need you and you left me!" I yelled throwing a vase next to the table I was leaning against when I fell at the wall. it shattered and a piece cut my hand slightly. But you know glass always has to be dramatic and make a big deal out of nothing so blood ran down my wrist.

"Whatever I did to make you leave I'm sorry." I said getting up. "But I tried my hardest to make you proud. I never meant to disappoint you mommy." I said walking out the front door.

I walked back to the car and got in. "Let's go back to my brother now." I told Jeydon as he nodded and drove back towards the hospital. "Oh my god Addi, what happened to your hand?" He asked stopping the car completely. "I dropped a vase and trying to pick up the glass I cut my hand it's nothing keep driving." I said shrugging and turned my hand over. "It's not nothing and you didn't cut the back of your hand by picking up glass. When we get to the hospital were getting it looked at." he said concerned. I nodded and said "Whatever just hurry back to my brother please." I said looking out the window. He continue driving to the hopspital.
