New Schools Change People

Chapter One

I couldn't do it, why did it have to be her? She was just going to work to pick up some paperwork she had to do. It's not like she did anything wrong. She was a perfect mother to me, she was caring, loving, my biggest fan of my skateboarding, she liked the same bands of me and would jam with me in the car, blasting out music. See, no harm done there. Just why?

I was currently in my room just listening to Starset on Pandora, looking up at my tan ceiling with no emotion. My wrist burning from my harsh cutting of my razor I used to cut my wrist just 30 minutes ago. I was so close to just ending my life right there, but I knew my dad couldn't loose another loved one in less than one week. He was finishing his last day of work here in our boring little town in Indiana, then we were are going to pack up all our things and move down to Georgia for a fresh start. We both knew we needed one so moving was the best idea from the rough week.

Beep!, I heard my dad's car go. Well, it looks like we'll start packing now since it was only 5:38 p.m.

"November? Hey kiddo, we should start packing and get a head start because we kinda," he stops to laugh "got a lot of thing to pack." He looks at me with a kind smile and just nod my head in a yes gesture.

He leaves my room and I go to my struck for some empty brown boxes we have laying around. Grabbing around 10, I head back to my room and head towards my closet, packing my about 30 band shirts and about 10 formal shirts in 3 boxes. Grabbing 2 more boxes, I head towards my dresser and load all my skinny jeans, which is about 10, into the box. Grabbing 2 more, I load all my pajamas, along with my bras and underwear. And finally using just one box I put my 4 pairs of shoes into that.

After loading all my clothes into boxes, I see its 8:39 and just shrug and head into my twin size bed. Not caring I'm still in today's clothes, just wanting some sleep. After about 10 minutes of waiting I finally fall into a dreamless sleep...
