Home is Where the Heart is

Lost

Sara hasn't always felt like she was lost. She was normally happy and didn't have a care in the world. Things were fine for her in her nineteen years of living. Well that was until her parents died in a car crash. Now it's just her in this big world all alone with no family to take her in. She doesn't know where to go or what to do with her life. She can't be stuck at her dead end job and her crappy apartment in the county side forever. Her dreams when she was younger was to go to London to live. Could she still do that? How would she pay for an apartment there? 

"I need to get out of here," Sara thought to herself as she walked home from the market where she worked, "I have money to get to London and spend a couple nights in a cheap hotel but I can't live in a hotel and I would need to get a job to pay for anything out there." She kicked the pavement as she continued to walk. She made it to the apartment once she made it inside she started packing things up. She only packed the important stuff which wasn't that much just her clothes, laptop, and camcorder. "This is it, I'm moving to London," She nearly whispered to herself. She called up her friend Brandon to tell him the news and to ask if he wanted to take the furniture in her apartment. 

"Hello," the sleepy voice of Brandon whispered 

"Hey, its me, I wanted to let you know I'm leaving for London in the morning and I was wondering if you wanted the furniture or anything else in my apartment," Sara said nervously. 

"Wait, what," Brandon yelled. 

"Look, I know this is sudden but I need to get out of the county. I was never a county girl to begin with and after my parents passing I need a change. I promise I will come back and visit its just right now i need to leave," Sara roared at Brandon. 

"Okay, okay, this is a huge shock for me right now but I will come over tomorrow with to get the stuff out of there, I still have the key you gave me. I'll tell the land lady that you had to leave because of job thing or something of the other so then things will be fine for the rent and stuff," Brandon said reluctantly. He knew Sara was stubborn and once she had her mind set on something she wasn't going to give up. 

"Okay, Thank you Brandon," Sara said. 

"No problem, anything for you," he said.

"Well I better go and finish getting things ready to go, I'll call you once I get to the city, I promise," Sara smiled. 

"Okay, goodbye Sara, and be safe," Brandon said. 

"Okay I will, goodbye Brandon," Sara said as a tear rolled down her cheek. 

"I can finally start the life I want and no one can stop, well maybe the police," Sara laughed to herself as she finished packing. She then went to lie down for a few hours before leaving bright and early tomorrow morning to the train station.
