Catch me, I'm Falling

CHAPTER 1: The News

"KEIKO! SACHI! COME HEREEE" My mom yells from down stairs.

"OK" Keiko and I answer back simultaneously, we look at each other and laugh, and head downstairs.

Before I go down stairs I stop and look at myself in the mirror, straight brown hair going down to my shoulder blades, freckles, and my hazel eyes. Everyone says I'm the pretty one in my family but I still think I'm ugly, I am the tallest girl in my family, I have always made myself be fit but lately I just feel fat and ugly, (I'll have to tell you why later) and I know I have admirers at my school, well soon to be old school since I will be graduating in 2 weeks. I went to a private school with about 100 students, maybe that sounds small but I always thought it was perfect.

I run down stairs and see my mom and my dad sitting on the couch, and Keiko standing in front of where they are sitting, probably thinking the same as I. Why are they just sitting there? the TV isn't even on, and I thought dad would be gone for work it's like 9AM!

"Girls you may want to take a seat." My mom says.

My mom is the type of person who repeats herself over and over and over sometimes without even realising it.
She is also been very strict with us, w'll compared to my friends.

Keiko and I sit on the tan 'love seat' across from my parents. A love seat is made for two people to sit on, normally a couple, that's where it got it's name. This is my sisters and I's favorite seat (when we are not fighting), because we can sit in it together and have just enough extra room so we are comfortable.

"Mom? What's going on?" Keiko say's confused.

then my dad speaks "Well I'm just going to tell you because their is no use in hiding anything"

My dad and I have had a terrible relationship for months now. One day Tamiko, my older sister, had a fight with my dad an I told them to stop yelling and my dad started screaming at me and about every little detail about how I was always disrespectful, well that literally erased everything had in terms of a relationship with him. Now I'm to afraid to talk to him let alone be in the same room, because I literally have gotten PTSD, and depression about how he scared me. Well I have had depression before that about how my family always fights and shit but that pushed me over the edge. I have other conditions like, social anxiety and concentration issues. But lets just say I am very messed up in the head.

My dad continues "Well I've been relocated to the Huston branch for work"

"What?!" Keiko and I say simultaneously again, but this time we aren't smiling.

"We have to move to Huston for Dad's job, we have no other options. I know you guys are shocked, but it's for the better." my mom says trying to down play the severity of the topic.

I stand up and say "Why? wait never mind it won't matter, but how are we going to leave DALLAS?!!!!"

"It will be a very confusing journey but-" My mom starts to say but I cut her off.

"DON'T ACT LIKE THIS IS OK! I HAVE GROWN UP HERE LIVED HERE MY WHOLE LIFE" I yell.

Well technically I have lived here nine years just enough to start in kindergarten and finish in eight grade.
To grow up with same people friends I have known for years, now I have to leave them behind!

"I understand your upset but you don't need to yell! Sometimes things happens and you have to go on with it. Look at the bright side, we all knew you didn't want to go to your sisters high school so here you go, you won't go to her school and she won't either"

It's true I hate absolutely despise her Highschool. It was a private Highschool made up of 13 kids, no sports, and my class would be only three boys. And my parents would force me to go there.

"But mom you can look at the bright side but you can't ignore the dark." I say to my mom.
I take a deep breath and breath. Then I run upstairs..

As I reach my room I hear my mom yell to me. "Don't tell anyone yet, I don't want everyone knowing right now."

I flop onto my bed and hug my stuffed bear that I've had for a very long time, and think 'what do you know about Huston?'

Well I have only been to Huston a couple times like for basketball and some school trips to our other related schools-
Wait.
No.
Way.
Ok. Calm down Sachi there is like a 3% chance you will ever meet him. Hayden. I met Hayden at a track meet for my school that was hosted in Huston, and it was literally love at first sight, but it didn't last, sadly. My friend ended up getting his phone number for me and he was the kindest person I had ever met. He said I was pretty and sweet, then one day he hurt my feelings saying he wouldn't date me because I lived 3hrs away in Dallas. But then about three days later he stopped talking to me. so one day I decided to say Hi to him and of course he ignored me, so I decided to guilt trip him/make him think he hurt my feelings (he did hurt my feelings but I try not to dwell on that). I blocked him off I cut everything off from him.

Well I am never going to see him so forget about that.
