My mom and my dad separated when I was fourteen years old. I was studying at Haven Schhol but since my mom's job at the time wasnt so great she agreed with my dad that I should live with him. I spent the last three years with him. I was on the chubby side and my dad decided to enroll me in a fitness center near his work so I can watch my weight.
Its been great but I really miss my mom. Then two months ago she called me and told me that she will get me back. Her current job is great as a personal shopper and she just got promoted. Dad agreed and said she knows mom will take better care of me. Its not that he isnt a good father but he is almost always at work. Most of the time, I spend my day with Hongki.
" Hey Lianee, your dad told me you'd be moving back to your moms?" He said to me last week and I nod my head. I was a bit sad. Because I'd be in a new environment that Im not familiar with. I've been there in my freshman year but its only headache that I remember from that school. " Dont look like that." He said pinching my cheeks. " Its going to be great."
" How do you know?" I ask him and he smiled.
" You'll be with your mom." He said and I nod again. Thats the only good side with this transfer.
" Besides you have spent your freshman year there."
I scowled at him. I really dont remember anything good about my freshman year. The kids treated me bad because of my weight. There are times when I went home with scrape on my knee and no one ever bothered to help me. Except Hongki. He's been my saviour at school. When my parents separated he transferred with me to my dads place and help me with my fitness program.
At the airport.
" Lianee." My mom embraced me and kissed both my cheeks. " I missed you so much!"
" Mom!" I squeeled. I hugged her tight. I really missed her.
" Hey I will be on an out of town conference then I will go directly to my week long vacation. Is it ok if I leave you by yourself at home honey?" She asked her eyebrows scrunching up. Thats how she is when she isnt sure if I will agree or not.
" Im gonna be ok mom." I told her with a smile. " Im nearly eighteen."
" Well , you can allow your boyfriend to visit you but not to sleep over. " She said in mock seriousness. I laughed.
"Mom! He would never sleep over. " I told her and she smile. Her face showing approval.
" I know he's going to be a great influence on you. I really trust him you know." She added with a wink. " By the way I have enrolled you at Haven High. Everyone knows you're coming back this semester."
I plastered a smile on my face. Whew! If only mom knew how the kids treated me before. I didnt tell her and my dad only learned about it when he saw me crying. Its ok though. Ive grown up and kept my ideal weight. I guess I can just finish this last year and move on to college. Haven high can just be a part of history after this year.
All I have to do is get through Monday and everything will be fine.
