As I put my bags Into the car I look over at my mom. She looks so happy, I have to do this for her I thought. "Everyone load up!" My step dad said. When I got into the car I pop in my earphones and I turn my music up so loud so I can't hear my family. I look at my family my little brother with his toy dragon, my mom and my step dad holding hands, she is just looking at him. Is that what love looks like? I never saw my mom and my real dad do that..
I open my eyes. Was I sleeping? I look around and no one was in the car. But then I see we are at a gas station. I turn my music down and close my eyes again I tried to remember a time my mom and dad looked that happy together. There were none, none I could ever remember. They were always fighting and never getting along, maybe that's why they got a divorce and I have to go to his house every weekend. I'm about to be an adult anyways so I won't have to go there anymore. But my poor brother.. I know my mom will never get back together with my dad so then that means my brother will have to deal with this for along time. "Hey honey" my mom opened the door. "Glad your up, got you some snacks" "thanks" I told her. I looked down at my snack and I smiled, of course she got me my favorite snack. A bag of chex mix and a blue slushy. When my brother and step dad got into the car I asked are we almost there? "Um about 1 hour maybe" he said.
