I'm sitting in the car as we drive out of the town I have known since I was three. The rumble of the car engine is the only noise besides the faint music coming from the stereo. My sister, Brittney is listing to her own music with her Beats earbuds. I never understood that brand. It's just some overpriced product that work just as well as other things. So what's the point of having expensive things? I don't know. Meanwhile I'm sitting in the back staring out the window saying goodbye to the town i loved to much. Correction- I still love it. I always will. My father,Daniel is trying to cheer me up by cracking jokes randomly. But it's not going to help. My mother died 4 months ago. We had her funeral in the town she grew up in. Witch was the town that I'm leaving now. I wanted her to be in the new town, but father had other plans. So here we are. A month after the funeral. Driving to a town 3 hours away. This is going to be one long ride.
