My dream was going perfect. Harry and I were together, having fun like always. Chasing each other in the yard. The last I saw of him was him giving me a hug until, *Bing* “Your journey to the U.S. has been completed. Please wait for the pilot to turn off the fasten seat belt sign to exit the plane. Have fun in Saint Louis, Missouri,” the annoying perky flight attendant announced. Then I realized… this is reality.
We left the plane and got our luggage. There was a man in a black suit and hat holding a sign that said ‘Wence’. My mom walked over to him and began to tell him that we are the Wence’s. He took our bags and led us to a black SUV. We hopped in it and he drove us to a nice, semi-large house. My mom and dad’s car were already in the driveway. I guess this is where I’ll be living from now on.
My mom and dad took the bags out and the driver slowly backed out of the long, curvy driveway. It was huge! We walked through the front door and to my surprise, it was already decorated.
“Mom, were did all of this furniture come from? It’s not even ours!” Ashton asked looking very confused. “Well, we sold our furniture and bought the old owners so we didn’t have to unpack and redecorate. And plus school is starting soon here and we didn’t want to have loads of big boxes in the way,” my mom told us while bringing in some small boxes. I was ok with the new furniture. I kind of liked it.
We got a tour from my dad and we went to our rooms. Mine was big and colorful. The walls were…Tiffany Blue! My favorite! It was bright and cheery! Sadly I had to share with Ashley. Hope she isn’t messy! We got our small boxes and unpacked. The house looked complete by the end of the day.
We were all jet legged so we went to bed early.
****NEXT DAY****
We got up around… NOON?!?! Wow! Time change is not fun. Ashley and me rolled out of bed and slowly walked like zombies down the stairs. Following the grilled cheese and tomato soup smell.
“Morning my lovely children! Or should I say ‘afternoon’! How was sleeping?” My dad asked with a cheeky grin on his face. “Fine,” we all mumbled. “Great!” my mom shouted. “We are going back-to-school shopping today! New clothes, shoes, books, binders, folders, etcetera”
The one thing my mom loved. Shopping. For everything. And I mean E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G. It was quit scary.
“Yay…” Ashley, Ashton, and I moaned together since we are the ones going to school. I was going into second grade while Ashley and Ashton are going to be seniors. I felt sad that they had to move right before graduation. Must be tough.
“Ok then. Eat up and get ready! We’re leaving at 3,” my mom announced while flipping a grilled cheese.
We finished eating and got ready for shopping. So fun… yay.
We left the house and got binders, pencils, glue, paper, notebooks, literally anything school related you could think of.
****THREE HOURS LATER****
We came back and unloaded the packed car. It was probably the worst shopping experience I have ever had. Ashley loves shopping and even she looked miserable. It was an awful day.
We ate dinner and my dad, Max, and Alex talked about going to the arch and Forest Park. They seemed to have a fun filled day. Hopefully I would go to those places soon!
We finished eating and then went to bed. My first day in Saint Louis and it was horrible. Hopefully everyday wouldn’t be like this. I had managed not to think about Harry the whole day until I had time to lie down and think. That’s when all the memories flooded back. Tears slowly descended down my cheeks. I missed him so much. I can’t believe he’s gone. I cried myself to sleep. Of course silently because I didn’t want to wake Ashley up from her ‘beauty sleep’.
****5 MONTHS LATER****
A lot has happened in a month. I turned 8, made new friends at school, but not as close to me as Harry whom I haven’t talked to in a while. It used to be that I would call him once a week but that changed once school started. Well on the other hand, Zach, my brother who’s 4 years younger than me, is now able to talk full sentences. He’s just so cute! And guess what… my mom had ANOTHER baby! She’s crazy! Eight kids?! How does she do it? This time it’s a girl. Her name is Khloe. She’s 8 years younger than me but she is still adorable! What can I say, I melt for babies!
This year has been going by great! Until we got the call…
