The Inhuman Boy

Change

I was crying in the car as the thought of me leaving my home, my best friend an my school just to go half way across the country. 

We used to live at no’11 AppelBerrie Lane, London SEQ 30V, across from Akappel‘s house

“I miss her already, with all the laughter and games and the sleep- overs, birthday parties, Halloween, Christmas...” I thought sadly.  

“I feel like I am going to vomit on myself, on my ‘special’ suit. I don’t think it’s ‘special', I am just wearing a suit and tie and pants. I apparently have to look smart and home-trained, because I am going to visit my ‘strict’ grandparents and my long ago relatives” I thought dimly.

 I was really sad as I got in the car with Samantha and Ronald (my parents), When I came out of the car, I was so amazed and shocked of how sunny California looked in July.

The house was so devastatingly beautiful, so gorgeous. I felt like I shouldn’t go back to London, AppelBerrie Lane again. I felt this urge, like something telling to start something or someplace new, and maybe when I has the time, I could go see my best friend, Akappel.  

 The house that was going to be my new home was stunning. I went inside the new house, and I  couldn’t believe my eyes, I went upstairs; inside the rooms, the toilettes were the colour of the sea, and the living rooms were massive and colourful.

‘Dad where’s my room?’ I Shouted  from upstairs, trying to pick which room I would have.  

“By the way your grandparents called to say that they’re picking us up and that your relatives are already waiting. Just put your stuff down and bring your phone” Shouted Ronald from the phone with Grandma Kristen and Grandpa Jeremy.   

 Grandma Kristen and Grandpa Jeremy were already outside beeping their black BMW. I felt a bit scared and afraid to go in the car with my grandparents, but I also felt anxious to meet them and my American relatives I have never met. However, I had this will power to go in the car, instead I walked behind my mother, Samantha to hide myself so my grandparents wouldn’t see me.

 Out of nowhere, I saw someone come out of the black BMW, hugging me and kissing me all over my face. I looked up and saw a light skinned women, with jet black braided hair, no wrinkles. But, with a short stature in height, and she was really beautiful. She had on a blue shimmery dress, with a small feathery hat at the left side of her face.

She was stunning. How can she be grandmother Kristen. She looks so young…  

‘Is she my mum’s twin?’ I thought dimly as I already knew the answer to that question... Mum doesn’t have a sister. 

‘Ash, this is Grandma Kirsten and Grandpa Jeremy, my mum and dad. You were only one, when they came to London for your first birthday.’ Samantha said excitedly. 

I just stared at Grandma Kristen and then stared at my mother, really shocked. Trying to believe that Grandma Kristen is my mum’s, mum!
