It felt so great to finally meet someone who actually called me a friend instead of a murderer. Maybe I will warm up to this, maybe my mom was right, maybe she did make the right choice for me. But I was still very mad at her, I mean who wouldnt be mad? It was like my life was a childhood story only it would end that they never lived happily ever after. Was this true? Was this really going to be it? My mind was trying to doubt it but in my heart I knew it was true. This is the end of a chapter in my book. I felt rather weak and upset.
"is it okay that I name this dolley after your name" she asked with the most cute puppy dog eyes that you could never say no to.
"it's totally fine, I actually think it's rather sweet." I looked at her.
"CLAIRE!! COME DOWN AND FINISH PACKING!" my mom screamed.
I sprinted down the stairs not saying a word and headed toward the car to grab my stuff. I headed in and set the old wrinkly bag beside the door.
We finished packing everything and my mom finally announced that she would be leaving. More tears. Much more tears.
" this is it," I spoke.
She nodded her head softly and hugged me. And hugged me. It was as sad as someone dying. It was so hard. My throat was sore and it felt like I couldn't talk. Every time I tried it sounded more like a squeal.
"BEEEP! BEEEEEEEEEP! BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!"
My alarm clock went off and I woke up.
I woke up with tears in my eyes. It was such a nightmare. I had never had anything like it before, it felt so realistic, so unspeakably realistic. I could have sworn it was real. I sighed, more of a relieved sigh than sad sigh. The weird thing was that I was moving just like in the dream... I was so confused.
