My name is Lynette Hernandez, I live in Indiana with my mom. My dad had recently been put in prison when I was 5 years old. He recently was put in prison in Indiana, but they transferred him to LA for state reasons. I am now 16, not living a perfect life, nor place. That is filled with constant violence...

"But mom I don't want to move to another state. I like the one that I'm in right now. I don't want to lose my friends I like it here, mom please listen to me!" - I said in a sad tone of voice.

"I'm sorry mija, but its the best for us. We could start a whole new chapter trust me please." - My mom replied back.

I didn't know what to think anymore. Realizing that I'm going to lose my friends, going to a new school and now making new friends. We had officially started packing because of the fact that we only have a week left. The more the things are being packed I thought to myself, "Wow this is actually happening right now isn't it ." 

As days go by, I didn't know how I would've thought about leaving, the place where I grew up with childhood friends. Till now making new one. How I felt was unexplainable in my head "Would the people in my new school like me ? Would I make new friends ?" - I said to myself.  I never thought that this would ever happen to me. Why me?
