Everything Happens For A Reason

chapter 2

today is the day. today is the day that I would be moving my whole life, leaving all my friends behind without them knowing that I'm leaving. yeah sure I want to say bye to my friends but I just don't feel like it, they won't even notice that I'm missing, and if they did then they'll just get over it in a day.

 I feel so empty like there's no reason to live, what is my purpose in this world, I'm nothing. why am I still alive? I questioned myself.

so here I am, packing up my bedroom. going through my clothes and chucking them in the 'what I want to keep and take with me pile' or 'the clothes that I will give to charity'. this took me 1 hour to sort through my clothes see what I want and what I don't want, then it took me 30 minutes to fold them neatly and place them in a suit case. after I finished my clothes I sorted through my shoes, makeup and accessories, and placed them in a box.

I walked to my bed and knelled down under my bed to get my album of photography's. I took it out and sat down crossed legs looking through the photos and smiling with tears slowly running down my face. one photo stood out to me, it was at my 7th birthday me and my brother had cake all over our faces, smiling like idiots and it looked like we mucking around, and in the background was my parents faces laughing at us, as I was about to turn the page. A knock on my door made me look up to see my brother there with a smile but you could tell it was forced. he is affected by all this as I am.

"Hey sis, we got leave now, I'll give you time to say bye to the house, I know how much you'll miss it, heck so will I" my brother said in a wisher,  walking to me and helping me up of the floor. I nodded and he took my box's and left to put them in the car.

I looked around at my now empty room, missing it already, there were so much memories that happened in this very room, to my first crush, to my first heart break, waking up to the sound of my brothers music coming from his room, annoying each other, playing pranks on each other, to the time when my parents will come in my room and will just hang out there just to annoy me, dad waking up early every morning and waking me up and if I don't get up he'll tip a bucket of cold water over me while I'm still in bed. waking up to mums cooking downstairs. with tears in my eyes I wiped them quickly not wanting anyone to see my red puffy eyes I put on sunglasses to hide my face, and walked downstairs.

I look around as I reached the last step, it looks so plain and dull, it doesn't have the homey feeling anymore as it used to, it just feels like a white house with no happiness or anything just simply plain.

I look at my brother who is now standing next to me with the same look on his face as I had. he put his arm around my shoulder and walked me towards the front door. with one look back signing, we closed the door and headed towards the car.

as we drove from the driveway I looked back to see the house that we have been living in since we were born, getting smaller and smaller and before I knew it, it disappeared. I turned back in my seat, looking straight ahead at the scenery passing by. I rested my head against the window and felt my eyes heavily closing against my own will, and feel into a deep asleep.

I wake up after an hour of sleep and look up at my brother.

"morning sleeping beauty, do you ever get enough sleep" my brother said with a smile on his face

"shut up I barely slept last night" I said back, which was true I barely got any sleep, I kept on waking up hoping everything was just a nightmare but to my dismiss it wasn't a dream, it was reality I had to face it sooner or later.  

"you're not the only one" he said back. we just sat in silence for the rest of the drive.

We have been driving for 5 hours and my butt was getting sore of sitting for too long and I was getting restless.

"how long till we get there?" I asked Jason, looking at him, his eyes set on the road, his lips in a firm line and his hands griping the steering wheel tightly. I knew he was thinking about our parents just by his eyes glistering with un shred tears.  

"hey everything will get better soon, there always a light at the end of a tunnel." I said looking at him, it was weird comforting him since he was the one who always comforts me. he turned his head briefly and smiled at me, a real smile this time. releasing his tight hold on the steering wheel, and his body relaxed.

"were nearly there" as he said that, he stopped the car and parked it in front of a nice looking two story house.

"welcome to our new home" he said, and we both got out of the car and headed toward the house.
