Last Chance

Arrival

      I didn't arrive at my Aunt and Uncle's House until three days after school was over. Three days after my last time being at home till the summer ends and school starts again. Though, right now, I'm not going to dread on the past, I'm going to look towards what this summer may hold.

      I haven't seen my Aunt Helen and Uncle Charles for several years, mainly because my family just didn't have a lot of time to visit, we were always doing something every other day. Then Aunt Helen and Uncle Charles couldn't visit us because they were just as busy as us, because of The Boat House, which is Uncle Charles store.

      I got out of my car and grabbed my things and closed the trunk.  Then Aunt Helen must of heard that I was here from inside because she came rushing out in a flurry. She came running at me and yanked me into a hug, she may not be as tall as me but she does certainly has strong arms. Though her hug was just as warm and loving as i remember it being. 

      She pulled back and exclaimed with a happy smile."My dear, Amiline, you sure have grown over the years. You were only twelve, when I last saw you and now your what? Seventeen? Gosh, I just cant believe it!"

      I smiled at her and she pulled me back into another tight, loving hug.

      Then I heard Uncle Charles' voice in the background saying." Helen, why don't you give the some room. She wasn't even out of her car for five minutes before being swept into you suffocating grip of a hug. She may just pass out from you squeezing her so much."

      She laughed and let me go. And turned to Uncle Charles, "For your information, Charles Honey, she was quiet enjoying my so called suffocating hug."

      Uncle Charles came over and hugged me and when he pulled back he said. "I sure have missed you, girl."

      "I missed you too Uncle Charles." I said to him, with a happy smile on my face.

      "So how are your parents and brother doing?"

      "They are doing well. Though apologize for not being able to come and to spend time here for a little while. Quinn had an away game and since Dad is the coach of the team as well, so he had to go as well."

      "And your Mom wanted to go with you Dad." Aunt Helen nodded her head with understanding.

      I nodded as well.

      "Well, shall we get you settled into your room?" Uncle Charles said with a clap of his hands and then gesturing towards the house.

      So here I am in the room I'll be staying for the summer. The room had a closet, a dresser and full size bed. The bed had purple sheets and a quilt. I placed my two pillows on my new bad and looked around at the light yellow walls of the room. Aunt Helen said that she didn't know what i would have liked for room decor. She told me that we would go to Hobby Lobby or Khols for room decor. I told her, that she didn't have to that, that i had brought some of my stuff along with me but she had insisted. She proclaimed that she wanted me to be comfortable here and to make it my own, to get me to feel like I'm at home. I finally relented to her, and she smiled and said that we will be going this weekend. since she has to go to work for the rest of the week. 

      I spent the rest of the afternoon unpacking and setting some of my things where i would like them to be. I got a quick nap because the drive out here, really made me tired. Then Aunt Helen hollered for me saying that dinner was ready.

      Dinner was good, Aunt Helen is a great cook but not as great as my Mom. Though I didn't say that to Aunt Helen, I just complemented that the food is really good. During the course of dinner, there was some small talk, like as in how I'm doing in school and some talk on the travels Aunt Helen and Uncle Charles had been on.

      After we all finished dinner, I insisted on doing the dishes tonight. They did try to argue but soon gave up when they saw i wasn't going to budge. Once the the dishes were done, I went into the living room where Aunt Helen and Uncle Charles were and said goodnight to them and they wished me goodnight as well. Then I went to get ready for bed. I brushed my teeth and washed my face. Then i went to bed and stared at the ceiling. Tears, slowly slide down my cheeks, making them all wet and dewy. I roll over and bury my head into my pillow. I smell my home faintly on my pillow and I sob. I miss home so much but I know this summer, is going to do a world of good for me. But right now, I don't care. I want to be home.

      When I finally stop sobbing. I fall asleep in an exhausted heap, the drive and from a long day. I close my eyes, imaging home with a heavy heart.
