Hot and cold. That's what this move is. While i'm excited to get out of Texas. I'm gonna miss all the people here. LA is far away. I wont be able to see them anymore. I stand outside of my car hugging all my friends bye, before getting in my car and following my mom's car on the 23 hour drive. I let a few tears fall down my cheeks as i drive down the road. I cry even more about an hour later when i see the sign that says your leaving Texas.
I pull up behind my mom's car at the hotel we will be staying at for the night before getting up and driving again the next day. I feel exhasted as i get up in the morning and get back in my car for the rest of the drive.
I follow my mom into a neighborhood in LA. My eye's widen when we pull up to a gross looking apartment building. I get out of my car and look at my mom confused.
"Mom. Where are we?" I ask.
"This is where we live now sweetie." She told me.
"Here?!? Really? How could we move from a nice 4 bedroom house to this?" I yell.
"I didnt have the money for anything else." She tells me.
"You said you got a good job offer mom! That's why we moved!" I yelled.
"No! We moved because your father got out of jail and tried to kill me to get to you!" She screamed before just walking in the apartment. I slid to the ground and started crying. I cant believe that bastard! How dare he try to come back into my life after what he did to me! I sat there and cried it out for a while before getting back up and walking into my apartment. The place is a dump. It only has 1 bedroom. A small bathroom. A crappy kitchen. And a tiny living room. I sigh when i notice my mom is setting her things up in the only bedroom. Which means i get the couch. Great. Sarcasm intended. I sit my bags beside the ratty old couch and let a stray tear run down my cheek.
I decided at that moment that when i go to this new school. Nobody can know where i live. Nobody. I am going into this new highschool as the happy, carefree, 18 year old Demi Lovato. No problems with family or money or anything. I will be happy. No matter what.
