Who You Are

♡ the move ♡

Marilynn Rose’s POV:

This day has been dreaded since last week. I’ve always been scared I would be forced to move, but I never thought it would be when my life was finally perfect. I had been working years and years to make my life become something I was proud of, and now it’s all going into the trash. I lived in Lee Sumit, Missouri at the moment, but not for long. My parents are moving to New York, which means I will be forced to go with them until the age of 18. I had given all my effort in raising my grades, putting on a better body, a healthier life style, plans for my future here in Lee Sumit, all for it just to be thrown away. I won’t have a future here, I’ll have to  have a future in New York until I’m 18, which I’m 17 as of right now, but I am not leaving until I am finished with school as a high school graduate.

It was going to be hard waking up knowing that I won’t be in the house I grew up in, or even the city I grew up in! It was 7:21am and I had to get my ass to packing. I had packed all of my things up into boxes and bags except personal items such as, makeup, electronics, some clothing, movies, and hair products. We had to be out of the house at 8:30am and be ready to have a road trip to New York. Deciding to shower, I grabbed my bag of showering essentials and went to shower. I always like to shower when I’m upset or like to think about things. It just ticked me off that my parents bought the house without consulting me in it, or waiting to go until I was old enough to be by myself. I mean, was waiting 3 months a big deal? I’m not sure what my parents were thinking. I know my parents are not aware of my unhappiness of the move, and I’d like to keep it that way. As I make my way out of the shower, I put on my black leggings, a red and black plaid jacket around my waist, and a black crop top. My style was pretty simple and laid back, but it also wasn’t ‘’ I just rolled out of bed ‘’ look either.

As I pack my personal items up I step away and take a rest as I text my friends to see if we are still up to say goodbye today. Going as planned, they are up and getting together as we text. My ‘’ group ‘’ consist of; Rylie, Sawyer, Arabella, Anelise, Jayde, Kaiser, Zayden and Beatrice.  Everyone was coming to say goodbye except Beatrice, as she is on vacation in Seattle visiting family. Which I understood being how I was told while we was on the plane to Seattle. I was excited but also upset on seeing all my friends. Seeing them is going to make me miss them even more, but not seeing them is going to make me miss them even more. I just couldn’t win at life at this very moment.

As the clock ticked 8am my family and I were done packing all of our stuff up. We were all going in my father’s truck since my mother and I didn’t have our own vehicles. I have money saved up for a car from working, but I just haven’t found the one yet. I’m still trying to find a decent ’98 Camaro.

‘’ You all ready to say goodbye to Lee Sumit? ‘’ My father ask as he comes behinds me, putting his arm around me looking into the country behind our finger tips. I don’t think he noticed how I have changed lately, but it’s too late for him to notice now. We are leaving, we are actually moving to New York and there is not a single thing I could do to stop or change it.

‘’ I’m never saying goodbye to Lee Sumit, this is just a long vacation for me ‘’
