So yes, clearly I took my uncles offer. I'm on a plane headed to L.A and also headed to my new life. I'm actually feeling okay about this new change of scenery. I'm also glad that I can move on. I'm now putting the past behind me, and changing for the better. Who knows, I might even get to meet more of my family. My uncle was on his phone the whole time, talking to some lady. I knew it was a lady because I could hear her screechy voice through the black receiver. "Yes, we're on our way. The movers have everything packed, and they're shipping it over there right now. It should arrive in a few hours. Yes, Lane, I- hel- Lan- hello?" My uncle asked, looking at the screen. "Call dropped." He said, with a frown. "Ugh! These stupid airlines!" He yelped in frustration, gripping his phone. "Excuse me, Alex. I'll be right back." He said, getting up quickly, and moving to the front of the plane. I let out a deep sigh, and laid my head back. "This is going to be hectic." The 'always right' voice said. I looked out of the window, admiring the clouds. All of which were differently shaped.

FLASHBACK;
"Mom, have you ever wondered what a cloud would feel like?" I said, examining the sky. My mom and I were laying in the backyard, 'bird watching' I guess you could say. "Of course. I would always imagine myself building a house, and living with the man of my dreams. Sometimes I would come up with different scenarios about my future. Which always included the same 3 things. Love, dogs, and fancy cars." She laughed, closing her eyes. "Then I grew up, and instantly realized there was more to life then that. When I met your father, and had you, it was the happiest moment of my life. I distinctly remember how I felt in that moment. I was peaceful, happy, overwhelmed, and determined to give you the life that-" "Uh, Alex? Are you okay? Do you feel alright?" My uncle asked, worried. "Oh, yes, yes. I'm good, just kinda zoned out for a minute." I exclamed. He chuckled. "Yeah, I do that every once in awhile." He said, nodding his head. "So, is everything set?" I asked, putting my phone in my bag. (To be clear, this is plane that would be okay with electronics, clearly.) "Ah, yes. You're bags, and other items arrived a few minutes ago." He said, with a small smile. "Oh, well.. We have 1 hour before we land. Wanna catch up? On the past 18 years?" I managed to ask, letting a small chuckle escape my lips. He let out a small laugh, and turned towards me. " I have no problem with that."

1 hour later.

"Alex, wake up. We've arrived." My uncle stated, gathering his things. Once I fully gathered my surroundings, I looked around at all the empty seats. To be honest, that was the best sleep I've received in a long time. I retrieved all my magizines, and placed them back into my bag in a neat order. This is it. This is where my life is fixing to change. For the better, I hope.

At the house. (Picture is above.)

This house is so beautiful, oh my- "Hi Alex, my name is Lane. I'll be showing you around because your uncle has to get back to work." The tall lady said, with an extremely fake smile. I nodded, and picked up my suitcases. "Were we are right now, is the living room. This has two parts. One is for work, the other is for relaxing." She said, showing me the two divided rooms. Which are very huge. "Now up here, there are 9 rooms. You will have this room." She stated, stopping in front of a small door. "Why are there so many rooms?" The voice in my head asked.
