River

I wake up to my alarm. One more day I gotta go to that fucking school. I'm really fed up with that school, with this place where I live (it can be wherever u want it to be),people here are annoying and stupid, but even tho I hate this place, I don't really wanna get outta here now, maybe later, but not now, I'm not ready to move anywhere. I'm 16 years old, about to turn 17 in 3 months. Anyways, I got up, did my morning routine and went downstairs. My mom was sitting there, eating her breakfast.

- Hey mom.

- Hey hun.

- I'm late, I gotta go to school.

- I need to talk to you.

- Hmm.. Did u just listen to what I said, I'm late to --

- I don't care, please sit down River.

Well, I hate going to school anyways so fine by me.

- What is it?

- So, I was talking to my friend that lives in Cali, and I know that you're not happy here. So I asked her if you could go live with her, her husband and her kid for a while.

- Fr? What did she say?

- She said it was ok.

- Mom, I know that I'm not happy here, and thank u for trying to get me outta here, but I don't really wanna go.

- Why?

- Idk, I just don't wanna go.

- River, I've talked to her, and I wasn't asking, you're going, I'm gonna stay here working for a while until I get enough money to buy a house there. Go and pack your bags.

I sighed and went to my room. Why tf did I have to go? But maybe I would be happier there the what I am here, we never know, and I would try to be nice to everyone, you know, a new start. Focus on the positive things. I wasn't even going to school, so I went back to my room, packed my bags and then I went back to sleep.

Next Day

I was already in Cali. I got my luggage and I went to the room where my mom's friend was waiting for me. I saw a woman with a paper saying "River Bleu". I walked to her, she was really pretty. When she saw me, she started smiling.

- River?

- Yeah, it's me. - I said smiling.

- Wow, you're really pretty, and grown, welcome to Cali!

- Thanks!

She helped me with the luggage and we got into her car. While we were in the car on our way to their house, I was just thinking about how my life sucked. I had no friends, I had nobody or nothing but my mom. It was literally just me and my mom. Here I hope to make friends, be happy, I hope that soon my mom gets here so we can live together. We got to the DeLaRosa's house, it was big. She opened the door and helped me again with the luggage.

- Well, welcome to your new house.

- It's a beautiful house Ms. Delarosa.

- Oh, thanks River. My husband is at work and my son, Jaden, went out with his friends.

- Oh, that's ok.

- Let me show you your room.

She went upstairs and I followed her. She showed me my room, that was across Jaden's room, at least that's what she said. My room was big and it had a bathroom inside it. Now I'm kinda excited for starting to live here, God knows how much I hated that place where I lived in.
