It Was That Morning I Knew , I Knew My Life Was Gonna Change...

(Flashback)... As Much As I Hated That School Bus It Was Amazing Being With My Brother, Zach Who Sat Next To Me All The Time, Me And Him Were Close As Brother And Sister Much Closer Then Our Older Brother, Rene Who Was Only 5 Years Older Then Us . But This Morning Was Different...I Woke Up Startled, By Somebody Yelling. Which Sounded Very Close So I Decided To Walk Towards My Parents Room Only To See My Dad Hovered Over My Mom, Who Happened To Be Covered In Bruises, Cuts And Lots Of Blood. Me And Zach Stood There For Almost A Min Before My Dad Started Crying And Grabbed What Seemed To Be A Bag Full Of Clothes And Crushed Beer Cans And Walked Towards Us. My Mom Was Yelling Which Made Me Cry, Which Made Her Cry More. Then My Dad Grabbed Zach By His Arm Which Made Him Cry And Yell...Then They Were Both Gone, Out The Door My Brother And Dad Gone...Later That Morning My Mom Sat Me Down And Went On And On About My Life.. It Was All A Lie. That Wasn't My Brother, That Wasn't My Dad. I Felt Like My Heart Was Just Shattered On The Ground. I Sat There Thinking, Wondering For What Felt Like Hours..But Was Only A Short Few MInutes. "Hurry And Get Ready Star The Bus Will Be Here Any Minute." The Bus, School, My Brother...Well Not My Brother Never Was...This Just Changed Everything. Everyday Will Be Different....

As I Finally Got To School From What Seemed To Be The Most Weirdest, Loneliest Bus Ride Ever. I Went Straight To Class Didn't Even Stop By The Cafeteria To Eat Breakfast...Then It Hit Me, Teachers,Friends Started Asking For Him With All Worried Faces... My Chest Tightened I Couldn't Breathe. " He Went Outta Town." I Said. They All Asked " Where ? Why ? When Will He Be Back ? Why Didn't You Go ? " ... I Started Crying But I Went Straight To My Seat And Put My Head Down And Didn't Talk For The Rest Of The Day, During Lunch I Stayed In Class Saying I Didn't Feel Good. As I Walked Into The Bus I Was Hoping And Praying That All This Was Just A Dream And In A Few Minutes Zach Would Be Coming In This Bus Sitting Right Next To Me Like He Usually Did. But It Wasn't A Dream The Bus Started Leaving. As Soon As I Got Home I Was Welcomed By Some Officer I Was Very Confused So I asked Them " Who Are You ? What Are You Doing Here ? Where Is My Mom ? " After A Few Minutes Of Silence... " Your Gonna Be Away From Your Mom For A While" The Officer Said.. I Didn't Understand But I Knew I Didn't Need To Say Anything I Felt My Silence Said A Lot Already.
