Mom got a promo

Kiera

I woke up to the blasting of Motley Crüe in my ear. Jolting up in my bed I groan as the early raise of sun burned my sleep deprived eyes. I'd only gotten to bed maybe two hours ago. No I don't have trouble sleeping. I was out taking care of business. Slitting tyres kinda business. Anyways that doesn't need to be mentioned...well not yet anyways. Wiping the sleep from my eyes I trudge to the bathroom, take a shower and start my morning for yet another day.

"Morning sweetie breakfast will be ready in a minute." Mom says as I pull on my shoes. Sitting at the table mom places a plate of French toast on the table. "Your in a good mood." I say and she smiles sitting on the chair in front of me. "Well I know it's been a little hard on us since your dad left and all but things are gonna change. My boss gave me a promotion and we're moving to America!" Mom says excited and I drop my toast along with my jaw. I couldn't believe her. I mean I could but America? You've got to be kidding me. We were moving to where our misery is. Dad was in America, what the hell are we gonna do if we see him in the store? I mean I wanna kill the hoe he left mom for. I wanna kill him for not being there for me like he promised.
"When do we go?" I ask. "Next week so today's your last day at school." Mom chirps and I choke on the piece of toast I just put into my mouth. Fuck me six days from today and we'll be in America, the same country and that scumbag I call my dad lives. Let's hope where we are moving isn't close to him at all.

I get to school depressed. In all honesty this place was my second home. I was happy here and actually enjoyed school. Then again I had friends, I was in a group that was popular. I was living the high school dream here. Today was the last day of that. I best savour the feeling of being liked, looked up to and happy I guess because American girls are BITCHES! Literally you have to be a fake blonde bimbo to be popular and classed as pretty. America was a basic white girls biggest fear. There's no way in hell I'm gonna fit in. "Kiera oh my god guess who I was talking to last night?" Abi says as she engulfs me in the usual morning hug. "Who were you talking to last night?" I ask interested in who she'd spoken to and what had her in a chirpy morning this morning. "Jesy and guess what she said?" Abi says. "What did she says Abi?" I ask and she smiles. "Jesy said her parents were allowing two of her closest friends to live with them in their huge ass house!" Abi squeals in excitement and I smile then just forget it. I wasn't happy at all. I was gonna leave two of my closest friends and three of my other friends forever. Sure I'd be able to visit but when? I'm only 15 and by the time I go back the girls would have forgotten me, made new and better friends. I always wanted a do over but not in America! "What's wrong buttercup?" Abi asks and I shake it off and keep walking until she stopped me and made me spill. "I'm leaving for America in six days. For good." I say and she bursts out out crying. My heart ached and I didn't know what to do. I'd have hugged her but I didn't want to cry. I was leaving her so I couldn't be the one she cried on. Walking off and leaving her by her locker to cry I just grab my things and get on with the day.
