We reach what I assume is home because we drive all the way into the garage. My father parks the car. Gets out, and take the few things I had at the hospital out of the trunk. I open the door and get out of the car. Closing the door behind me. I look around. There is nothing much in it. There are two other cars, but that is pretty much it. My parents leads me inside the house through a door. We enter directly into the huge combined kitchen and dining room. I didn't remember our house this big.
Henry leads me through the house that feels more like a mansion to me. We enter a huge room. Some people live in houses that aree only as big this room. I look around there is a big queen-sized bed in the middle of the back wall. The wall has a big fuchsia pink circle in the middle and the rest of the wall is a blend between the fuchsia pink and a dark lavender purple color. In the circle is the most inspiring quote I've seen. ''you don't always need a plan. Sometimes you just need to breathe, trust, and let go. '' I feel myself taking a deep breath and exhaling loudly. There are other smaller quotes on the wall randomly placed around the circle. '' Tuff times don't last. Tuff people do - rehab '' I smile. I'm tuff.
I look at the other walls. One is filled with books and pictures of the 12 years old me and my family. Some of the faces in the pictures other than my own, Henrys and Louise's seems familiar but I can't put my finger on why, or who they are. I smile slightly I actually remember some of these memories. In the corner there is a big desk with some more photos on. The third wall that is opposite from the door is almost entirely made of windows with a beautiful view over the huge garden that I assume we own also. On the last wall there is three doors they are marked with the words 'closet, exit and bathroom' written in a 12 years old handwriting.
The room is nicely cleaned. I open the closet door. Another huge room meats my eyes and there are shoes and clothes everywhere. I don't think I will be able to fit any of it though. I walk to the bathroom and I am in awe when I see a bathtub and a shower. And of cause the usual a toilet and a sink. While I look around my father is just standing there looking at me like he doesn't think it's real. That I am really here. I am about to ask him why he is looking at me in that way but before the words can leave my lips my mother calls the both of us down for dinner.
******
We sit around the dinner table. I think we could fit 30 people around the table but it's only the three of us in one of the ends. The food is delicious and I feel a wave of serious hunger hit me and I go for seconds. And then thirds. Ho knew lasagna could taste this good.
When I'm done I sit back and my parents just smile at me. They look shortly at each other and begins to giggle. I look at them. ''what is it? '' I ask. They shake their heads. ''nothing it's just nice to have you home and to see you move. '' My mother says. I smile at them. A comfortable silence falls upon us ad my mother decides to go get some dessert for me and my father.
As I eat the dessert enjoying every mouthful of the sweet sweet apple pie. My mother clears her voice. I turn my attention to her ''Lily do you want to accompany me on a mother daughter shopping spree tomorrow. My treat? I don't think you will fit into much of the clothes you currently have. '' I nod and smile swallowing what is in my mouth. ''yes I would love to go buy clothes with you. '' Her smile grow wider and apparently now it's my father's turn to say something. By the look on his face I can see it's quite serious what he is about to say so I look him in the eye telling him to go ahead and tell me what he has to say.
'' you need to go back to school. '' I smile. I loved school as far as I can remember. '' this time around we're talking about college. '' I gulp, my eyes widening. I sink my food. Of cause it is I'm 18 now I keep forgetting. I nod at my parents '' where? '' I ask.
'' Morehouse college Right here in Atlanta. You used to say you wanted to go there when you grew up so I pulled some strings. And as of Monday you are an official student there. '' A smile grows on my face. I did always say I wanted to go there. Then this would be kind of a dream come true.
After dinner I go to bed and awaits tomorrow where I go with my mom to the mall. I wonder how much from there I can remember and how much has changed.
