The day went pretty quickly with Matt and before I knew it, it was time to go back to Rosas. I was really quiet around him and kinda wanted to keep my life a secret and not open up to him about anything, even the most stupid things like the type of music I listen to. I don't really feel like he deserves to know yet. if that makes sense

Matt had dropped me off around 7 pm and told me he would see me tomorrow. "so did you have fun?" rosa asked me, "yeah" I replied with a yawn. I walked into the living room practically throwing myself onto the sofa. I turned on the tv and put the news on. I never watch tv unless it's a music channel or the news cause there is never anything interesting on. Everything on the news was about politics. politics kinda interested me but not when it is not about my country. I kept it on anyway and just went on my phone. I am not going to school tomorrow because I need to pack my stuff so I can leave with Matt later on.


Around 11pm I went to bed. I kept thinking about tomorrow. My once warm, loving home. Now a cold, gruesome crime scene. police tape still surrounds the area. I walked past it on my way back from school Friday. I thought about my mother. An angel taken way too soon. Oh God, how I miss her! I miss her every day. I miss the way she talked, walked, acted. Just everything. Why did he get to choose when her life ended? that monster. How could anybody kill their wife? the one they deemed the love of their life. the one he shared his first and hopefully final vows with. the woman he spent every day with. they slept in the same room, same bed. they shared the same house. How could someone do that to an innocent person? Before I knew it, hot tears rolled down my soft cheeks. I quickly wiped them away. I rolled over and plugged my phone in. I then closed my eyes and fell into a deep, dreamless sleep.
