"It's only been a month since the funeral, lilly, are you sure you still want to go to college? You can always go next year..." my concerned grandma said with a sad frown while helping me pack my bags.

"Im going. I'll be fine. You'll be fine. It's what mum would have wanted. It's seriously only an hour away gram gram. She always dreamed of me going to college" I reassured her with a warm hug.

"All right beautiful.. if you say so"

I felt horrible leaving my grandma. I was the only family she had left. And besides my older brother, she was mine. My mother had recently died in a car crash and my father died in the war when I was younger. My brother and I don't speak much and I live with my grandma. She's always been there for me, no matter what.

"Jaxx boy!!" I called as my my little trouble making husky came running down the hall
"jaxx you have to look after gram gram for me, okay??" I said making him look at me completely confused. He must have known I was going.

My grandma helped me as I pack the last of my bags into the trunk of my 67 Chevy impala. Man I loved my baby. It was my dads car until he died in war. He left it for me in his will.

" I love you my gorgeous girl. Be safe!!"
"I love you too grandma!!" I yelled as I drove off.
Finally going to college. It was a new beginning for me and I was exited to start it...
