Chapter 4: About Giving up

"Where are we?" I woke up with my eyes glued shut because of crying. I was struggling to find something to help open my eyelids.

" Right now we are in Missouri. We should be in Wisconsin in about 8 hours at the rate we are going." My dad grunted after he finished his senence.

I finally got my eyelids apart and could see almost clearly. It hurt a lot but at least I could finally see what I was doing and who was up.

" Ok so why am I even up? Gesh I could still be sleeping." I laughed thinking that everyone else would start laughing but nobody else did.

" Emma your jokes are horrible. We have been stuck in a van for A DAY AND A HALF! Courtney won't keep her head off me and I'm getting mad. If you think this car ride is soooo much fun trade seats with me and feel how it feels to have a sister hanging all over you while you try to sleep!"

" Ok Bri it's not that bad we have 8 hours to go if you survived this long you can last another 8. Stop being such a crybaby all your life gosh!"

 I pulled Bris little hairs and she got pissed. Bri turned around and started to hit me. After a few hits she turned around and sat back down like nothing ever happened.

"THAT IS ENOUGH! I know we have been in this van for a while but now you two are getting a bit out of hand. I want you two to apologize to one another and be quiet for the rest of the ride. Got it?"

"Ughhh. Got ittt!"

We both looked at each other and apologized. I reached in the back and pulled my backpack out from underneath everything. I went in the front pocket and grabbed my ipod and ear buds. Knowing that there was only 5 hours left till we reached our destination.

"I wanna cry. I hate the van it makes me so mad that I spend like a year in here. I swear if we move one more time I might as well run away or die in a hole by myself." Courtney grunted as she spoke

"Courtney shut up. You know we will be moving within the next 6 months without a doubt."

I was getting so fustrated with my sisters it was unbelievable. I wanted to rip off their heads but I knew I couldn't do that. I plugged in my earbuds and started to listen to music, blaring it so maybe I would losing my hearing so I don't have to hear the brats my so called sisters argue. I began to drift back to sleep.
