Few months have passed ever since mum left. Tomi and I were still strong. I took my mum's advice and now, Savannah was my friend. Tomi and I hanged out with our friends after school at the Wasser Cafe. I found out that Tomi's dad was actually the owner of that cafe. And get this, the Wasser Cafe was one of the cafe that he owns in town. I didn't knew Tomi was really that rich. Oh well.
Dad was holding up well. He didn't drink to get mum off his mind, instead he was living life to the fullest.
Mr Hanks was impressed with my painting that I've submitted few months ago. He hanged my painting in the hallways. It was a black and white painting of a girl trying to break down the wall to get to the other side of the wall. I started to let people in, little by little. Now, Miranda, Bethany and Jason were waiting for Tomi and I to grab lunch together.
Everyday was a brand new day. I got to known the story of missing Bradley. It turns out that they took Bradley's body to be cremated because they found a letter Bradley left them stating he wanted his ashes to be thrown at the pier where Brad and I used to go as he loved the sounding waves. They asked me to throw his ashes by the sea, and gladly, I accepted it. My life was turning back again. It was good all good until one morning..
"TOMI! WE ARE LATE FOR SCHOOL," I opened the door and there was a lady standing in the doorway.
"Seline?" The lady asked.
"Yes, do you need anything?""You look beautiful," she said slowly.
"Thank you, and who are you?""I.. I'm your real mother.." the lady stammered.
She can't be my real mum. I took a step back and slammed the door. Tomi ran down and saw me slamming the door. "Is everything okay, Sel?" he asked.
I looked at him. "I don't think it will be anymore."
