Unpredictable Love

"But mom, I don't want to go. Why can't I just stay here with you. Why do I have to live with him?"

I begged my mom not to send me of to live with my father for the next months, actually she never said anything about a time range, nothing, it could be just for a week or a month but it could also be a year. I didn't know and she didn't tell me but what I knew is that it would be a long time.

My mom and dad have been divorced for 6 years now and and it that time I have only seen my father twice. I didn't even know him anymore and now my mom wants me to stay with him for a matter of time.

"You need to understand I dislike this as much as you do but you also need to understand that we don't have any other choice." My mom tried to calm me down like she has been trying to for the last hour. She just doesn't understand, I mean I haven't seen my father since I was fourteen and I am now turning seventeen in a month.

"Lilly, I know that you don't really like the idea of living with your father but he is excited to see you again and to spend some time with his daughte-"

"Mom, he never spend any time with me! Why now? Why does he suddenly care?"

"please Lilly just give him a chance, I know that he wasn't the father I always wanted for you to have but maybe he can make some of the lost time up to you. And it's not forever, we'll see each other soon enough. But now go upstairs and pack, we gonna leave in a few hours. I don't want to be stuck in traffic on the way to your dad"

I went back up the stairs to my room, with nothing than pure annoyance written on my face and my mind. I know that I had no choice than to live with him but that that doesn't mean that I would be happy about it. I've no idea how long I would stay with my dad with that in mind I pulled my suitcase out under my bed and started packing my essential clothing pieces in it. Actually that consisted mostly of jeans and simple tops but since I had no idea how my dad lived, I decided to pack some dresses and skirts in it too.

After packing in stuff like my hairbrush ; my small collection of makeup, which only composed of mascara, concealer, foundation, powder and all of my girly stuff- I was ready to go and spend "some" time with my father. That was not really what I expected my life to be like at the moment. This's probably the only time that I have ever wished I would go to a normal school, but no, my mom had to get me out of school at the age of fifteen and I started "going to school" via internet. I enroled in the courses I would usually take my a-levels at school in on the internet.

I have to say that it's not the worst thing that has ever happened to me, but sometimes I wished that I could go to a normal school, in times like this. If I went to a normal school, my mom couldn't just drive me across the whole country to live with my dad. But nop, thank you school, you have helped me again, thanks.

It's not that I don't like goodbyes in general, I just don't like to say goodbye to something when you don't even know for how long you are going to be way. With one last look on my moms house I got in the car and sighted.

"Lilly, everything is going to be fine" my mom tried to calm me down while starting the engine.

"I don't know why you are sending me of to dad but I'm sure that you have a reason to do so. I just want you to know that I honestly dislike the fact that you wouldn't even tell me why!" It's not the fact that she didn't even looked at me while I was saying this, or the fact that she didn't even flinch when my voice started to rise, no, it was the fact that she didn't answer me. Not for the whole car ride.

Me and my mom getting in a fight is nothing unusual but not really getting a word out of her for the rest of the car ride and up to the moment we arrived, is.

My mom stopped the car in front of a business house in London. I was pretty confused when we suddenly were in London, since I didn't remember my dad having the money to live there.

"Lilly, your dad must be already waiting for you. Just ask the receptionist. She'll guide you to him. I am sorry I don't think that I should go inside with you. Just- you know I love you and that I will call you as soon as possible. Now enjoy your stay with your dad." And that's all she said to me before embracing me one last time and then getting back into the car and driving of. I don't remember how I long I actually stood in front of the building just imagining why my dad lived and or worked in of of these and then I

decided to just find out and ask him.

Once I entered the building a young woman, maybe in her middle twenties, greeted me with a big smile.

"You must me Lilly, right?"

"Yes, I am how did you know ?"I asked kind of confused that she knew my name. She just smiled even bigger and pointed at my suitcase next to me.

"Your father said that you were staying with him for a little while. Come on. Let me show you where you are going to live for the next months. I think your father should already be there"

Did she really just say next months?

I didn't imagine having to stay with my dad for that long. I just hoped for the best that maybe I could go home earlier than I thought .we went through the huge entrance hall but we did not stop in front of the elevator as I thought we would do, because there was no staircase in sight. And from outside the building looked huge so I was sure that they didn't even have a staircase reaching all the way up to the highest floor.

We stopped in front of the a huge metal-door, she looked back at me making sure that I was following her, which I did, kinda confused. Then she opened the door and we suddenly stood behind the building on a private road with 2 huge busses standing right in front of me and my dad stood there in front of all of them smiling brightly at me. I only had time to read the name written on of the busses before I was embraced in a bone crashing hug from my dad.

The Vamps ?
