Baylin's POV
I laughed as my mom told me we were moving from Florida back to Chicago because she couldn't find a job here.
"Isn't that the same reason we moved here from Chicago?" I asked as I sat on the kitchen counter.
"That was a lie. It was really because I couldn't stand being in the same state your father was killed in." My mother admitted, putting things into boxes. "Now start packing, we leave tomorrow."
I nearly choked on the vodka I was sharing with my mother when I'd heard her say we were leaving tomorrow. I nodded and hopped off the counter, running to my room in the basement. As I was packing things into boxes and bags, I decided to FaceTime Xavier, knowing he would be with Jordan. The 3 of us have been inseparable since kindergarten an we were all sad when we found out I was leaving for Florida but we kept in touch.
Jordan answered Xavier's phone. Knew it.
"YO, BAY! WHY SO SMILEY?" He shouted over the music they were blaring before Xavier turned it down and stood over his friend's shoulder.
"Well I mean, I'm move back to Chicago tomorrow." I smiled.
"Holy shit! No way." Xavier said while Jordan smiled.
"Way." I replied.
