I was heading at the taxi taking my suitcase with me. I was going to Yale.
Not weird I suppose as my father is the principal. I am really mad at him for doing this to me. To my life. Sometimes I really question. Does he even care about me? Going to Yale means losing the contact with my bffs: Nefeli, Margaret and Tonia. These girls mean a world to me. They are the greatest people I could ask for apart from my sister. My mother was one of the most loving people I knew. And she continues to be despite the fact that she is dead due to a car accident.
When my mother died I really didn't want to do amything. I didn't want to think of anything. I loved my mother as nothing in the world. She was caring, soft, sweet, acted like a rebel when needed but simultaneously she was peaceful and quite.Nothing was like her. But let's don't talk about that now. I really can't handle it. I walked outside the house. I heard a voice behind me.
"EVE EVE!"
It was my sister.She ran and hugged me tight.
"Do you have to leave? I can't deal with it. I can't. I haven't the courage you have. I am not ready to be alone. Please don't leave."
She said with tears in her face.
"I must leave. But... I will come here again when I can. I promise. I will visit you often. I promise. I really promise it to you. I love you."
"/Sniff sniff/ I love you too. I can't lose you as I lost mom."
"You won't. I promise. Please take really care of yourself. Be careful. And... take care of dad...I will have to face him all day as he will be at work in the university but when he comes home after work please take care of him.You can call me whenever you want and we can also talk by messages and the video camera. And remember: I am always here for you!"
"You are amazing Eve. I really admire you. You remember me mom. You act like her. You are like her most times. I am proud of every single day. Please be careful too at the university."
She said and backed away from the hug for a minute. She looked deeply in my eyes and I was sure that she was thinking if I could just not go at university at all. She gave me a peck on the cheek and waved at me as the car was moving away from home. I was going away not having my sister with me... I really can't have it. I am emotionally destroyed...
I just wish that I will forget about all that when I arrive at the university.
But it will be really difficult to do so.
I will have the face of my sister in my mind in order to give me courage to continue.
I am sure it will be a day full of surprises....
