"Well, what do you think"?.Said my mother.
Hmm. What
do I think? Well I've been sitting in my
moms car for 4 straight hours from a
car ride from Maryland to New Jersey.
I thought our new home,a small grey
condo was the hideous thing I've ever
seen. But on the bright side, it was
exactly the same butthole hideous as
every other condo on this block of
orchard Ville. So at least it wasn't alone
In its butthole hideousness. The last
Time I was in orchard Ville, about 18
Months ago, there was a gorgeous
Apple orchard right there were I was
Standing. Which was now replaced
With ugly grey condos. sigh. There was
Only one thing left to do. Answer my
Mother's question. So I smiled and said
"It's great mom". Her sad, tired green eyes brightened up. "Aw, don't you think?
And honey, it's not forever. I'm going
To put half my paycheck away every
Every week, and Danielle said that before we know it, we'll be able to afford one of those cute houses over by the library and..."
Danielle. Danielle Moore, was the mother of my old best friend Shannen Moore and the only one of my mom's
Friends from orchard Ville who still talked to her. Probably because she understood that wives and daughters shouldn't be responsible for the actions of husbands and fathers.
One of the movers was walking by with my bike.
"Um excuse me?, can I have my bike please?"
He grunted. And set down my bike with a loud thud.
"Thanks". He grunted again and moved on.
I got on my bike, and started breathing slowly.
"Ally where are you going? My mom said.
"Don't you wanna see you're room?"
"Ill see it later. I'm going for a ride.
"Where"? I hope you're not thinking of.."
Too late. I was going to go see my old house.
