I breathe on the glass of the foggy window, listening to my older brother go on about how this was a "New Start" for us.

My tired eyes fixed on my phone. The light shined in my face as I flipped through my music.

I flipped back to the home screen, staring at the photo of Me, Kody, My Mom, and our dog Romeo. A tear ran down my cheek, at the thought of my Mom.

It has been almost 8 months since she had been taken away from us, by that asshole we called a step dad.

"Thomas...?" Kody mumbled.

I quickly wiped the tears from my face. "Yes...?" Trying my hardest not to look up.

"It's okay, I know you miss her. I miss her too." I could feel his eyes were fixed on me.

"I'm-m fine..." I choked on my word's.

I knew they weren't true.

I would never be fine. Everyday I wake up to a constant reminder, that my whole world had been ripped out of my hand's.

The feeling of the car coming to a stop, shook me from my thoughts.

"You're here, do you want me to walk you in?" My brother asked softly.

I focused on the enormous highschool "N-no..I'll be fine." Slightly smiling I opened the car door.

Stepping into the cold air and snow.

Utah was colder than I thought it would be.

I grabbed my bag from the back seat. "I love you." I told my brother, then shut the door.

Greeted by two large doors and the sound of screaming, laughing, and chatter.

I took a deep breath "You got this, you can do this, I promise." I pulled on my sweater and took another breath.

Before pushing open the door.
