We drive through the country side. Site seeing My heart aches.I have cried to sleep each day since my mother died, she was my friend my grandmother my father my everything.The wonderful times we had together, I was greatful for them. Tears streamed down my face as I thought about her. My dad properly was having a hard time too and as I saw him he was trying his best to hold it in.
Hmm.. my father never expressed himself well. I guess its one of the reasons my mother separated herself from him. He shows up sometimes to see me but i wonder why he bothered. But now i have to move in with him i still haven't turned eighteen so..
"I have enrolled you into the school which is near to coffe shop in town,back at home"
I give a rest to the site seeing,wipe my tears and focuse on what dad is saying
"Do you remember"
I think back to the times i have i visted my dad in the summer and winter holidays
"Umm, is it the one with the name Collins High"
He responded with a nod
"You'll like it"
And thats where the conversation ended.As I said dad doesn't talk much
Seconds turn to minutes
Minutes turn to hours
Hours turns to more hours
"How much longer till we reach home"i asked dad
"About thirty minutes"dad generally replys
I try my best to hold back my groan.
"Seraphina"
"Dad don't use my full name, please its a little too much. Call me Sera"
"Its a beautiful name why ruin it"
"Dad please"
He doesn't say anything after that
*****
We arrive as its turning dark. The house is the same as I remember it was, light blue more and less like the sky, the old fashion door, the same old windows, the same drive way. Looks like nothing has changed since the last time I came here.
Dad stops the car. I step out taking everything in. Its been five summers since the last time I showed up here. I make my way to the trunk to get my things.
"I'll get them go and open the door, looks like its going to rain" I look up to the skys..the clouds seem like a dark mist,slowing spreading its wings
"The keys ar...."
I beat him to it"On top of the frame of the door"
"Right, now hurry up we don't want to be got in the rain". I get to the front door, reach the top and search for the key..I find it, open the door and go inside.
Its the same. Only the sette seems changed same old sitting room. I move towards the kitchen. The cabinets and cupborads.are the same colour.
I move to the second floor of the house. My room, I open the door, my bed its different. Its purple the table is bigger and walls are royale blue. My dad comes up the stairs
"I did a few things hope you like them" he carrys my bag and deposits them on my bed
"It looks lovely dad"he gave away his happiness with a smirk "Okay, start unpacking I'll see what we can eat for dinner" as he is about to leave...he stops n looks at me"Seraphina..Sera.. I know its hard ........for you to move... suddenly..... into this small..... town, its has nothing much to give but.." he pauses, figuring out what else to say
"I have missed you more than you now and i am gald that you are back"and then he leaves without saying anything else
I think on what he just said. Come to the think of it I also..have missed this place it used to be where most of my holidays were spent until.. mom had to move to a different palce for work.. so the distance between us increased
I start unpacking with my mind still running with a million of things.....
