Zoee
I packed my bags not knowing where the hell I was going all I knew is that I had to get the hell out of this grave yard. The death of my mom was it I was only staying here for her and now that she's gone I'm leaving for good. This place is an already dug gravesite and sooner rather than later were going to be right where they placed our tombstone. I had the little money she left me and the money I made so basically I was broke after I got my plane ticket and stuff. I left a note for anyone who came looking for me. I looked back at the house one more time and I never looked back nor did I want to.
I decided that it was only right that I went and told Jermaine that I was leaving. It was only right in my eyes I loved him in some way and I would just regret leaving without saying goodbye to him no matter how things were between us he was still my A1 and would always be that.
I knocked on the door and waited for someone to come. While I stood there I felt hurt in so many ways I couldn't explain I was hurt by deaths and disappointment and the fact that it came down to this. "Zoee are you okay?"
"I'm leaving and I just wanted to come and say goodbye" I tried to speak fast so he couldn't hear that my voice was beginning to crack.
"Where are you going"
I shrugged "Don't know Atlanta maybe New York haven't decided yet"
"Your mom just died you need to stay put and think things through your just acting on mixed emotions Zoee"
I shook my head "No I've thought about this and I decided that I needed to go this may be my only chance of getting out and I'm not passing it up"
"Well I guess that this is goodbye.."
"Yeah maybe see you later never know"
Jermaine bent down and kissed me for what might be the last time in maybe forever. I felt the sadness and a tear slid down my face. I pulled away and turned around and walked away leaving him standing there. I wanted him to follow me or even try to stop me from going again even though I would tell him I couldn't stay but he didn't. He just let me walk away.
When I walked outside my cab was waiting for me. I got in and as I did I looked back to see if he had came and there was nothing and as we drove away I wondered if I was making a mistake.

I arrived at the airport and it was full with people. I had never been on a airplane but there was a time for everything. I looked up at the board and saw which planes were leaving or have left and the ones that had arrived and were soon to come. I decided that I was going to the ATL. I figured I had a better chance of making my dreams of becoming a dancer there.
"Hi how may I help you" The lady at the counter said with a smile
"Can I get a one way ticket to Atlanta"
She nodded and stated tying on the computer "Okay here you go"
I handed her the money and she gave me the ticket "Thank you"
Jermaine
I sat there trying to wrap all of this around my brain. She just up and decided to go and wasn't even sure where the hell she was going. I sat and thought about the idea of me going too but I also saw no reason in me going really. Yeah I've always talked about leaving but leaving for what. If I left and things didn't go the way I planned I was just going to end up doing the same thing Im doing here just in a foreign place. But I also wanted to go because there was nothing left here for me and no one but my grandma. So I decided to go talk to her about the idea of leaving.
"Grandma I have something I want to talk about"
She looked up from her cross word "Yes"
"I'm thinking about leaving"
"And to where are you leaving to son"
That was a good question "I don't know Atlanta maybe New York"
"You aren't chasing that girl are ya"
"No and yes. I gotta get out of this hell hole grandma"
"I understand. If you feel like you should go then go I'll be fine here I'm to old to leave now" She smiled and placed her hand on top of mine " I know your daddy would've wanted you to go. So go"
I kissed her on the cheek and stood up he called me a cab to the airport and pray that I could catch Zoee before she left.
When I got to the air port I looked up at the board and saw that one of the flights had already left so my only choice was to fly to the second choice and hope that I would find her on the plane or at least at the air port when we landed.
Ima end Born Sinner here with kind of a cliff hanger type thing. I'm going to write a sequel but I don't know when I'll do that prolly not to soon cause I gotta go to summer school so maybe I'll start it and then give a date to when I'll publish it or something like that. I don't know. This one was kind of messy so Ima plan the sequel a little more cause that's kind of the reason I'm ending this one. But Zoee and Jermaine will be back.! lol
