Good bye

It was moving day, the second saddest day of my life. The first...we'll get to that later.

All of my friends came to say good bye, except for Lucas. I saw Alex, Lucas's best friend. "Have a safe trip Summer, I hope to see you soon." He said. "Thanks Alex, um, do you where Lucas is?" I said, hoping he would show up. "Sry man, but he left for Toronto two days ago. He didn't come by to say bye?" He said confused. "Oh, I wasnt shocked, well we kind of had a fight, but it's no big deal. Thanks for coming!" It was a big deal I though to myself.

Emily, Tristan and I managed to say our good byes through sobs. It was the hardest thing to do, say good bye to the people I grew up with.

I was alone at home, all my friends had gone home and my mom was at work trying to explain to her boss why we were moving to Toronto.

*Ding!* It was a text from my mom.
"I'm so sorry sweetheart, but i can come with you to Toronto, you will have to fly there bye your self at 9am. The contract I signed for my work says I have to stay here for at least one more year. I'm so sorry honey, but don't worry, I found a family in Toronto that is willing to take care of you for the first year of school until I can can quit my job here and find a new one in Toronto. I'll send you the info."

I cant believe it, my mom is leaving me with a bunch of strangers in a house in Toronto! She has to be insane!!! But she wasn't.

*Ding!* I received an other text from my child abandoning mother. It gave me all the information about the family. The mother and father's names were Lisa and Francis. They had...FOUR BOYS!!? WHAT!!? Oh no, ohhhh nooooo! I've never lived with boy before and from what I've heard from friends are that boy are the absolute worse.

From their family pictures my mom sent me, they seemed pretty decent. The family of six were on a beautiful beach. The youngest was a 6 year old named Benjamin, the second was around a 9 year old named Cameron, the third was a 12 year old named Kenneth and last was a 14 year old named Tommy.  They were the Hollanders family.

Huh, Tommy's my age and he's not that bad looking. Pretty cute actually. Nice brown hair with brown eyes and a perfect white smile. They also have a dog. Awwww, how cute.

When my mom got home at around 5, we had an early supper and headed to the airport. All my stuff had already arrived at the Hollanders house. As we got to the airport, my mom kissed me good bye and I got on the plane. All I had with me was a small bag with my wallet, some snacks, a book that the movers left behind from my room, my phone and my charger.

As I got on the plane I sat by the window and watched the plane take off. I feel asleep from about an hour and I was woken up by a flight attendant. "Sweety, the plane is landing in approximately 5 minutes." She said in a high pitched tone and with a big smile on her face. "Oh, um, thank you." I said rubbing my eyes.

I was glad I didn't wear any makeup today. I learned my lesson my last time that when you wear makeup for an 8 hours flight and you fall asleep, you wake up with your mascara smudged under your eyes, mascara clumps on you cheeks, lips stick down your chin and the rest of it is on the airplane seat. The flight attendant wasn't happy.

We landed and as I got off the plane I saw a man in black holding a sign with my name "Summer Gilmore". The man didn't look like the Francis, their father. "Hi, you must be Summer, Summer Gilmore. I'm William, the Hollanders personal driver." Said the man in as he walk us to their... LIMOUSINE!!!! "WOAH! Is this the Hollanders!!?" I said in shock "Yes" he said smiling as he opened the door.

I thought I my self, this is going to be the best year ever!!! I sent pics of the link to my mom and she sent me pics of this guy at her work picking his nose, EWW! She was jealous.

"We have to make a quick stop to go pick up Tommy from his dance lessons." Said William. "Cool." A guy that can dance, I though in my head, that's even better!
