Shawn~~

     After I got the food ready, premade food from target, me and Michael sat down, just like an average American family minus a mom.

     "How's school?" Dad asked. He only cares about one thing:school. To be honest I'm ok but I know I have been failing some of my classes, and it is definitely not good.

     "Fine." I said as I stuffed the mashed potatoes into my mouth.

     "Do you know I got your last report card with me right now." Dad said, dangerously quiet. I hate it when he does that. It made me want to hold my breath because it really scares me.

     "You are not doing good in school son!" He stood up angrily and slapped the report card on the table. I am still dazed about how he actually got his hands on my report card, since I deliberately hid it in a secret place.

     "Sorry dad, I promise I will do better this year." I said sincerely. Actually, I don't really care about my grades. It might help you get into a good university, but it will not actually help you in life. That is my theory.

     "I've been thinking. If your grades continues to drop like that, I think it will be better for all of us-all of us to have a new start in Canada. I can start my business again since it is failing, and Michael-" he looks at his older son "can study in a community college and Shawn can continue high school there. Canada's high school is better than US high school, so there aren't as many distractions as US high schools."

     I stared at the blank wall behind me. What about Camila? Why do I even think about her right now? Why do I even care about her?

     "So when do you plan to go there?" Michael asked. He looked disgusted by my dad's decision.

    "around this year's Christmas." My dad said casually. My jaw dropped. When did he even decided to go to Canada? If he want to go to Canada then he would've planned it a long time ago.

I need to think for a moment. No, actually, I need to breathe.

"Excuse me." I said and I walked into the bathroom.i leaned against the wall and one hand against my chest. I hate changing things, and changing places was one of the things I hated the most. My phones suddenly vibrates, which was a very unusual thing, so I picked it up and looked at it.
One new text message
Camila: hey wats up :)

I smiled. She is literally lighting up the bathroom-no, lighting up my LIFE. I like how my life just changed so quickly, how I suddenly met her.

I was so excited that I typed in 'i love u' but I restrained myself and typed in 'nothin' instead.

C: u told me u arent gonna leave two kids and one extremely hyper one alone with me😕

S: sorry, family issues that can't be done😞

C: it's ok. Are you coming back to my house to stay tonight? 🙃

S: I don't know. I will text you about that asap.

C: k. Btw we r going to meet lele on Tuesday, so I hope you would be there with me, since you are going to go on a road trip with me sofi lele and juanpa.

S: wait what? Road trip?

C: I didn't tell u?

S: no...

C:I will tell you when you come back :)

S: k bye

C:byeeeeee

What road trip? I think she told me about that before, right before I left for my home right? I think so. I locked my screen and began smiling at myself. There is no way I could go back tonight but I will go back right after my dad left home. I will text Camila later.
