Seventeen Years Later...

Stop your crying baby it will be alright...

They told me that the end is near

We gotta get away from here. 

I wasn't a one direction fan or even a Harry Styles fan but I loved blaring this song through my headphones drowning out the whole world around me while I laid in my new bed, in my new home, in a new country, on a new damn continent. 

The walls were a pastel green trimmed with white crown molding. Large windows facing towards the backyard, huge with its everlasting green grass. The house itself was extensive and modern but was only considered a mansion here in Seoul. 

Yes, you heard me right. Seoul, South Korea.

What made my parents decide to abandon our amazing lives in Miami to pack up during the beginning of my senior year and move to the freaking other side of the world to South Korea  was due to a higher job promotion at their advertisement company.

 According to my parents, they have taken over the CFO position at their main headquarters in Seoul. Not to sound any way but I was proud of my parents for achieving so much...even though they could have left me with family members in Miami to finish up before college. 

But, no. They packed me up along with my sister Malia and bounced. 

Unlike me, my sister Malia was very much okay with this transition. She was always an easygoing person and found light in every situation. Malia is honestly a better version of me. 

"Psst Saniya! The chinese takeout is here" Malia peeped her head inside my room. She observed the room walking further inside. "I am loving this vibe. It's very mellow in here".

"Yeah because pink with excitement is underrated " I commented taking out my headphones. Malia rolled her eyes. "Okay nevermind. Your negative energy is bouncing off the walls".

"Well yeah because I don't want to be here. I'm surprised you're not upset like me".

Malia sighed. "Don't be upset over things you can't change. Besides you might actually like it here".

I shrugged. She had a point but I was still salty at our parents for throwing this at us last minute.

It was just a month ago I was sunbathing at Miami beach with friends thinking life couldn't possibly get any better.
