Your home is taken away from you. Nothing to do. Sadness is your only emotion.

I walk into the headmaster's office. I did not want to go. My farm, my family. The city was not my ideal future however it was for my family. I even called mum and she said yes. NOT FAIR. I told the headmaster I was leaving and I wanted my grades for this year. He said no but congratulated me for my ''perilous'' adventure.

At home I packed my bag, I will miss the country. The fresh aromas, animals with unique sounds, Aunt Alice's bakery and , I never thought I'd say this, Fred. I mean I he is very exasperating and imprudent but sometimes he can be nice. I see the Ute parked up infront of the sheep, far north of the farm. Liam comes running into my room. DOESN'T HE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PRIVACY! Little brothers, so hard to train. Liam asks what I am doing but I yell at him to get out. I'm 16 and he is 11. Mum says I should not be mad at him. She is the one telling me to get a boyfriend and Liam always tells them embarrassing stuff like my score in sports tests ( I am not the best sports girl). I pack my diary, my favorite clothes, my pens and pencils, old photos of me when I was a baby and my iPad in my backpack, which I can access during the drive and all my other stuff in my three trunks. I don't know who would run the farm after we leave. Dad says Uncle Mike might take our farm as his own but I can't be sure. I hear a knock on my scarlet door. Mum walks in asking me if I have packed up everything. I take a brief look around. My blue walls are bare along with the wooden floor. I said yes and started to transport my stuff on a large wagon for the luggage. We are walking to sheep farm and with all that stuff, we will need some horses and a wagon for it. Dad ties the horses up onto the wagon and plans the agenda. I asked if I could sit in the wagon while he rides the horses. He says yes so I jump into the wagon, with the words "THE JAMES FAMILY "on it, and dad started to move the horses. I don't like friends, like said before, but mum suggests I make one to help me around the place.I will never need a friend so she should not worry. I hop into the ute with my backpack by my side. It will be a ''perilous'' adventure.
