^^^ Katerinas Red Ford Mustang
2 years ago on this day I lost my parents. Two years ago I lost a part of myself that I don't think I will ever get back.
I had a very hard time getting through the death of my beloved parents.
Many sleepless nights.
Nights where I would sleep but all I would see in my dreams were replays of the night the men in black killed them.
Today is my eighteenth birthday. I am officially allowed to live by myself.
Right now I'm living with my auntie. She doesn't have a husband or kids but she's amazing. She lets me do whatever I want as well.
My alarm goes off and I slam my hand against the alarm to turn it off. I yawn and contemplate getting out of bed.
I guess I could sleep for another five minutes
"Get up, get up" my auntie says as she ushers me out of bed.
"Ughhhh, why it's my birthday?" I moan as I slide my feet out of the bed.
"Anddd you have school so get up" she then walks out of the room satisfied with getting me up.
It may be my birthday but it is also the day that my parents died.
I get up and go to the kitchen for breakfast.
"Finally your up" she exclaims shoving me two eggs on toast. I start to pick at my food.
"Yea I wish I wasn't"
"Yea well I've got work and you've got school"
"Well can't I just stay home?"
"No"
"Please?"
"No"
"Ughhhh"
"Now remember you are having a party tonight so come straight home"
"Yeah, yeah" I say as I get up and rinse my plate out.
I then walk to my room and head straight for my closet.
I decide to wear my faded grey ripped jeans and converse with a cropped singlet top in light pink.
I then brush my hair and keep it down brush my teeth and do my makeup.
I put my usual makeup on lipgloss winged eyeliner and mascara.
Once I'm finished I grab my bag and shout 'goodbye' to Tam my Aunty and then then walk out the house.
Out the front of the house stands a red Ford Mustang.
"Aunty Tam what's this doing here?" I shout hoping she could hear me. I feel someone staring at me and turn around. Tan stands with a big smirk on her face and has keys in her hand.
"Happy birthday gorgeous!" She exclaims while running up to me and enveloping me in a big hug. She then hands the keys to me.
"Why did you give me the keys?" I say utterly confused.
"The car is from me to you, your birthday present!" She says and I'm so worried she's lying.
