why did everything have to change? life was great. until my parents broke the news.

it was my 16th birthday. i had just finished having my huge birthday party when my parents sat me down.

"how was the party, did you like it?" my mom asked.

i smiled brightly. "i loved it!"

"sit down, honey." my dad patted the spot next to him on the couch and i took it.

"what's up?" i asked.

my parents both sighed.

"i know it's your 16th birthday. and i know you love it here. but...we have to move, sweetie." my mom explained.

suddenly everything around me was spinning: no, this can't be happening.

"what, why?!" i yelled.

my dad gently grabbed my shoulder. "i got a new job, darling. i get promoted a lot more money. have you not seen the house getting more empty?"

i looked at him in disbelief. "you've already started packing?!" i hopped up from the couch and started to pace back and forth.

"miley! miles!" my mom called, settling me down.

i took a deep breath. "how much longer do we have?"

"a week..." my mom said barely above a whisper.

i sighed. no need to fight back. it was done.
i said, "i'll start packing." and ran upstairs to my room.
