Broken -Daniel Seavey

One

~Sophia's POV...~

I stood in the airport over-thinking my life choices. Maybe I made the wrong choice when I decided to leave my home and family behind for a college all the way in LA.

What if this was the wrong choice? Sure, I knew I wanted to go to a college that would help me with my music career, but why couldn't I go to one closer to home?

A pang of pain hits my heart when I realize I won't be coming home every night to see my brother and mother. I would miss them both dearly, especially Tyler. The kid was always there to make you smile. It felt like there was never a moment where he didn't make me laugh.

I wouldn't be surprised if he grew up and decided he wanted to be a comedian. He has the talent and jokes for it.

I wipe a stray tear off my face. No. I had to be strong for my family. I told myself this is what I want, now I would follow through. I have prove to my mother that I can be strong in the real world.

I clear my throat and turn to face my little brother, Tyler who was currently enjoying running around the long row of grey plastic chairs.

A small smile makes its way onto my face. I'd miss him the most. It was going to stink not being able to watch him grow for the next few years, but we'd always have holidays right? "Hey, Tyler." Tyler freezes in place and turns around to look at me probably afraid I'd scold him for running around in public. "You're going to Skype or FaceTime me every week, right?" I ask wanting to hear those words come out of his mouth one last time. 

Tyler runs over to me and tackles my legs in a hug. "Of course Sophie." He says offering me a small smile. I smile back down at him.

"Good," I whisper. My mother turns to me and pulls us into a group hug.

"Oh look at you now. My baby! All grown up." My mother says a few tears leaving her eyes. I glance around the airport and notice all the unwanted attention we were attracting.

"Mom you're embarrassing me." I mumble shooting an aggravated look my mother's way. She waves it off before grabbing a tissue and blowing her nose. I couldn't say I blame her. If it was Tyler I'd be reacting the same way she was.

"Flight 257 gates opening now." The intercom lady's voice blared through the speakers. This was it. There was no turning back now. 

"Bye guys, I love you." I tell my family giving them both one last hug before walking towards the gate. I hand my ticket to the lady, who scans it before nodding me forward. I walk through the gate and let out a big puff of air I hadn't even realized I was holding in. 

I turn back and see my mother already rushing my brother towards the front of the airport. Part of me wanted to run back to her arms and be mommy's little girl forever, but I had to man--I mean--woman up someday, and that day is today. 

I take a step from the busy airport into the carpeted tunnel. A step into my new life. Leaving my home, my past and my life behind. A step in a new direction. To a new life, new friends, and new city.

Boy, was it harder than expected.
