Reaya p.o.v. The drive to New Jersey was long, exaggerating and silent and I was beginning to get restless. We suddenly pulled up into a driveway to a big white house. I got out of the car and entered the house upon looking at the empty space before me, I just wanted to go back but I can't this is my new life now and sooner or later I'm gonna have to accept that. The guys from the moving van came in with the boxes one after the other on the other hand my mom was directing them where to place the boxes. Instead of getting in their way I went ahead upstairs to check out the bedrooms. Mom p.o.v. I know that moving is hard for my daughter, I wanted to start fresh, I want what's best for her and moving was the answer. I watched as the van sped down the road, I turned around to see boxes everywhere. A lot of work was needed to be done. I figured Reaya went upstairs to check out her bedroom. Suddenly the door bell rang. "Who could that be?" I thought probably neighbours. I approached the door and opened it- the new neighbours greeted me. A blonde woman who appeared to be in her mid 30's welcomed me with a warm smile and said "Hi I'm Melinda your neighbour welcome to the neighbourhood and this is is my husband Jim"- a slightly bald man. "Nice to meet you" said Jim smiling also. "Here I made you this warm delicious apple pie" said Melinda. "Why thank you" I replied. Reaya! Reaya! I shouted. "Coming mom!!!" I heard an answer from upstairs. I heard her footsteps coming hurriedly down the stairs, her face was clueless. "Come meet the neighbours darling" I told her. Reaya p.o.v. I was still exploring when my mom shouted from downstairs. I ran downstairs and saw a male and female at the door. "Come meet the neighbours darling" my mom said. Oh joy neighbours, I thought. This is going well so far, new life, new everything
