Dear Mia,

I was gone for over a year.

You knew my Dad's job meant we would move around a lot.

You said you understood.

When he decided to stay in California for good,

I got stuck there.

So I waited.

I waited for my birthday,

My eighteenth,

Freedom.

So that I could come back.

But now I'm wondering,

If there was anything left to come back to.
