Last summer

As I sit here reading my book, I can hear my parents downstairs screaming at one another Two months ago my mum found my dad with another woman of course they have been trying to work it out for me. But I can tell that it isn't working I wish my mother would just leave him.

It isn't that I don't love my father , it's just since it happened I feel bad for my mum the love of her life was unfaithful to her I wish I could understand her pain but I can't because I've never been In love myself. I've had boyfriends but it wasn't love just... I'm not sure I thought it was love

The thoughts all go away when my door burst open and my mum comes in swollen puffy eyes and redness on her cheeks and nose. Most likely from crying.

Evelyn please pack your stuff we're leaving, Please do it quickly dear, come downstairs when your done. She says and then closes my door to head to her to to pack I think..

Leaving.. We're leaving..Where to? Hopefully to stay in a hotel close by.

I start to pack everything just as she says I'm trying to quickly. I run over to my closet and pull out both of my suitcases. I set them on my bed and open them. I then start to pack everything

A hour and a half

I head downstairs to see my dad holding onto my mum begging her not to go. I look over to my mum and she has a blank face her eyes are filled with anger and sadness.

I look by the door and see that my mom has four suitcases I'm sure  two of them are for my brother James. Crap James I rush up the stairs to my Ten year old brother sitting against his bed his head in his hands and his knees pulled up into his chest. I sit next to him and put my arm around him pulling him close.

His blue red puffy eyes look up to me, it pains me to see my little brother this upset he knows mum and dad have been arguing for a while now.

Why do we have to leave I don't want to leave home mum says we're not coming back. He says his voice cracks at the end

I'm going to try my best to calm him down without showing I'm upset...Wait not coming back? I push the thought to the back of my head for now and clear my throat.

Look James mum and dad need some time away from one another just for a little while okay it's going to be okay. I say In one breathe

He sniffles and hugs me tight before nodding his head. I let go of our small little embrace and stand up. I stretch my hand out to his, he accepts it and we walk downstairs together.

My mum looks up and notices us and quickly walks over to us taking James hand and walking him towards the door. My dad then reaches for James pulling him into a tight embrace it last for a minute before my mum pulls James away from him.

I walk towards the door for my farther to try and pull me into a embrace but I am quick to push him away and nod my head.

No please don't , if you can't respect one woman in your life what makes you think you can respect another one . I say with venom laced in my voice and turn away from him

I get into the passenger seat and put my headphones in my ear to tune everything out I lean my head against the window watching as we pass up everything.

I can feel that my eyelids are heavy I let out a sigh  and close my eyes letting darkness take over. Before I know it I'm in a deep slumber.

Three Hours Later

Honey open your eyes quick. I hear my mum say as she gently shakes my shoulder

I open my eyes and look around it bright out and I see my mother point to a sign that says....

Welcome to The United Kingdom, Manchester

I once lived in Bath UK that's 3 hours away from Manchester..

Honey I just want to say I'm sorry, I know it's sudden that we moved and you have to go to a new high school I just need you to help me I - I cut her off before she can finish he sentence

Mum it's fine I understand as much as I hate moving schools it's okay We can get through this. I say with a forced smile

And with her free hand she graps mines and gives it a tight squeeze and she smiles at me.

40 minutes later

We finally arrive at our new home it's gorgeous not as big as our old house but it's great it's small not to big. My mum comes to pull into the driveway.

We all get out of the car and walk towards the house my mum bends down and gets a Key from underneath the welcome mat. A small chuckle escapes my lips

She opens and unlocks the door for us to step inside I look around in awe of everything the living are is a cream color as I walk around I find a mall kitchen that matches the livening area color.

The counter tops are made of white sparkly marble the floor is white with a square pattern my hand grazes across everything. It's so gorgeous, as I get lost in my own thought I hear my mum say.

Evelyn dear your room is upstairs the last one to the left. She smiles and points towards the stairs

I quickly pace past her and up the stairs heading to where she said I get to the door and take a deep breath And gently turn the knob. My jaw drops as I stare at my pink and grey room with a little rose gold here and there.

In the corner of the room I see a full body mirror against the wall I turn towards the bed it's pink with a sequence in the cover making it pop upwards there is a small circle rug in front of my bed there are fairy lights hanging from the curtains. A smile is plastered onto my face as I look around my new room.

Maybe this won't be to hard to move on away from what happened...I hope
