Hi everyone my name is Lola Stevens. I am 17 years old. I am a cheerleader and a nerd(sort of). Well, it's the end of the year, you know what that means, time to move. I really wish that one of the time I will be able to stay in one place longer than a year. I keep on begging my parents to stay, but they just keep on saying no. I feel like they don't even listen to me. I feel invisible. They look at the science experiments more than they look at me. Oh yeah, did I forget to tell you that? Well, apparently both of my parents are scientists. People at school don't get it. They think that it is so amazing to have a scientist as parents. I feel like the experiment.
I love my family, but sometimes they don't even feel like family. They talk to me like I understand every little thing. I wander into the lab and look around. I accidentally bump into some green looking slime and I made a wish. I said, "I wish that We could stay here for at least another year." I start to think this is crazy wishes don't come true.
I go upstairs and tell mom and dad that, " I was walking around and I bumped into something." They ask me, "What colour was it?" I tell them, "Green." They looked at each other for a second, then they ran downstairs as fast as they could.
When I got down there, I told them, " I made a wish, but it was stupid." They asked me, "Why would you make a wish, and what was it?" I told them, "Well the wish was I wish we could stay here another year, but I don't exactly know why I even thought it was going to happen." We start cleaning up and my mom got cut by glass. I went upstairs to get a band-aid. On my way down the stairs, I hit my head. When I was able to open my eyes everything looked normal, but something felt different.
I looked around the house for some answers to what happened and when I went to where the lab was it was a room. I started thinking this is crazy, this can't be happening. This can't be real. All of a sudden I heard the door open, I got scared because I don't know what happened or where am I. The door closed I went to the wall to find out who it was. It was just dad, I started thinking where is mom at.
Dad came up to me and said, "Pumpkin are you okay?" I told him, "No and where is mom?" Dad started to cry and said, "You don't remember. She died yesterday by a drunk driver." I was like no he is just joking with me. I was with her today and so was he. We were cleaning up glass. I told dad, "I'm going to bed." He said, "Okay, goodnight. Don't forget tomorrow is the funeral. Are you going to speak?" I told him, "Yes, but if I start to cry I want you to get me okay."
