      "Kelli-" I slammed the door before my mom could finish and ran down the driveway. "WHY?!?" I shouted. Why? How? Will it even make a difference if I get those answered? I headed down a narrow path filled with trees and flowers that were covered in snow. It's been four years since I've moved here in Virginia. Around here mostly everyone knows everyone and well me I prefer to stay in the background. If people come up to me and try to make friends with me I'm fine with that. Anyone who tries to bully me I don't take it. I'll stand up for myself and if anything, if comes fighting, I'm not one to walk away. I made a right turn to go to the park. It's freezing,but I was walking for so long and I wasn't feeling so good about what just happened, sitting down on an ice cold bench seemed to be the highlight of my day.

              Sitting there I felt numb."God.. what am I going to do?" I told myself. My mom just doesn't understand how difficult this is going to be for herself. And she didn't even tell me about this until now! "Ugh. I'm going to have to apologize to her." I said sadly. So what if she wants to go live with her boyfriend and so what if the house will be empty with just me there? I guess there will be less arguments between us and plus she'll be happy. I laid my face into my cold,bare hands. It soothed the anger on my face. My thoughts? She's crazy. My feelings towards this? I want her to be happy and no matter what I'll help her when things go wrong.

         As I laid my head back whipping my black curls out of my face, I heard something or someone. I looked across the park and saw a tan, skinny guy with long brown hair playing guitar and singing. Snowflakes were falling all around him slowly and gently. It was like one of those cliche romantic movie scenes.The one bundle of lyrics I could understand from this distance was,"Darling you'll be okay!" I stared for a moment in awe then smiled."Okay." I announced. I got myself up and started walking home. I wonder who that was.
