*A couple weeks later*
This is it. This is the last box of all my stuff, I can't believe I actually made it out of that hell hole they call highschool. I took one last look around my bedroom shedding a few tears in the process thinking of all the memories that I have shared with everyone in this exact room. Like that one time when my brother Max decided to put gum in my hair while I was sleeping and realised how noticeable it was and tried to cut it out with scissors, or the time when Myra and I were in middle school and my new neighbors moved in and my parents made us bring cookies over to them. Turns out that they had a boy our age that Myra instantly fell in love with at the sight of him. She oogled over him for the longest time while standing at the door, she literally threw the cookies at him and ran back to my house and locked herself in my bathroom. I believe that was one of times I've ever laughed so hard I could've gotten abbs.
I pulled my grey long sleeve shirt over my fist and brought it up to my face and managed a little laugh at the thought of the memory, that's when I realised I was crying.
"Evie, are you all-" I heard the voice which belonged to my mother. I spun around to find her looking at me. I just huffed and wiped my tears away.
"Honey are you okay" She asked, still standing at the door. I could tell she was trying to hold back some tears as well.
I managed a small smile and shook my head.
"Oh, honey come here" She cried walking up to me, bringing me into a hug. That's when I let out a breath of air I didn't even know I was holding and let it all out, all my tears I've held in from the thought of having to grow up, the break up with Hunter everything.
"Mom I d-don't wanna g-grow up, I don't w-wanna move out, I wanna s-start over. I-I wanna be
f-five again" I sobbed hopelessly into my moms perfectly ironed shirt but I didn't care. It was all true all this happening at once it was all so fast.
"Dear it's okay" She cooed trying to calm me down. I looked up at her wondering how she was always so strong.
"Mom I'm scared. W-What if I fail" I asked blowing my noes in the tissue she passed me.
"Everyone fails baby" She laughed.
"But I'll let you down"
"You'll never let me down sweetie" She pushed my hair back. "Now go get cleaned up Myra is down stairs waiting for you" She said kissing my forehead and walking out of my room.
I sighed and and got up to go to my bathroom, man I was a mess. I washed up a little re-applying only my mascara because I am to lazy to take the time on my eyeliner. I take one last look in my bathroom seeing my reflection smiling at how much I look like my mother my light washed skinny jeans rolled up just above my ankle along with my white ballet flats and my grey long-sleeve Hollister shirt. My mother was kind of upset with the look that I've chosen only because it isn't something you'd normally see me in. My mother brought me up in more of a conservative look as in long skirts, dresses, nice dress shoes, slacks you know that kind of stuff. The change is actually been just recent. I never really got to go play outside with my friends because I was stuck inside living and breathing my whole life for this one moment.
College.
"Evie lets go, it's a long drive and orientation starts in three days and I want to get settled in before school possessively steals my social life away once again" My best friend calls from downstairs. I rolled my eyes at her dramatic choice of words. Sometimes I wish I could have her carefree attitude or her spunkiness. I ran downstairs and hugged all my family we said our goodbyes. I started to tear up.
"Honey dear your smearing your makeup" My father said looking at me then hugging me ever so tightly.
"I love you guys. So much" I said to my family. I heard Myra honking her horn just to annoy me. I rolled my eyes.
"She never was the patient kind" My dad laughed. We all joined.
After a little more hugging, tears, memories and goodbyes I finally left and hopped into the big Yukon car with Myra and we were off, off to college.
"NYU here we come WHOOOO" My blonde haired friend yelled from the side. I laughed at how she was so excited, she's definitely gonna be the death of me. With that I fell asleep thinking of all the great times I'm going to share with my best friend in college.
