It's been six years since the 'incident' happened. I just moved away from Dalton and him. I couldn't stand to look him in the face again and Dalton just made me want to throw up. I know it's wrong to feel that way about my best friend, but every time I see D, I see his shocked and depressed face. And it hurts so much. So I finally had the guts to ask my mom to move us to a new place. And I let her choose. She made a deal with me. She wouldn't question me if she got to choose the location. I don't care where we move to as long as we move away.

Once we get off the plane, I look around. I still have no idea where she moved us to. I looked at my little sister. She's finally not crying after I convinced her that this would be a fun new start. Keke is scared that she gonna get made fun of cuz we're black, just like at our old school. Hopefully mom found a black 'hood. I hate seeing Keke crying. It hurts me a lot.

"So, ma! Where did you move us to?" I ask, curiously. "California, baby. Imma buy you girls some suits. Ally, you gonna look hot. Just like ya momma. Imma find me some hot guy at the beach and fall hopelessly in love with him" she giggles like a maniac. "Plus, you can too" ma winks at me while I roll my eyes.

We arrive at our new home, it's a beautiful two story home. It's not tiny, but it's not big either. Better than our old house. I walk in, holding Keke's hand and holding my backpack and purse in my other hand. We look around downstairs first. There's a kitchen to the left, that leads to a little room that we will soon call "Ma's Room," i.e it's the laundry room. To our right is a medium sized family room. It has a couch, an entertainment stand (tv, game systems, movies, etc). Walking straight past the stairs is a bedroom, a bathroom, and the back door. This room is obviously ma's. She hates upstairs rooms. When you go up the stairs, there is three rooms. There is a bathroom between two of them, and a bathroom connecting to the bigger room. Obviously my room. I tell Keke that these two rooms will be for her. One is her play room, and the other is her bedroom. She was excited to have her own room.

I walk into my room and set my bag on the desk on the far side of the room. This room needs a major make over. And so do I.

I walk downstairs, asking mom if I can go shopping for shit for my room and new clothes. She hands me some money and tells me to be safe and that she is gon' put my boxes in my room. "Thanks ma. Keep a close eye on Keke. I'll be safe, like always. I love you" "I love you too, Al." She hugs me and kisses my cheek.

This is gonna be fun!
