" drewy .. do you really have to leave me ? What would I do without you!  Everyone would start making fun of me again..  I need you drewy..  " I sniffed . Once school starts again, those kids would laugh and push me calling me names just because im fat and ugly, only andrew was nice to me ,  I still remember him coming up to me and smiled introducing himself and wanting to be my friend because he found me cute. 

" I'll come back for you soon Keira,  I promise you.  Just Wait for me okay?  Once im all grown up , the first thing I'll do is come back for you.  I'm really sorry,  but daddy had found a good job that pays really well in america..  so he decided that our whole family move with him . we'll meet again soon " he whispered in my ears.  Even at that age,  I felt something in my stomach,  something weird even when He's beside me.

" Of course I'll Wait for you drew , you're all I ever wanted even After all those years.  I still think about you every night before I fall sleep and every Morning when I wake up.  I Hope you'll  come back soon.  Have you forgotten me?  After you left , I had stopped eating so much sweets and chocolates,  I started keeping fit and over the past years,  I became skinner than I was before,  I changed . I'm no longer the fat and ugly girl who couldn't defend herself,  I became much better.  I just Hope you're here to see how much I've changed drew "  I exhaled deeply , well I guess i better prepare  for school now wouldn't wanna be late and get sent to the principal office for the 20th time again. 

I went to the bathroom and stripped down all my clothes and decided to wash my hair since I still had an hour left before school,  once I was done,  I went to my walk in wardrobe ( YES I HAD A FREAKING WALK IN WARDROBE AFTER MY DAD HAD GOT PROMOTED AND WE HAD MOVED TO A NEARBY BIGGER HOME 2 BLOCKS AWAY FROM MY OLD HOUSE ) and picked out a simple dark faded denim skinny jeans and a plain hoodie before moving on to my make up and hair . I had put on only eyeliner and pink blush for school as I didn't want to burn my face near the heater like the plastics who put on so much make up ( Hah get my joke ? ) .

After getting ready,  I went down to greet my dad. Only Me and my dad had moved 4 years After drew left as my mom had passed away due to cancer..  I really missed her,  the way she would always wipe away my tears when I come home from school because the bullying hadn't stop and drew wasn't there to protect me .

" Morning Daddy ! Slept well last night?  " I smiled widely knowing that at least I still had my dad with me and to be honest,  Im really a daddy's girl. 

" Morning baby girl, yes I had a good sleep and just to remind you, i'll be away on a business trip for 3 days,  I'll be back on Wednesday,  while I'm gone,  don't even think of throwing a party or even coming home drunk okay?  You're 16 and your birthday is coming in a few months time,  wouldn't want you to be caught for illegal drinking even though I allow you but only if you promise not to get drunk at all.  Take care okay,  now that I only have you..  Oh how I wished drew's family was still living beside us,  that way I could rest my mind a little knowing that There's someone to take care of my girl.  " Dad groaned .

" okay okay daddy,  I got it . I wished drew was here too. I'll miss you dad,  come home soon,  have a safe trip and Im just gonna leave home now so I wont be late,  bye!  Love you " I said while picking up my bag and grabbing my keys and walking over to my car. 

" love you too darling!  Take care! Call me if anything happens ! " dad shouted by the door. 

High school was just a few blocks away but being the lazy person I am,  I always drive to school . Upon Reaching the school, I stepped out of my car and saw my group of friends walking over to me . " WHATS UP BABE !? " daniella or dani for short form screamed at the top of her lungs from afar causing my other friends to give her the death looks . " Oh shut up and walk over there before greeting keir will you?!  " mason folded his arms, not before  rolled his eyes at her.  " I agree.  You need to stop doing that everyday dan! You'll scare everyone away from you , even the guys!  " Holly  scolded.
