CHAPTER ONE

I managed to get a flight to Indiana and I have to be at the airport in like an hour. I only got about a few hours of sleep due to crying, man this sucks. I was in the kitchen when my bestie Laurie came in...

"Hey what's up, why so gloom lady?"

"Oh hey Laurie...ummmm we are going to Indiana today so go pack a light bag for like 2 or 3 days and then I will explain, please."

She didn't even ask she just went and did as I said which is normal, oh and by the way did I mention that Laurie is not only my bestie but she is my cousin. About 15 minutes later Laurie came back with June and Britt.

"So gloomy what's going and why the all of a sudden trip back home?..."Laurie asked.

"Laurie mom and dad got in a car accident on Wednesday...we need to go and get Toby, which also means that when we get back I will have to get my own place for Toby's sake. Which I'm going to need your moms help Britt, can you call her and see if there is a reasonable two bedroom apartment close to you guys for Toby and I...I can't have him leaving here with all of us there's just no room..."

"Yeah sure, I'm really sorry Mia, if there is anything else please let me know" Brittany replied.

"Oh yeah Laurie and I will need a lift to the airport and then we will need to be picked up." I chipped in.

"No problem I will give y'all a lift and pick y'all up, I'm really sorry" June offered...

"Thanks June and it's not your fault...lets head out."

At the airport, Laurie did not say one word since I told them what happened. I guess she was still in shock. Once we boarded I asked if she was ok and she just nodded and asked how I was keeping it together. I just simply said that I needed to for Toby's sake. Soon after that I fell asleep.

MIA'S DREAM

I was sitting there in my parents' house with mom, dad, and Toby, we were all laughing about something Toby did. I was having the time of my life..I couldn't be happier, the phone call I received was a joke my parents were still alive a well.

I sat there and laughed when all of a sudden some strange figure showed up and said that it was almost time and that my parents must say what they wanted to now or they won't ever get the chance.

I stared blankly and then asked what's going on.

"Well deer we had to come and tell you that we love you and Toby so much and we are sorry we won't be there for you both, but you're going to be ok, just take care of Toby...you will meet someone special but don't let it slip right passed you because you deserve to be happy. We know this has to be hard on you but we know you can do it. Laurie, June, and Brittany are there to help. You're not alone although you may feel that way. Just please take care of yourself and Toby. We love you but our time is up..." Both my parents said together and with that they disappeared.

Mom! Mom!, Daddy! Dad...Mom Dad...? Come on this isn't funny...come back...

END OF DREAM

"Mia...Mia..." shake... "Mia wake up"...shake... "Mia...we are here"...shake.

"What!!!! Why are you shaking me?"

" we are here Mia"

As soon as we got to Mrs. Conrad's, Toby ran up to me crying his little heart out in turn made me break down while Laurie talked to the Conrad's about the funeral times. I do not want to get into all the funeral details, it's just too sad.

"Mia, mommy and daddy are gone...does that mean you're my new mommy?"

"Toby-bear I'm not going to replace mom and dad but I will be there for you like they were. They loved you so much and I love you so much." I explained.

"I wuv you too...but why do we have to move...I wuv it here" Toby cooed.

"Well Toby-bear, my job is in New York and right now that's where I live...you will love it there too...I promise...Are you hungry...I know I am!" I asked.

"Yes I could eat a hippo...!" Toby replied

The next morning the funeral came and went fast. We are now at my parents' packing up must of Toby's stuff. The Conrad family will ship off the rest of his stuff when I find another apartment for Toby and I. After the last bag, we headed for the airport. Toby seemed to be doing good, he was starting to get excited to see the big city considering that he has only seen the country side of things. This will be very different for the little guy. As we were getting our bags, June showed up to get us.

"Hey! is this everything?" June asked.

"No we are waiting for Toby's car seat and then that will be all..." Laurie answered.

"Well Brittany has good news for you she told me not to tell you, so don't ask because that's all your getting!" June said with a smile.

"That's not fair". I whined.

"Brittany! Brittany!..Britt!" Laurie and I yelled!

"Yeah, what's with all the yelling" Britt asked.

" June said you had some good news for me? What is it?" I asked excitedly.

"My mom got you and Toby-bear an apartment, I have the keys if you wanna go see it?" She spat out.

"Toby you wanna go see our new place and get something to eat?" I asked.

"Yes! I could eat a hippo!" Toby cooed!
