"Mama, I can't just leave Abir." I admitted, telling her exactly why I couldn't do this. 
Not only would she be snatching me away from my family  and friends but she was taking me away from the person I'd loved for five going on six years. 
I couldn't just walk away from him. 
"Baby.." She trailed off, sighing deeply.
"I know you love Abir." She stood to her feet to stop packing for a moment and pulled me into her. 
"But I promise you, there will be other boys. Right now you have to do what's best for you and that's coming with your daddy and I to give you a better life." 
"Better life for who? You?!" I screamed out, becoming even more angry at her choice of words. 
As if my feelings were robotic and I could just turn them on and off for any and every person.
"My feelings just don't matter to y'all at all, huh?" I asked, crying harder than before now.
"Speak to your mother with some respect, Giselle." My father spat to me and I shook my head, watching as they stood there looking at me like some dumb teenager. 
This wasn't puppy love for me. I didn't spend 5 years building something, just to walk away from it for their dreams. 
I couldn't do it.
