in my story I'm going to write as if I'm Nate, writing to his mother. Nate grew up a hard life, a father who constantly drank and a mom who tried her best to give him the world. He leaves home at age 13, to go to a fancy school a thousand miles away. He got in on a full scholarship, all his accommodations, food, and books for 5 years of pre law school. The one thing his scholarship didn't provide? plane tickets for him to go see his family back home. Nate constantly works, and writes to his mom, while he's away at school he meets Cora at only age thirteen, he's now 16. Nate & Cora have been together for 3 years, but when new girl Ari comes into town, Nate begins to question his feelings for both Cora & Ari.
