Alora pov
I woke up hearing the sound of my alarm and turned it off. I pulled my covers away and went to freshen myself up.It was only 6:30 and school starts at 8 but I had to go early because I have to walk, unlike Ellie who gets driven to school.
After doing my business, I took my school bag and went downstairs. Ellie was busy with her phone and mother was making food. Father was reading the paper.
I heard my stomach grumbling and i put my hand on it.
Oh yeah i didn't had dinner yesterday
I silently went to the kitchen and i could feel father's eyes on me. I looked down not making eye contact with my mother.
"Can I have breakfast please?" Hoping that I could get food as I was really hungry.
She stared at me for a few seconds and said "Go make yourself breakfast". She said in an annoyed tone but I was glad that she atleast allowed me to eat something.
I put my bag in the table and took bread and eggs from the shelf. I decided to make toast and scrambled eggs.
I stuffed myself with the food i made & went to the front door. Father was reading the paper still not looking or talking at me. Ellie looked at me and slightly snickered.Sigh
I started making way to school. I looked at my watch and it was 7:15am. I continued walking but stopped when I reached Mr Deans Bakery.
My eyes widen as I saw the front board of the bakery being removed and I saw the tables and other things from the bakery being taken into the big truck thing.I saw Mr Dean talking with a lady and she handed him some papers.
I ran to him and grabbed his arm. "Mr Dean.. w-whats all this?"
He turned around surprised. His eyes softened when he saw it was me. He looked at me in a sad and nervous expression. He bent down in my height and took my hands into his.
"Alora darling, Im sorry that i didn't tell you sooner about this but.." he took a breath and sighed.
"Im moving"
I was shocked and I froze at my place. Before I knew it tears filled my eyes.
"W-what..?" I felt a lump on my throat. It was hard for me too speak.
"I have to move away from this town. It is hard to make a living here and not only that I have debts to pay off. I hope you understand."
He became quiet, waiting for my reply. I fidgeted with my fingers and looked at his eyes slowly.
"Will I ever see you again?" He is the only person who loves me very much and see's me as a human.
"I will try too. Hopefully we'll meet each other again."
I just nodded my head in reply.
We stood there quietly. There was a slight cool breeze and it felt good on my tear dried face.
Without any thought, I hugged hum for the last time I think. He gave me a warm hug back too. He patted my head and got up.
"Go to school Alora, don't wait here anymore for me okay?"
I raised my head and gave him a small smile.
"See you again Mr Dean" I waved my hand at him and continued walking to school.
Sigh
And my only comfort is no more..
I soon reached my school and went to my class and took a seat.
