How do I say this?

Prologue.

Emily Covey's POV

When my father left, I felt like my world had been turned upside down. I was so young, and I didn't understand why he had to go.

I remember crying myself to sleep, wondering if he still loved me, if he would ever come back. As I got older, I learned more about what had happened, about the reasons why he had left. But even though I understood why he had left, it still hurt.

It hurt to know that he had chosen to leave, that he had chosen to be apart from me and my family. And as I looked back on my childhood, I realized that his absence had left a mark on me, a wound that never quite healed. I struggled with trust, with abandonment issues, with a sense of unworthiness.

As I looked around the room, my heart raced with anticipation. I knew that this was a moment that could change everything, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Would I be able to handle what was about to happen? Would I be able to stay true to myself in the face of adversity?

As the seconds ticked by, I took a deep breath and tried to focus on the task at hand. I knew that I had to be brave, even if it meant going against the norm. With a sense of determination, I took my first step forward, ready to face whatever lay ahead.

The sun beat down on my face as I trudged through the desert, my feet sinking into the hot sand with every step. I was tired, hungry, and thirsty, but I knew that I couldn't give up. I had a mission to complete, and nothing was going to stop me.

As I walked, I couldn't help but think about everything that had brought me to this point. The sacrifices I had made, the people I had left behind, the dangers I had faced. But I knew that it was all worth it, if it meant achieving my goal. With each passing moment, I felt my strength and resolve grow, until finally, I saw it. The object of my quest, glimmering in the distance like a mirage. With a sense of triumph, I quickened my pace, eager to claim my prize. And as I drew closer, I knew that I had succeeded, against all odds.

Then I realized the whole desert thing and the quest was just A DREAM.

I'm moving to join my family in Canada today.

As I sat on the plane, my stomach churned with a mix of excitement and anxiety. I was leaving everything I had ever known behind, and I couldn't help but wonder if I was making a mistake. What if I didn't fit in? What if I couldn't make friends? What if I missed my Aunt and Uncle who took care of me for the past 3 years too much?

But then I remembered why I was doing this. I wanted to experience new things, to challenge myself, to see the world from a different perspective.

And as the plane took off, I felt a sense of liberation wash over me. I was free to be whoever I wanted to be, to explore new cultures, to make my own way in the world. As I landed in Canada, I felt a sense of trepidation, but also a sense of wonder. Everything was so different, so strange, so exciting. And as I stepped out into my new home, I knew that I was ready for whatever lay ahead.

They say the beauty of love is that You can fall into it with the most unexpected person at the most unexpected time,But I never thought I could ever like someone after what my dad did to my mum.

As I stepped out of the airport, I looked around, trying to spot my family in the crowd. I had never been to Canada before, and everything felt so new and different. But then I saw them, waving and calling out my name, and I felt a sense of relief and joy wash over me.
