'You can do this Ry. He's family. Right now, he's all you've got.' That was my speech to myself the whole flight down here. The whole flight, I sat in my seat looking like a crazy person. I was on my way to Forks, having flown all the way from Maine where my mom lived. I lived on the coast, where in summer it got really hot, but it still snowed in the winter. I loved it there but now, it was just filled with memories that I'd rather forget. My mom you see died of cancer last month. She fought long and hard. She had breast cancer and she had been fighting it for years. The doctors said she had six months, she made it six years. 2 in remission, but the last four were terrible. My brother and I ate so many TV dinners we went to the neighbors house for a home cooked meal. My mom was the complete opposite of me, blond hair and sea blue eyes but my brother was just like her. I look more like my dad than anyone else. Which is bad because every time I look in the mirror I see the female version of the person who walked out on us when mom was diagnosed. He came for her funeral and tried to make up with us. I pushed him away, told him to go back to wherever he came from because he wasn't our father anymore. He was only a sperm donor.
"Alright we will be landing soon, please fasten your seat belts and turn off all electronic devices. Thank you for flying with us." The pilot says. Everyone scrambles to put on seat belts and/or wake up the person next to them. As soon as the door opens me and my brother Rhydian ( any WB fans out there?) grab our things and get off that plane. We're both a bit claustrophobic. My bag comes through as soon as we get to the baggage claim. Rhydian's bag comes through a while later. We walk around together until we see a bench in the corner. We go sit down and wait for our cousin Paul to come get us. I think we fell asleep because Rhydian shakes me and says "Come on we gotta go, the airport is closing."
" Wait, did Paul come?" I ask.
"No, something came up he sent me the address to his house and said the keys are under the mat."
