I looked out the taxi window. Watched the raindrops run down the window. We were on our way to the airport.

I refused to move with her. I was leaving everything behind. My Cheerleading, my friends, my life was in Texas.

We were moving to Virginia because my mom got a job offer there.

Just the name of the state sickened me.

"Your going to have to talk to me someday." My mom said

"Nope, I refuse." I responded

"Hazel it won't be that bad, you'll love it! You'll make new friends new everything!" My mom spoke

"How dare you do this, i didn't want this. You didn't even give me an option! You don't care about my feelings!" I spit out

"I came home and all my bags were packed up. You expect me to just drop my life i had in Texas?" I said again

"Hazel!" She said while looking at me in the eyes

"You and I both know this is the best i could do. Sweetie me and you both need this money. Your dad left us, were broke. This job is going to help us. Help us slowly get through the year. So at least act like you care about my feelings and how we live."

She stated

She was right. She was totally right. I was being selfish. I forgot to think about my moms feelings to. She was leaving her life and friends behind too. She wasnt doing this for herself. She was doing it for me, for the money we obviously didnt have.

We finally arrived to the airport. I got out of the taxi and walked to the doors and stood there. I took a deep breath, and walked in. Here goes to a new life, a new start. I said to myself.

~~~~~

"Hazel wake up were here." My mom said while nudging me.

I slept through the whole flight. I must've been super tired, tired of over thinking things.

A taxi was waiting for us. The car ride was silent. When we arrived at the house (the job my mom was taking agreed to pay for untill she could handle paying it herself) it was nice. The nicest house we lived in.

Uhaul was waiting for us outside with our stuff. I started walking to the door

My mom cleared her throat very loud. So i turned around "what?" I said

"Help with the bags and furniture!"

~~~~~~

I layed on my bed. Exhausted from putting everything away. I had turned off my phone to just forget about things.

"You start school tomorrow at Woodbridge highschool." My mom said while standing at my doorway

Just hearing that made me wanna cry.

My mom walked over to my bed and sat down.

"I know its rough, things will get better for us. I promise." She said

That made me wanna cry, but i held back the tears.

"I know." I said quietly

When she left and closed the door behind her. I cried. I cried for what seemed hours.

I cried myself to sleep.
