I live In Calirfonia . Where My Parents relationship Started Taring Apart, Where I have To now Live A Double Life. I was A Dreamer Before My Whole World Was Falling down. When I was 6 Years Old I preformed at my school's Talent Show. I danced to "Beat It " By Michael Jackson. my dad Didnt like It One Bit But My Mom Loved it & Believed That I was Blessed With something beautiful.! my dad would Put me Down easily , I always Felt Like He Never Liked me At All. I guess That's One Of The Reasons He's Leaving My Mom & I. I recently Moved To New Jersey,Englishtown. I loved The Brand New Fresh Air Of This Town & Wanted to meet the new neighbors.Even Though I always Had Second Thoughts Or Doubts ,I always took a Risk But When Im Too broken To take That Chance... It something...I can't Predict.
"honey!" my mom yelled .
I ran Downstairs ,sitting on the counter .
"I signed You Up For This Dance Studio...Called ICON dance Complex! You are absolutely Going to love it! " She Said Smiling.
"oh really? yay! When Do I start? " I ask getting Excited.
"today Sweet pea." She says chuckling.
"Ah! yay! I'm excited! AHHH !" I said .
I run outside and walked around the nieghbor Hood For Alittle while til my mom called Me To go head to The Dance Studio. While I was Walking A Ball Bounces Over to me. I look up and See about 7 boys Looking at me. I grabbed The Basketball & walk over to them.
"I'm guessing This Is Yours?" I said Laughing alittle.
"yeah. thanks!" He says smiling.
I was Just About To walk away until he asked him something.
"Are You new Here? your..Your Melanie right?"
"I moved Here a month ago & yes . " I said kicking a Rock
"oh. well Nice To Meet You. We Shoukd Hang Out sometime. Do You have a phone?" He asked.
"Wait. Haha What's Your name?" I asked
"Mikey..Mikey Fusco." He answered
"You look familiar. But yes I do Have a phone."
He Grabs His IPhone4s and hands it to me. I did the same, I looked over and Decided to wave to the other Boyz ,they all ran up to me & Introduced Theirselves. After They went back to playing basketball, I was Looking up ,down,left & right at the street sidewalk. I turned to them & asked If One Of Them could walk me home since I was Still sort of new to the neighborhood. Mikey & Nick Volenteered . Madison grabbed Mikey as Nick Ran Up to me. I turned back around ,but Didnt mind if they both wanted to walk me but I guess it bothered them.
"Sooo. What does your parents do for a living?" He asked keeping his Coolness
"Actually,To be Honest,They Got Divorced. Um,We'll My dad he works as A Chief & my mom she's a hair Stylist. " I answered looking down.
"Oh.sorry to hear that. " he says As He stopped walking.
"It's Okay. I blame it on myself because Basically they fought because Whenever my dad Saw Me Dance He would say Something that Completly let me down & my mom would see the look on my face & how Much It really hurted me & told my dad to stop & he would disagree & called me A Failure but hey I don't Blame myself Im not perfect I'm just a girl, with a dream. " I said Sighing, making a broken heart on the dirt...
"Your not a failure & your dad ,he's Nothing. Your mom seems like she's always been there for You ,your strong & you know That.it just takes the right Person to prove that To you..." He says As We Locked eyes..
"I'm not a princess,this Isn't a fiary tale" I whispered to myself.
"Your right. But ...well, I've had broken wounds before & still have them. It's Like Whenever Im dancing ..I feel like There's A Huge Big Piece Missing,yanno? But At The Same Time I feel As If I figure out what That Missing Piece Is..." I was Shocked as I finished what I said. I never really told anyone This Much before.
"I feel ya. I wish I knew What my missing piece was .."
We Continued to talk about things & We've Gotten way to close,too fast.He met my mom & they automatically clicked , he asked her if He Could Take me To the Dance Studio Since I was Laready signed up, my mom agreed. It was an amazing expericence so far. Everyone In that Stuio Was amazingly Talented . I met 6 girls . Gigi,Lesly , Karla, Annie , Jenna & Carrie. We automatically became Friends right when we all met. It's funny how When You meet someone You become friends with them in a heart beat. This Was Like My Second Family & They all Say "You can Never Leave a Family Even If You try." . it was True.
