"ma, im not coming out of the bathroom. you heard exactly what happened." i struggle to say to my mom as she continues to pry. "sisi, i know you're hurting but maybe this is for the better? think of it as a new beginning!".
she can NOT be serious right now.
if you're confused, i just got broken up with because my mom is deciding to move my brother & i across the country for some stupid new job she got. apparently izaya, my now ex, can't handle a one hour flight distance.
i scramble myself off the floor & open the door, revealing my mother with open arms. "cmon sisi, a little hug won't hurt" she says with a small chuckle. i can feel hurt turn her head & whisper to my younger brother sekani that he should join the group hug.
"hell nah you got that mom" he says loudly. the tone of his voice is enough to make me laugh for the first time today. "SEKANI, im not one of your lil friends"my mom yells. she lets go and starts to chase him around the kitchen, dodging boxes containing what's left of our house in florida. "hey at least i got her to laugh!" sekani argues as he runs into the basement.
deciding to make the best of what's left of the night, i finish packing & make my way to the roof of our house. which is miraculously flat enough for me to be able to stargaze on. one of my FAVORITE activities. looking into my microscope that was gifted to me by my aunt, i feel relief when looking into the big night sky.
"why universe? why move me before junior year? from my friends, my school, my clubs..everything". moving to georgia was the last thing i saw myself doing. i'm trying to be optimistic but to be honest this is my world ending right in front of me. i try to brush off the feeling & just continue looking into my scope.
i plan on keeping to myself at whatever school i end up at. i mean, i barely had friends here already..but there's no one to blame but me since i pushed people away for izaya. that slimeball ass fool. i know i'm young but, i just wish that this "new beginning" can bring me some true connections. maybe even a new lover?
as i take down my microscope and get ready to head inside, i take one final look at the scenery. my heart gets warm, as i see that one star in particular is shining especially bright tonight.
maybe this won't be so bad after all.
