Chapter 11
After school, I finished my dance class and drove home. I got home, took out my keys and opened the door.
My mom was was just setting the plates on the table. "Put your stuff down and dig in. It's your favorite, Mashed Potatoes, Peas, Tator Tots, and Chicken Nuggets. " my mom said. "YAY!" I squealed while throwing my bag on the couch and running to the dining table. We say our grace then start eating.
I remembered my mom wanted to talk so I asked, "Thanks mom, this is delicious, so what did you wanna talk to me about?" I said getting more food then sitting down.
My mom took a deep breath. "Well, I went to the meeting. They loved my art work, and fashion designs. They said they are gonna be big, and I can get paid about $5,000,000 for them." she told me. "Mom! That's awesome! I'm so proud of you." I told her.
"Thanks darling. But let me continue. So, we had an agreement. But she said I'll have to move to Bejing, China then Milan, Italy for a few months or couple weeks to further this."
My eyes widen. "Wh, wha, what?! Milan ? China?! Bu, Bu, that's about 9 hours away and China is like 30 hours away!" I screamed in amazed.
"Calm down honey" she said calmly. "Calm down?! I can't mom! Like when are you leaving?! Where am I going?! What about my friends, my life?! " I yelled.
"Take a deep breath. In and exhale. I have to leave next week On Wednesday at 4:00 AM. Unfortunately, you can't come because of the passports, foreign schools, and the trip is already paid for. You'll have to go to California and live with your sister for a while until I come back." My mom explained.
"Cal- , Cal-, CALIFORNIA?! NEXT WEDNESDAY?! MOM! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!" I screamed with my eyes watering.
"No [yn] don't cry, it's -" my mom said before I ran upstairs. My mom knocked a few times, but couldn't get in since my door was locked. I cried myself to sleep.
