AVIRA

"I'm not going anywhere mom. You can't make me leave. This is my home. please don't make me leave Paris, my friends, my school, my scholarship, Lisa. please I don't want to leave". I cried out, but I know it's just a waste of effort.

My mom would never go back on her words. She feels like she can control my life anytime. She was never there for me. Always busy with works.

And now been the third time am seeing her this month, she wants me to go to Forks, Washington.

Imagine. A small town with uncivilized people.

I don't mean to be rude but you don't expect me to be happy about it.

She expects me to go leave with the man that abadoned me since I was six. The man that was never there for me.

She expects me to leave the only people that ever treated me like I was something.. like I was a family. The Frederick's has always been there for me.

Lisa's mum was everything i wanted my mum to be but never was. I can't just leave them.. no.

"Am sorry Avira.. but it's for the best. The tour would be for a month. After then you can come back home". My mother tried explaining. She looks drained already.

Doesn't she get?

"You were never at home mom.. I can be fine on my own for one month. I really don't need you here". I screamed.

"You leave on Friday.. nothing changes". My mother fired back. And I could have swear I saw her fight to catch her breathe. There were dark circles under her eyes. She looked stressed.

Well, why wouldn't she be?.

All she does and does and does is work, not caring about her daughter feelings. That's what she's doing now. Sending me away to a stranger, because of money.

Now I know I have no choice. I'd be leaving Paris and there's not a fucking thing I can do about it.
