Moving On

chapter 1

I walked out into the warm summer evening. A new day, a new start I hope. I just got out of rehab because I was addicted to drugs, alcohol, and I was buliemic. I'm only 16. My name is Ana Jasmine Stevenson, Ann for short. My mom decided that we were moving all the way to Staton Island, New York from my sunny hometown of Paradise, California.

I don't want to go. Not one bit. But, my mother picked me up straight from the rehabilitation center I was at until now. The music barely even able to be heard I put in my headphones to my ipod and cranked it up to full volume. Looking back on what I was. A five foot four inch girl who only weighed 92 pounds. And only that when soaking wet. Now I'm healthy again. I don't binge drink like I did, and I don't do drugs anymore. I no longer feel the monsters creeping up on me. Trying to steal my soul.

But, anyways. I didn't have many good friends. I was to scared to let people get close to me. I've always been that way. My father is the reason why we're moving or so my mother says. I really think that she is scared people will find out about what my father did. We paid a lot of money to keep all of it a secret. But, I'll tell you my secret. My father abused my mother, my older sister, and me. He was also a very large drug dealer. My mother and I put all of that money in the bank. He had over a million dollars. Plus what he had hidden at the house that my mom didn't know about that I took and brought with me when I was checked into rehab.

I wish I could take it all back, but I can't. So now were starting over. I'm actually starting to like the fact that we are moving. Maybe I'll be able to get over my fears. I looked out my window in the front seat of the car. There were girls on the highway in their convertable car with pop music blasting. Deep down inside I wish I could be normal like them. But, I'll never be normal. Not again anyways.

okay so this is only chapter one... tell me what you think?? :)
