The Summer When Everything
Changed
Three
I loved Miami Florida as soon as I stepped off out
of the cool airport and into the warm summer sun. Being from
Rochester New York I was prone to cold weather for most of the
year. But this was amazing. Most people I knew would have said
this was way too warm; it must have been at least 95.
“Susie?” I turned to see my dad
standing near an amazing black convertible. He was
defiantly not
as lame as I remembered him to be. He had swim
trunks on and a kind of fancy, kind of casual shirt on. He
reminded me a lot of Jimmy Buffet.
“Dad? Oh my gosh!” I ran over to him
and embraced him in a hug. “How are you?”
“Great, just fine honey.” Me pulled
away and looked me up and down, “My, you have gotten so
big! How old are you? Seveteen?”
“Yeah, turned seventeen about two months
ago.” I smiled at him. “I’m going to graduate
early too, so you don’t need to worry about school.
Technically, I’ve already finished high school
so…” I trailed off.
“Wow honey that’s great, I think
you’re going to love it here.
***
Dad’s house was huge. It was at three
stories high and extremely modern. “Wow, dad…
You've don’t good.” I was almost aggravated b
this because of how poorly Mom was doing financially, even with
me and my sister working job.
“Yeah hun,” He trailed off seaming
distracted. “I work a really good job.”
“That’s awesome. Down in New York, we
aren’t exactly doing so well, but with me not being there,
maybe they will do better. I’m going to send money to the
if I get a job here.”
“That’s wonderful,” He still had
the same distracted look on his face and was looking towards the
black metal front door.
“What is it?” I questioned him
slowly.
“Um, well. I think you should know that I
have a fiancée Susie.” He bit his lip down in
confusion. “And she’s going to be over any minute.
However, she doesn’t know you’re moving in with me
and she’s not fanatic about kids.”
“Oh”
Feedback? Thanks so much, I love you
all, I will write the next chapter after five faves, and I
PROMISE it will get better
