Summer that changed it all
Chapter 2
I walked until my feet were to an aching point . Than i had to had to face my problems.Something i was never good at . I always made the wrong decisions . The closer i got to my house the more nervous i got . I could feel my heart beat accelerating with each step . I felt the sweat start to accumulate on my hands . The overwhelming thoughts in my head not sure wether to be angry , sad ,both , or just accept what happened and move on . All i knew was i was going to decide quickly , because my house was coming into my line of vision . Closer and closer each step i took staring at the street as if it was going to stop moving . Finally i had reached the tip of my drive way and my decision had been made i was going to come clean . She wouldn't care anyway .I twisted the knob open and walked in there my mom was tears still flooding from her face sitting on the couch .
"Taylor !"She exclaimed sh*oting up from the couch . Immediatley wrapping me in a hug . In which i responded hugging back .
"I'm sorry . i'm so so sorry ."My mother said into my hair .
I didn't say anything i just pulled out of the hug .
"I'm ready ."I said .
"Ready for what ?"My mom asked confused .
"To awnser your many questions . "I replied my moms lips forming into a smile as if to say thank you .We sat on the couch tension present . Well at least for me .
"How long ?"My mother asked .
"Freshman year . When things became to much ." I replied .
"Why ?"She asked looking as if she was going to burst into tears at any given moment .
"Bullying , other stuff .."I trailed off .
"And i never even knew .."My mom said guilt rolling off her every word .
I rolled my eyes .
"How could you ?"I asked rhetorically .
"This has to change . "My mom said thougthfully wiping her tears .
"What has to change ?"I asked .
"This . You're moving in with your grandmother for the summer . I wish i could help , i wish i could have the time , i wish i could be there for you .With the amount of work i have i can't and i want to leave you with someone who can ."My mom said through tears .
"I'm sorry .. "I said bursting in tears .
"For what darling ?"My mom asked .
"For being so uncontrollable , so reck*ess , so bothersome , so wrong , so me."I said knowing every word coming out of my mouth were true i was a walking human disaster .
"It's not your fault .It's mine , and i'm trying to change it . After your final tomorrow pack your bags for the summer . You'll be staying with grandma Kara in South Carolina "My mom explained seemingly sad.
"Okay ."I responded .
It's not that i minded going there , because i didn't have anything to hold onto here anyway .It's just moving from here to the south sure was going to be a change .What was hard to accept was the fact my mother was just sending me off to my grandmothers . Just like that as if i was nothing . Even if my grandmother?Really my grandmother ?She's probably going to care less than my mother . I had only seen her once when i was younger maybe seven or so other than that i had never seen her so this would be interesting .
