i sat in my room just thinking.
i leave for baton rouge on august 30th
i don't plan on really saying my goodbyes to my friends even though my only real friend is hailey.

i love my mom with all my heart i just don't understand why she's making me go with my father.
why did she only care until now?

i heard some loud voices out side my window since it was cracked open it sounded like more of a fight. i was curious to see what was happening.

i look out side and saw some familiar faces.

"mirah?" i whispered to my self as i watched a brawl happened.

//
i ran downstairs to the lobby running outside watching as mirah and her other 2 friends fighting like this could be the end of their life.

i pushing and squeezed getting through the big crowd of people. my eyes met mykel a face as he recorded.

"mykel what the fuck are you doing!" i yelled pushing as many people as i could off mirah her friends weren't helping at all. i was wondering where kam was how was she not here to help her sister?

it didn't take long for the cops to come leaving me, mirah mari and mykel. honestly i don't even know why the hell mykel was here and why i was left here.

mirah avoided the cops not wanting to tell anything the cops didn't care knowing this isn't the first time they've seen something like this.

mari walked off.

"macei we're you trying to swing on me?" mirah asked

i furrowed my eyebrow

"what? i was trying to fight the people off of you." i said

"you were trying to swing i saw you" she said raising her voice

"mirah we're not going to sit here and scream at eachother im not doing it" i said taking a deep breath before i continued

"and i'm the one your raising your voice at? mykel sat there and recorded." i said

"woah this isn't about me" he said

"it should be, you sat there and recorded all those people beating on mirah?" i said turning to him.

he just stared knowing he was in the wrong but mykel never was the one to argue with me all these new arguments were so unexpected and very unlike us.

"well i didn't see him, i only saw you trying to swing on me macei. aren't we supposed to be sisters?" she asked before continuing

"ever since your dad came to visit you, you've been acting very hollywood you not the same person but at the end of the day we're supposed to be sisters right? but now you're trying to swing on me?." she said
"i'm going home" she said turning her back towards me

i just stood there at a lost for words feeling very hurt. few seconds later i heard mykel walking away too.

//
and then again i find my self on a bench in a park alone again.

silently crying knowing i should be on my way home seeing how dark it's gotten.

"macei?" a voice called out

i looked up to see hailey with concern written all over her face.

"are you crying?" she asked

i tried to hurry and wipe my tears know it was to late.

hailey sat down next to me.

"you wanna talk about it?" she asks in a soft voice

i nodded
//

after i explained she looked confused as in she have never been in this situation before to help me.

"sometimes you have to pick and choose your battles mae." hailey spoke

"it's hard since they're really the only people i had emotionally and physically" i said

"i understand, but they seem to be going through their own stuff right now and their energy is just pulling everyone into what they have" hailey said
"you have to love people from a distance, as you get older you will meet new people" she said as i looked up at her.

it's crazy from a person i haven't known for so long can talk to me like i've known her for years.

"um, on august 30th i'll be leaving to stay with my dad for the first semester. do you think i'll meet new people there?" i said

"definitely, just be yourself you don't have to put up a different identity" hailey responded
"you might meet new family members who understand you more than what your friends did" she said

i nodded.

we stayed in silence for a little bit.

i really needed this but i know things won't get better until i can just leave on august 30th and not even have to think about them.

i laid my head on haileys shoulder just for the little remainder of time before i know my mom will call asking where i'm at.

—
do you think macei might start looking forward to august 30th so escape her current life or thug it out 

trying not to make this book sad the sequel will be way happier :))
