Making a new life is one of Ella's biggest fear.She had always wanted to stay back at her beautiful home,it's better over there and just when it seems to be getting better at Maple , Caleb Smith is hell bent on making life worse in every way possible . Both are confused teenagers with heavy family issues...Sadly for them, they fell in love... scared to admit their feelings and still kept tutoring one another. At a point they both felt like no one else had the right torture either of them except by themselves Stupid and hurtful love would they admit their feelings or push it away?
"I thought this is supposed to make me excited" ...these were Ella's thoughts looking out the car window.Her family just moved into a new home and this doesn't
make her happy at all . She felt like she had left her entire life behind
Still driving across streets ,she wondered why people get excited about moving out , meeting new people,it's going to be a long process making new friends settling into her new school. She'd miss her bestie,Kate had always been a part of her life, what would it be like living without her ,can she even summon the courage to trust people enough with secrets
"I just want to go back"she said after a sigh
"Sweetie?" Her mum called from the front seat adjusting the rearview mirror to see her face
"Yes?"
"You wanna go back?..."
"Umm...no"
"But you just said so. Loud and clear"
Ella started to wonder if she really said that out loud or she thought of it.
"It was a mistake..I didn't mean it". Her mum looked into her eyes and concluded she was lying
Mrs Davis turned to look at her husband who was driving
"Say something...this trip has been too quiet "
"I really don't have the time to talk now. Maybe when we get home and I've had the time to rest my head" he replied coldly
About thirty minutes later ,the car pulled over at the front of a house
They all alighted from the car
"Home sweet home!"Ella's mum said slamming the car door
"How's it supposed to be sweet when we haven't gone inside yet"Ella said almost rolling her eyes
Their things were already packed in by some bulky men days before the present day
So they didn't go through so much stress
Walking in, Ella examined the entire building
"It a bit pretty though" she thought
Her dad's countenance had changed for days now but she was not the best person to ask .she was close to neither of her parents. All she had to do was ignore
"Where's my room?"she asked hastily
"That way" her mum said pointing towards a narrow hallway at the left side of the building
Soon Ella went in
Admiring her new room... though it was not purple like her previous room. She let out a heavy sigh and suddenly remembered something
She searched all over her room she couldn't find it
"I thought mum said she made sure they brought all my belongings.. . where is it then"she muttered
"Mum!"she screamed storming out of the room
"Yes honey".
"Where is it?"
"Where's what"
"My diary...where is it"she asked almost getting angry
"Umm... about that...."
"Don't tell me you disposed it. Please don't tell me you did"Ella said getting teary
"I did. You don't need it,you have me,talk to me...you always locked yourself up in that room for hours writing God knows what.I do not even know you half as much as that diary does... I had to dispose the damn thing"
She paused moving closer to her daughter
"I realized I made a mistake getting it... talk to me instead and stop keeping to yourself...when i see changes, you'll get a new one "
"I hate you "Ella said in a teary voice running back to her room
"Lord help me" Mrs Davis sighed
Ella landed heavily on her bed sobbing
"Why does she want to know me...all of a sudden she wants to be close to me...what happened to work and clients... it's going to take more than disposing my diary to get me to talk to her"
She felt a surge of sadness throughout her entire being.she just wants to live alone, maybe with Kate or her diary
"I miss the real home already "
coming soon
