In 2005 the afternoon sky hummed peacefully as birds chirped a song. Justin stepped out of his dad's car as his father also stepped out holding a bag from Justin's favorite fast food restaurant. His mother opened the door with a big caring smile as he greeted her son after a long day at school.
Hours go by, and at the dinner table Justin was filled with joy and excitement as he got to eat his favorite.. his parents just looked at him worried and unsure whether to tell him or not. Justin noticed something off and wanted to know why.
"Ma? Pa? Is there something wrong?" Justin asked.
Mariah and Daniel didn't know what to say as they didn't want to upset the ten year old.
"Uhm, well dear me and your dad have talked. And we want a more promising opportunity for you in high school, so we talked about moving to New State City, the high school there is excellent and promising. So if you don't mind.. do you want to move?"
"Move, okay of course! Sounds fun!" Justin shouted excitedly.
On Saturday they left, as the car drove for hours Justin sat in the car as he looked out the window, he saw childhood buildings he saw, people who grew up with him, the elementary school who saw him grow up, and his friends who always had his back. He didn't know how to feel, sad? Excitement? Or something else?
But he knew leaving a big part of his life is just a part of life.
