Bakersfield California, 1998. you wake up and are immediately filled with dread. your parents are gone Which isn't new...you dont expect to see them till next week. you get out of bed and sigh knowing you can't even call your best friends anymore, you get ready for. school holding back tears the whole time. this new life is something you'll never get used to

Today's your birthday September 12, today you went into school expecting them to plan something but you were wrong.

You walk into school and find them and just stand there not saying anything. Head shoots you a look but you don't notice because your staring at the ground.
