Here is the second chapter: My alarm went off at 4:30. I wanted to ignore it, but I knew I couldn´t. I couldn't ignore my thoughts either. I was thinking about my uncle. Uncle Hendric. When my mom talks about him she makes him sound sweet and caring. But I know that deep down, she has always been afraid of her brother. Whenever she finds herself talking about him she always covers it up with a sugary coat of praise. I bet that she would never dare to say anything bad about him, not even when he was miles away from us. I thought about my dad too. "Did he have a choice to do what he did? And did he care about me enough to realize what he was doing to me when he made his decision and how I would be affected by it?" Just then, mom called for me with a tired voice, "time to go!¨ Sighing, I sat down on my stripped bed taking one last look around my room. Sure, it was small, tiny in fact, but it held so many memories. Sleepless nights my parents spent rocking me back and forth to the moment I realized that I was going to school for the first time. How could I leave it? The same question has echoed in my mind since the day the words "We’re going to Florida” slipped out of my moms mouth. How could I leave it? How could I leave it? How could I leave it? I think the car ride to the airport was the hardest thing I ever had to experience. Watching the familiar shapes of the shops and buildings I have known forever slip by knowing I may never see them again. We made it through security in record time. Mom was glad, but for some reason, I wasn't. Every moment here was precious and we had to leave it so soon. We quickly headed for the gate that the flight board had told us. The tiny propeller- powered machine waited for us. I was surprised mom even had enough money to scrap up a third class ride. We boarded the plane with heavy hearts. I carefully choose a seat near the small window. The plane lurched forward at the highest speed imaginable. I leaned over in my seat and watched the soft colors of Massachusetts disappear below disappear below me.
