My title says it all but if you want details keep reading.
So on thursday when I came home from school with my friends,brother, and sister Jacob was yelling at my dad.
Jacob.
My 8 year old brother.
So we figured it was like he couldn't find his power ranger or something.
So we all went to our rooms and me and my buds were just chillaxen like we do everyday when my dad is all "Luke, Dominic, Jaimee. Would you come down here please!"
All of my friends started oooing and im all shut the fuck up.
So I go down there with my sister and brother. Jacob has locked himself in his room and I thought I heard him crying.
Hmmm. Maybe Kada (our dog) ate his power ranger. Whatever wouldnt be the first time.
So we go down there and my parents are in the kitchen at the table. W sit down and my mom is all "We have exciting news?"
So we sat there while my dad explained that his job was giving him a promotion.
So we were all "Oh thats great coolness."
Then my dad said theres one more thing.
"In order to get the promotion...we would have to move to Colorado."
I swear I heard my brother and sisters hearts stop.
Colrado.
Ten seconds must have gone by before we all bursted.
Jaimee shot up and started shouting at him about her friends and everything that we have down here. Then she stomped off crying. Dominics turn.
He knocked over his chair standing up and shouted about how he was planning on going to college hear and how he would miss the surfing contest.
My dad said he could still go to college here and then Dominic said that when he did go to college he would hoped he never saw them again.
He stomped off then it was my turn.
I didn't even yell and I didnt shout. Well, not at first I just sat there and asked one simple question.
"What about Maddie?"
Maddie was my girlfriend. I couldnt live without her. She had already moved to Santa Cruz which was 8 hours north.
We had just gotten used to the whole once a year thing and now I have to go farther.
My dad said the most cruel hearted thing I had ever heard him say.
"Luke, did you ever think that it might be time to move on?"
Thats when I shouted.
I stood up and started yelling and cursing and going crazy.
"What! What did you say! Move on? How could you say that! I love her! Fuck you! Fuck you and fuck you! Fuck your god damn job and fuck Colorado! I hate you!"
I threw my chair to the ground and stomped out. When I reached the stairs my friends were standing in my doorway with sad faces.
They had heard the whole conversation.
I haven't spoken a word to my parents since then. Jacob is my messenger. I'm supposed to be grounded but I sneak out all the time and sometimes just walk out even when there right there.
We're spending the rest of the school year here then leaving for Denver, Colorado during the summer.
Shit!!!!!
