Chapter 2:
How am I supposed to carry on. I can't cry, I have run out of tears. Today is the funeral of my beautiful family. Sitting in Church and looking at the beautiful pictures of them, my heart hurts so much. I stare at my moms photo, I look so much like her, Black hair, flawless brown skin, I have my dads gray sparkling eyes and cheeky smile. The small things are the most that I will miss.
I'm surrounded by my parents closest friends that are family to me, my aunt and uncle are here from America. I'm glad there here even though I haven't seen them in ten years, But at least I know that all these people around me are feeling the same pain I am.
I've decided to sing one last song for my family, it's going to be hard but I need to do it for them and also for myself.
I take a deep breath, and look around the church. It's really packed, I didn't realize how many people knew my parents and all I see are sad faces. It breaks my heart. I hope they like my song.
I take my stand at the podium, and look at their faces, I close my eyes, take a deep breath and start to sing with all my heart, putting all my emotions and feelings into this last song that I will ever sing :
" Always you will be part of me
And I will forever feel your strength
When I need it most
You're gone now, gone but not forgotten
I can't say this to your face
But I know you hear
I'll see you again
You never really left
I feel you walk beside me
I know I'll see you again
When I'm lost, when I'm missing you like crazy
I tell myself I'm so blessed
To have had you in my life, my life
When I had the time to tell you
Never thought I'd live to see the day
When the words I should have said
Would come to haunt me
In my darkest hour I tell myself
I'll see you again
I will see you again
I'll see you again
I miss you like crazy
You're gone but not forgotten
I'll never forget you
Someday I'll see you again
I feel you walk beside me
Never leave you, yeah
Gone but not forgotten
I feel you by my side
No this is not goodbye"
I finish the song. My eyes are still closed, I finally feel at piece and I know that no matter what I will always be surrounded by those who love me.
I slowly open my eyes, everyone are on their feet clapping and crying but somehow their tears are mixed with grief and joy. Singing that last song has really made me stronger, the lyrics in the song mean so much to me. Feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
I stand up tall, hold my head up high, and I walk towards my future with my aunt and Uncle beside me. I know America is a million miles away from New Zealand, but in reality this move is probably what I need in my life right now.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
"Wake up honey, We here" my aunty says, while shaking me awake
On the flight here, my aunty was telling me that she has three kids, Sophia she's the eldest but she's at university, Blake he's 11 and then there's lil Abby she's only four. I can't wait to meet them, I'm excited for once. It's been a long time since I last smiled.
I finally got out of the taxi and looking straight ahead is the most amazing house I've ever seen. Its huge, no that's an understatement it's a fricken mansion. Feels like my eyes are going to pop out of my head. I can't believe that I will be living here.
All the sudden I notice that the atmosphere is different, I look around me and every house I look at is huge. And then reality kicks in, I'm in America. Omg I'm in America. I've never been out of New Zealand in my whole entire life and now I'm in America. Still feels like it's a big dream.
Finally I tear my eyes away from the house and help my uncle with the luggage
"What you reckon kiddo ?" He asked
"Its fricken huge. I thought houses like these were only in movies" I replied
Uncle chuckles to himself and said
"I know. As soon as your Aunty saw it she fell in love with it. I hope you will fill like you're at home Violet, this is your house now"
"Thanks uncle, that means a lot to me" and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Can I ask you something ?" I asked
"Sure shoot kiddo"
"Well I was wondering, do you think ill be mocked at school because of my accent" I say
"Doubt it, I reckon everyone will want to be your friend once they hear your accent. Let me tell you very rarely you come across a New Zealander in America, and if they do it usually in big places like New York and what not" he replied
"Well that makes me feel a bit better I think. Lucky I am not shy a person" I say and which makes us both laugh.
"Come on you slow pokes" Called my aunty
"Coming" we yelled.
Let me tell you, if thought the outside the house was amazing, the inside is even better. It feels like I'm in a fairytale or something. Like I said this place is huge
"Kids we home" uncle yells.
Next minute I see Blake and Abby coming down the stairs. Aw they are the most adorable little kids. Blake just looks like his father, he's pretty tall for a 11-year-old with his dads blue eyes and olive skin, and Abby she looks just like her mom. She has the biggest green eyes, with cutest dimples and black hair.
"You must be Blake" I say
"Mhmm" he replies. He's a little shy, so I just give him a kiss on the cheek. Aw so cute he blushes a little
"Nice to meet you Blake, I'm Violet" I say
I bend down and look at Abby
"Wow this pretty young girl must be Abby"
"Yes" She yells excited, next minute she jumps on me and gives me the biggest hug. Wow for a four-year old shes really strong
"Nice to meet you Abby" give her a kiss on the cheek
"You too. omg you're so pretty" she said
"Aww thank you"
"You are welcome" she said
"Well Violet, welcome to the family" my aunty said.
"Thank you aunty" I say
"If you ever need anything, your uncle and I are always here. okay" she asked
I nodded my head
"Well Abby how about you show Violet her new room" with that we both run up the stairs to my room.
We reach the door, and omg my heart is beating like crazy, I can't wait to see what it looks like. Abby opens the door and yells
"Violet this your room"
Damn. Its amazing. My room its purple, with a four-posted bed, huge t.v, and a desk, with a laptop and everything. Omg I even have my own walk in wardrobe. Then I look out the biggest window iv ever seen in my life. WOW ! the view is amazing. Can this place get any better.
There's a soft knock on my door. "Come in" I yelled
"How do you like your room Vi" aunty asked
"Omg aunty its amazing. Absolutely beautiful." I replied happily
"Well I'm glad you like it"
"Like it, I absolutely love it !" I replied, which makes her laugh
"Well Vi, I hope you feel very welcomed here, and you know we are here for you 24/7" she said
"Yes aunty. Thank you for everything. I'm sorry that I had to be a burden on you" I reply
"Aw you're not a burden sweetheart, I'm just glad that your here where I can look after you. You look so much like your mother Vi"
"Thank you aunty" I give her a very big hug and kiss on the cheek
"Well Vi, we have enrolled you at Roseview High School. I think you are going to love it here, but American high schools are very different to ones back home. There's more students here, bigger buildings and criteria is different" she said
"Don't worry aunty I'll handle it"
"That's good. Well you better get some sleep, because we need to go shopping for clothes and school stuff tomorrow and on Monday you will be starting your first day" she said
"Kay. Thanks again Aunty. Feeling a bit jet lag now" I replied
"Okay sweetie. Sleep tight. Sweet dreams, don't let the bed bugs bite"
"Night" I say. She finally closed the door behind her, and I just lay down and think about everything that has happened in the past week. What a week. I feel so exhausted and overwhelmed. I fell asleep dreaming about my family.
