Chapter 1 HENRY'S ORDINARY BEGINNING
HENRY'S ORDINARY BEGINNING
Mom? Please can we find a way?
"I don't want to go" I have a life here you know? '' I can't leave my friends.
'mom' please. I followed my mom to her bedroom pleading for us to stay. ''Henry please can you give me and your father time to talk? ''Okay mom.
I left my parents room still feeling down and hoping that my dad would help talk to my mom.
Leaving New York City was not my plan. I love this city and have things going for me here.
This city has been part of my life.it held a lot of my childhood memories. From my kindergarten to fifth grade I was homeschooled by my mother.
There were some advantages,like being able to sleep and going out at my own time.
However, Homeschooling almost turned me into an introvert. I didn't have friends, the only kid around was just my kid sister Maya who was just concerned with playing with her toys.
I was constantly fighting with my mom. my dad on the other hand, was barely home. He works so hard to give us a better and comfortable life. because of this, life became boring for me.
On a Saturday night, while we were having dinner, I complained to my dad that I didn't want to be homeschooled any more.
"Dad, 'I want to make a request' Go on Henry, " he said.
Please Dad I don't want to be homeschooled anymore, I want to go out there and make friends like my mates and experience life.
I don't want middle school to be lonely and boring. "Please Dad grant this request for me and promise to always be a good boy, I will score A's in all my subjects.
My dad and mom glanced at each other and my dad smiled. 'I trust you, my boy, but your mom and I have to think about it okay?
He said roughing my hair. Thanks Dad. I replied, smiling.
My parents had to make the hardest decision if I were to continue homeschool or not.
I overheard them arguing if it was the wrong and right thing to do.
"You know the dangers that lie ahead, I don't think we are ready yet to risk it.
My mom said, sounding so scared." Don't worry honey,'our son will be safe, this will help him learn more about life and protect himself.
I didn't understand what they were saying, all I wanted was to go out and make friends.
Even though I was sincerely nervous. I never truly knew if I would find a nice group of friends because I had no experience with a large social group.
I entered St. Luke's school in the eleventh grade which was quite the adjustment. I learned a lot and came out of my shell. I was able to make friends, interact and engage in sports activities.
My first day in St. Luke's school was in mid October, and was a little scary. I saw big buildings, teachers, rooms, lots of kids and lockers were all different and new to me.
I never had the opportunity to mingle and associate with other kids except for my only sister Maya, so there were no kids of my age to socialize with at home.
Now I have made more friends and am involved in school activities, like games, competitions, and basketball.
Over the years, I was very pleased with myself and had maintained a GPA of 4.5 and very active with school activities.
I became popular, everybody wants to be around me.
I was able to go for my music classes, and follow my friends for competitive swimming.
I became Henry who was loved by all.
And with my small beautiful supportive family I was able to achieve and made a name for myself.
I have never felt at peace with myself ever since I went for the most talked about ''swimming competition' that happened recently.I could sense that I was being followed.
The feelings kept coming until I couldn't hold it anymore, I told my parents.
'Dad, Mom, I think someone has been following me, I haven't seen him yet but I could feel it.
My dad dropped his car keys on the floor,fear zooming out of his eyes. " OMG" my mom exclaimed, they're here.my dad chipped in.
Who is here dad? Mom? Can someone talk to me? Please! What's happening?
Nobody was answering me and all of a sudden I heard my name.
Henry!
Go and pack your things,we are leaving now!
On the other hand, my kid sister Maya, who was now eleven years old, was happy about moving.
Portland has been her dream city. I will not be surprised if she planned this sudden relocation with my parents.
From the stories I've heard so far, Portland is a boring and small City, I don't know why mom and dad would want to move there.
Portland is a small City filled with so many trees, rivers and mountains.
I Don't know if there would be a good school to attend there. I said frowning.
While still wondering about the sudden relocation, I went to my room to get my luggages ready.
I opened my door and kicked my foot on the drawer out of anger.
" How could Mom and dad do this to me? I don't want to start up a new life elsewhere, I said in tears.
U went to my bedroom closet and removed my clothes from the hangers and folded them in my luggage. I walked down the stairs with my belongings using the wall for support.
While thinking of how I will be leaving all old memories behind, including my Best friend Mia. Dad shouted at me from the car to be quick.
I took my luggage to the car , and sat inside really angry, And took my mobile phone from my side pocket to play one of my favorite
