Chapter 3

The next night I’m at home, sitting on my bed, talking to Katie. Katie has been keeping me company, by staying with me. It’s around 2 am, and Mark has just come home. He is living with me right now, so I can stay here without going away. There is this new law where people under 24 cannot live by themselves. I know, it sucks! At least I only have 2 more years! Yay!!

Mark works the afternoon/night shift and is never home when I’m home. I can tell that the’s getting worried whenever he’s at work. He always stops by at night to check on me. Tonight is one of those nights. He has just got here, to check on me.

Mark comes to my room. Katie and I are talking about stuff, and getting very high. That’s what I’ve been doing since I heard about my parent’s death, drinking and smoking. “Fae, somethings can’t stay here by yourself anymore. You’ve been invited to stay with your old friend Dana Imbara in Israel. You leave in a week.” He then leaves to go back to work.

I’m speechless. “I can’t believe this. Why me?” I ask to no one in particular.

“I don’t know, where in Israel are you going to?” Katies asks.

“I’m not sure.”

A week goes by really fast. It doesn’t take me awhile to pack, so I spend a lot of time with my friends. I don’t know when I’ll ever see them again.

On the day I’m supposed to leave, everyone is do dad. They all come to the airport with me to say good bye. “Bye Fae! We’ll miss you. You better write to us every day.” Katie gives me a big hug.

“I promise. I’ll write everyday. I’ll call whenever I can. I love all of yall!”

Everyone gives me a hug good bye.

“Bye yall!” I yell over my shoulder as I walk into the plane.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I arrive, Dana runs up to me and gives me a big hug. Dana is a tall thin girl. She has very short brown hair, and she has 2 pierces in her ears. “I’m so happy to see you! It’s been way too long. I’ve heard about what happened, I really sorry.” Dana says with a thick Israelie accent.

“Hey. I’m glad to see you too. I agree, it has been way too long.” I reply.

Dana takes me to her car. In the car ride back, Dana and I catch up on somethings. We talk about school, family, guys, and lots of other stuff.

When we get back to her house, Dana helps me unpack. “What was your horses name?” She asks me.

“His name was Shah. I had to sell him before I left. It was really sad leaving him.”

After I finish unpacking, I go straight to bed. I’m really tired.

I start going to school here, and I learn a lot of Hebrew. Sometimes, I call Katie about how things are going at home. She tells me how the stables are not the same without me, and everyone wants me to come and visit, but I keep my promise and write every day.

I also keep in touch with Mark. He tells me that he’s trying to find a place for me to stay, but he doesn’t know when that will be. I don’t know when I’ll be going home, but I hope it will be soon!
