' It has to be. It's for the best.'
My mom's words keep on ringing in my head while my eyes are focused on the door, waiting at any minute for him to show up.
Not long after thinking this, the door opens and in comes Connor. This is what I've been dreading yet knowing full well that it has to be done.
So before I jump right into this, My mom had a lot to talk about, well more like argued, chatted and then argued again and yep you guessed it, it's all got to do with Connor and my trip here in Miami.

Running, running and running, not getting to my destination but still energy being within me, I wake up still in the dark and being all sweaty, from my dream.
