Everything seemed perfect until I had to eventually go back home.I packed up my stuff and ran home,eager to get into a warm bed.However,I saw an ambulance and a few fire trucks outside my neighborhood.Swearing underneath my breath,I picked up my pace.I ran to my home,where a police officer stopped me.Now I was seriously pissed.And freaked.The police officer explained that my mother had had too much to drink,and wound up beating herself to death.I didn't cry.Or make a scene.I simply went back to David,and told him what happened.He grinned kind of silly.I asked him why he was smiling when my mother just died.He said it was becuase now there was no one holding us back.We could do whatever we wanted.A few days later,the scene was cleared up,and I went home.David came with me.We lived in the house for a while.My mom had a savings account building up for emergencies,so we lived off of that for a while,riding our bikes to and from the store.I posted up flyers advertising things I could do.Babysitting,lawn mowing,hedge trimming,physical labor.Eventually,I got a really good job,reeling in at least $500 a week.I grinned as the first paycheck came in the mail.David and I opened it together.
David went on to college,while Evie stayed at home.She later got an education,and they both got very good jobs,earning good wages of cash.Soon after turning 22,Evie was pregnant with a baby boy.They decided to name is Daniel,after David's father.Evie was a stay at home mom for four years,while Daniel was growing up.After that,she went back to work,and Daniel was raised into a young man who achieved great things.
