Chapter one
A Lonely walk home



"Bye!" I said as I walked home from school waving at my friends disappear in the distance, I turned and started down the long winding road home, I kept wishing that Darlene or Christ lived closer to me so I wouldn't have to walk home all alone, I was really being stupid because there was no reason to be afraid of walking home alone, there everyone on the road home was someone I knew, not that I would ever need to knock on any of there doors, but it was nice to know,


I started thinking of dinner, something I only did when I was bored, and as I walked the road like always seemed to go on forever,


As I got into the driveway I saw my sisters dog running around, she stopped, stared at me, barked, and then after realizing it was me going back to walking in the back yard, Helen must have heard the barks because she stuck here head out the door waved at me and them held it open until I got there, when I got up the steps I gave a quick "thanks," to Helen as I went into the house put my coat on a door hook along with my bag and took my books into my bedroom,


Afterwords I washed up and came in for dinner, we talked about our days, as we had done a million times it was pretty much the norm untill Helen lit up with a cheery voice, "Only five more weeks until I get my own roooooom." I glanced up at her, she was referring to Girls Camp, I personally didn't really enjoy the Idea of spending a 'Couple of weeks' as my Father often put it, they weren't sending me away because if I said I didn't want to go they would have canceled and I wouldn't have gone but part of me wanted to go, I don't know maybe I was 'insane' like my sister Helen often told me,


After dinner I took out the trash and washed the dishes, witch I know drove my mother crazy, she wanted me to spend my last few days before my trip relaxing and packing, then after I was pretty much ready for sleeps warm dark embrace to take over,


I woke up the next morning at 4:03 am my parents were getting ready to start the day and I had been told Helen had come down with a cold and was sleeping, I ate breakfast and then read some of one of my books, and took another look at my map of the campsite, by the time I was done reading it I looked up and it was 5:14 am, I had to ride with Dad to work because it was near the bus stop and that was where everyone who was going to the camp was suposed to be at exactly 5:45 am, so I put my stuff in his car and we left,


when I got to the bus stop, I said goodbye, of course he only said "See you later." because we would see each other in only a few weeks, and I planed to write to my friends and family back home twice a week, lol maybe I was just being homesick even before I got on the bus, I waved goodbye again and said "I love you!" right before getting on the bus and pulling out.
