Chapter Six
Istand beside the SUV as Charlie wait patiently for me to say my goodbyes to Grams and Taylor. I tell myself not to cry as Grams hugs me tightly. I am heading to a place that will hopefully help me come to grips with what I am and help me to harness my newfound ability. I keep telling myself it is a good thing that I am going, but part of me knows I need to be here to take care of Grams. She lets me loose from the hug and immediately I am wrapped in Taylor’s arms and squeezed until I fear my ribs are going to snap.
“I am going to miss you so very much, Madison. It won’t be the same around here without you,” she says as tears drip down her cheeks.
“Oh Tay, don’t cry. It isn’t like we are never going to see each other again; I will be back home for the holidays, I am sure. If you think about it that isn’t very long since Halloween is right around the corner. It will go by fast,” I say as I tell myself not to cry.
I climb into the back seat of the SUV and Charlie closes the door. I roll the window down and wave as Charlie pulls out of the circular driveway in front of the house. Once we are out of sight of the house, I call home, the tears begin to flow, and I cannot stop them. I see Charlie watching me in the rearview mirror and I know I am worrying him. I try to pull in my emotions and stop the flow of tears that are flooding my face and wipe them from my skin.
“Don’t worry about me Charlie, I will be just fine. It is just hard knowing I have to be away from everyone I love,” I say as I finally pull myself together.
“I know it is going to be hard for you. I did this same thing with your father a long time ago. It was hard for him to be away from home also. He adored your grandmother and didn’t want to leave her with no one to help her. Your grandfather was gone a lot, so it was just us staff to help her. Your time here will fly by and you will be home with us again before you know it, my dear,” Charlie says as he pulls on to the interstate that will lead us to my new home.
I stare out the window and watch the scenery fly by as I wonder what the school will be like and if I will finally fit in. Excitement begins to grow inside me as I think of the possibilities of the new friends I might make. I close my eyes and let the sound of the tires against the road lull me to sleep.
