(no subject)
So I went to Lea's kick-ass party and my dad came to pick me up. After we got in the car and talked about the party, he brought up the whole moving scenario again. The fourth time, now. Fourth! Why can't he see that I don't want to move away from South? I know that he wants me to be in a better school with a better AP program and a better theatre department, but who cares? We get to stay here until my sister graduates, but once she leaves I guess my dad doesn't realize how much it would affect me. He said, 'Well, you guys are lucky. You can always just call each other up and hang out, but in my day, when you were gone... you were gone!'
I understand his viewpoint, but the last three times he has asked, I have always ended up saying no. Will he ever drop the subject? Or will he keep bugging me enough until finally he just says we're moving or until I finally say, "Let's just go!"? I've said no before and I'm saying it again, just a little more subtly each time until, finally, I just may fade away. And even if I did, who would notice? I wonder, since I wouldn't be able to see who is there to realize that I just faded into the background, into the distance, into the horizon, and may never return...
