when it's finally time to leave, i wonder what my parents will say. Mom will try to hide her sadness, smile and say she's proud of me, then say some corny joke about raising me, Dad will grunt, give me a hug, tap me on the sholder and say something like "good luck kiddo" then they'll come home to their now empty house. Two teenage children would be wiped from the surface, discarded CD's, lost socks, books, and random clothing articles will not be found. Empty rooms filled with empty emotions. Dad will sit down at his computer and fuigure out how long untill i'll be completely out of his life, financially and then he can finally forget he ever had a daughter. Mom will sit down in her room with the thousands of pictures we have that we never put in scrapbooks but always planned to. She'll start at the beginning first steps, first words, first dissapointment, then go to the end. She won't remember the worst parts, she was lucky enough to block them out. She'll only see the smiles i make, the fake smiles. The smiles i made only for her.
