Before I Sleep

Where should I begin? Let's start from the beginning, my name is Emily Peters and I'm 18. It's the summer before I attend community College. My family doesn't come from a wealthy background so I decided to get my basics out of the way. I grew up in a home where money was always tight and my parents couldn't live together without arguing and fighting over bills and money. So when I was a junior in high school they divorced. Actually it was the best decision for all of us. My brother and I got the peace we wanted and our parents were now actually happy. My mom is engaged to a nice man. His name is Charles but he lets me call him Charlie. My mom is so head over heels for him. My brother doesn't have a problem with him, just as long as our mom is happy we're ok with him. For my dad Eric he's one of kind man. He owns his own biker shop. He's always been a biker and lived to ride. That was one of the things my parents argued about. He would leave weeks at a time to join his club on their rides. But he always made sure we had food on the table and bills paid. But that wasn't enough for my mom. My dad never remarried. My brother calls him the OG pimp. Hahahaha. He's so dumb sometimes. But they've gotten closer than ever. My dad has made my brother Kenneth a partner. So now he changed the name to peters and son. Now our family has become actually now very comfortable financially. I kind of enjoying the good life having two rooms and two wardrobes. I mean what 18 yr old wouldn't? For my graduation my dad actually came through and built my dream car from the frame up. Him and his club put in so many hours in building it. I was taken back when he showed up at my mom's house with a jet black camero. It was so amazing I cried and couldn't stop. It was amazing that all the guys showed up to bring me my car.
