One action, one word, one love, it only takes one thing before everything you’ve come to love comes crashing down on you. There comes a time in someone’s life that no matter how happy you become something will always come and ruins it. Even when you have to fake a smile, and tell everyone that you’re alright when you’re not. That’s not right especially because when you do that, you’re also lying to yourself. But in the end no one knows what you’re going through because they’re not you. Betrayal is all I felt when I walked in just to see my sister with my mate. I just had to go and do whatever I can to forget about it, but even I know that’s something that’s not that easy to forget even forgive. So, I left in the hopes of never returning to the place that held so many memories and pain. But no matter what I know that my past will soon come back to hunt me no matter where I go. I know I have to make a life for myself, and so without a second thought I packed my bags and went off to college in hopes of finding a better life for myself, where I can be myself without having to hide who I truly am. A new life, a new way of living, as well as new friends. But everyone knows that making new friends is never easy especially if your always at the top of your class. I paid no attention to it, because unlike any one-year students, I didn’t deviate from my goals. After so many years of the same routine; going to classes, doing homework. It all became a habit that I couldn’t just leave behind. As a college student on a full ride scholarship, even though hitting those books to keep up with my grade wouldn’t do, so I went job hunting in hopes of finding a part-time job while I was in school. After 4 long years, I finally graduated and quit my job. I did give my two weeks’ notice first. It took me about a day to figure out how to put my plan in motion. You see, during my first year I knew that I didn’t want to stick around after graduation, so a plan started forming in my mind. As soon as graduation is over, I’ll move far away from this place, from where anyone that new me could find me. But the only thing is where would I go? Where will I stay? If I move to a new country, I would have to learn a new language, not that I minded doing that. Then a though occurred, a place where I can go and there is no way to track me down. An Island. Then I remember of one place where I came across while reading in a book. Autumn islands, even though it’s hidden and no-one knew where it was located. So, obviously this would be a challenge finding these islands. Even though it took sometime due to homework and studying and my job, I was able to find it. Based on the reading Autumn Islands was just a name based of the surrounding islands, but it was the one that stood out the most out of all four of them. And so, after I graduated, I packed my stuff and headed out to a place where I would soon be living. I looked back and with one last thought I left and vowed not to return.
