Well my name is Destiny, and I want everything. I want the perfect family, the perfect relationship, the perfect friends, the perfect life. But my life is far from perfect. Yeah there are those small yet perfect moments I look forward to in life, like getting a phone call from my father. See when I was 12 my parents got divorced, they said I would understand when i'm older, Which I understand they just fell out of love, I haven't seen my father since then. That is why I look forward to hearing from him, I am a daddy's girl and I will always be. I love my mother very much, But I miss my father everyday.
'Secrets' By One Republic started to play on my phone. I stand up from my bed and grab my phone. "Hey dad" I said with a smile on my face. "Hey sweetie" "Whats up?" I ask while walking to my closet after checking the time. "Nothing, I was just wondering about something" "Oh, what would that be?" "I was wondering if you would like to spend this summer with me." He said, and I dropped my phone. I stumbled to pick it up. "Wait, what." I said expecting him to say he's kidding. "I said, would you like to spend this summer with me?" He asked again. "Yes, I would love to" I said filled with joy.

I spoke to my father for a while after he asked if I wanted to stay with him. Talking about when I should leave, Where he lives, and such. I then got ready to hang out with my best friend Haleigh, like we do every saturday. I grabbed my bag and walked to my car after locking my front door. I drove to Haleigh's apartment in less than 10 minutes, I walk up to her door and pull out my key and open the door. "Haleigh, Im here." I yell to let her know of my presence. I drop my bag near the door, and walk to the kitchen to get a drink. I then sit on her couch waiting for her to finish whatever she is doing.
"Hey Girl." Haleigh said walking into the living room with a hair brush, sitting down next to me. "Hey, guess what?" "What" "Well my dad called, and he asked me something ." "And, what would that be?" "If I wanted to spend the summer with him." "Really, He wants to see you after years of nothing but phone calls, no efforts to see you." She said pointing out reasons I should say no.
"Yeah I know, he hasn't really been there for me and I see that everyday. Maybe he's trying to make a difference now. Maybe he wants to see me but didn't think I wanted to see him, or maybe he thought I would still be mad at him." I said. "Yeah I guess your right, so wait when are you leaving? and where does he live anyways?" She asks while brushing her hair and looking at me. "Well see thats the thing, Im leaving in a week. I know we had plans this summer to have fun and party it up, but this came up. Im gonna ask him if he can fly you over so that we can spend some time over there." "That sounds like a good plan, where does he live?" She asked putting down her hairbrush and giving me all of her attention. "He lives in Lewisville, north carolina."
A/N: I know this sucks compared to my other books, but I just wanted to have a little something in this book. I promise it will get better the more I write, Okay Favorite and Leave comments :D Thanks
I spent the last two days spending time with Haleigh and my other friends, saying bye and packing. Currently i'm still packing, "Destiny, hurry up or your gonna miss your flight." My mother Abigail said. "We have a few hours" I said, My mother is the type of person to be early never late. Every time we have to go to the airport we leave hours early because she swears there will be traffic, we always end up waiting an hour for my brother each time. "No we have to leave soon, theres gonna be traffic" typical mom. I finish packing the things I needed from my bathroom and zip up my suitcase, I start taking all of them downstairs. I only have one carry-on and two suitcases, if I need anything ill just buy it over there.
I walk into my kitchen after putting the suitcases by the front door, and grab a bottle of water from the fridge. I turn around to see my mother sitting in the backyard on the phone. I walk over to the sliding door and enjoy the view of our little garden that I maintain. "Honey, it's time to go" My mother says, trying to hold in the tears. I walk over to her and hug her. "I love you mom, I always will. You will be fine without me for a while, just don't forget about the garden." She cracks a smile with a small laugh. "See thats what im gonna miss" I said, making her smile more.
"Okay we better go, don't want to get caught in traffic" Smh. I walk out and bring one of my suitcases while my mom brings another. We load it into the car and start heading to the airport. About 5 hours later my flight lands in greensboro, northcarolina. The nearest airport to Lewisville, I get of off the plane and headover to baggage claim after grabbing my carry on. As im going down the esculator and checking my phone I see my father at the bottom behind all of the havock, of people saying hello and how they missed there loved ones.
I walk over to him trying to weave through the people, and immediately hug him. He hugs me back "I missed you dad." I said first. "I missed you to sweetheart, you have grown a lot I see." He said smiling down at me "Well im not a little girl anymore" I said with humor. "Yeah, but you will always be my little girl" He said while taking my carry-on from me. We then wait for the suitcases to come down the belt.
After my suitcases had came out we grabbed them and headed to valet parking, then we put my bags in his car I hopped into the passanger seat and got comfortable. On the drive home we didnt talk much because I ended up taking a nap, and by the time we got to his house it was turning dark outside. I got out of his car to admire the beautiful huge home, the home was a grey color with beautiful flowers surrounding the porch. I hope I like it here.
I helped my father grab my bags after looking at the front yard, we headed to the front door which was some french looking door. We walked in the foyer, and I took a quick skim of the house. To the right is a living room, the left is a hallway and to the right of the hall is the stair case and straight ahead I see a kitchen. "Follow me to your room" said my father smiling at me. As though he's been waiting to say that for a while.
I follow him up the stairs looking at the pictures on the walls, there is a lot of beautiful artworks on the walls that I can't help but smile. We then reach a door at the end of the hall on the left side, he opens the door and let's me in first. I am shocked, the room is beautiful with a twilight grey color on the walls with a white French theme bed to the left of the room. Including a vanity, bookshelf, dresser, closet, personal bathroom, and a small personal patio with French doors.
"Do you like it?" "No, I love it dad." I said turning around and engulfing him in a hug. "I'm glad you love it, I'll leave you to unpack." He said while walking out and closing the door behind him. I then start to unpack my suitcase with clothes and put them in the dresser till I feel like hanging them. I grab my phone and step out onto the patio, texting my mom and calling Haleigh while leaning on the railings.
"Hey sweet cheeks, how was the flight?" Said my energetic Best friend. "Hey babe,the flight was bumpy but pretty good." "We'll I'm glad your safe, how was it seeing your dad for the first time in like forever?" "We'll when I saw him I was happy on the inside but I kept chill on the outside like you showed me, and when I hugged him it was like he never let go all those years ago." I said with a single tear shedding down my cheek.
"Poetry my dear friend, you speak poetry" I started laughing, Haleigh always makes me laugh when I want to cry, one of the many reasons I love her."I'm just amazing like that." I say while resting my right hand on my heart looking at the sky which seems to be getting darker by the minutes. "I miss you des." She said sounding sad "Aww, I miss you to boo, so very much." Hey des.?" "Yeah." "I love you." "I love you to" "Text me tomorrow?" "Definitely" "Goodnight." "Sweet dreams."
