To show my love to Chicago, I made a small excerpt of a story. If you guys comment, rate, and enjoy it, I will continue, but I won't write so much because I'm already writting a story.
Moving here is a pain. I never wanted to move here. I want to still be back home on the farm, in Tenesseee. I wish I wasn't in Chicago. I never liked large cities. They polute our enviorment, causes may crimes, and I'm just not used to it. My friends say I'm lucky to move to a large city, but I was just thinking of the opposite.
"Welcome to the windy city." I mumbled to myself.
My name is Lilian. Lilian White to be percise. I embrace nature and I'm not enjoying staying here. The reason why we're here because my mother, Martha Williams, argued with my father, David White, to get a better job, as so we ended up here. I'm an only child. Thank God for that. I'm 14 years old.
I stepped out of the car, and saw where we're staying.... a townhouse nearby where my dad's new job is. My new school will be a little far away. I will need to use the subway to get there on my own. Like that will be fun. I'll have to around smelly, grouchy people everyday, before and after school. I dress like a country person. So, my mom insisted me to look my city-like for me to fit in better. I didn't disagree because I didn't want to look like a wierdo. It was August 16th and it'll be school soon. I sighed and took my lugauges and took them to my new room.
I unpacked quickly because I didn't bring much. I brought my favorite books, movies, and pictures of my friends. I miss them terribly. Then my mom came in.
"Lily? Are you done unpacking?" she asked. I sighed, yes, Lily is my nickname.
" Yeah mom, do you mine if I go out, I want to have a look of the city." I asked.
My mom had a worried look on her face.
" Ok, but bring your cell. Don't talk to any strangers and be careful. The city is more dangerous than Tenessee." she warned me.
I already had my cell in my back pocket and I nodded.
" Alrighty then. Tell me what Chicago is like, you'll need to be back by 9:00 PM." she said and kissed my forehead. I opened the front door, and went outside and saw the skyline of the whole city to my left....
