With so many things going on, this and that, deadlines and everything makes me so in to my college life right now. These things are taking most of my time, thought, and attention. I've never thought that people out there are going through a rough time. It was the past hour that I found out bad hurricane had just hit the town. Seeing the pictures and videos of how terrible this was and how bad this had affected the people had brought me up to think about one family right there. This makes me so very worried about those beloved people where I left part of my heart to. Then I just realized how long I haven't heard from them. How long I haven't talked to them. In that same second I was looking for a way to contact one person whom I love and miss so much.
"Mom what happened? Are y'all safe?" was the first line I wrote. Suddenly the picture of the family comes up to my mind, the pictures I rarely think about these past times, the pictures I miss the most, the pictures that remind me of the best year ever in my life, the pictures that gave me so much to learn, so much values, so much love, so much invaluable experiences that changing me into who I am today. Then I realized how bad I am as a daughter, a sister, a friend to have this attitude: I am really bad at staying in touch.
The strong feeling of missing them brought me into tears, I miss them very much! It aches here inside my heart just to think about them, when suddenly a call came in.
They called me.
Couldn't be more happy than to hear their voices and to see their beautiful faces again. It was so relieving to know that they are all safe. Thanks Mom. Thank you so much for calling me and letting me talk to all of you this night. Sorry Daddy for waking you up because I just can't help not to talk to you. Good luck Kayla for your college life and the little girls -that are not so little anymore, Baylee, Skyler, Morgan, be good to Mom and Dad okay. And finally Uncle Robby and aunt Michelle I hope both of you are doing fine and I hope I'll get to talk to you in our next call.
I love every one of you so much, since the very first day I came to the house and you welcomed me so warm as part of the family. I will come home again one day, promise to try my best.
So please take care, always stay safe and healthy.
Love,
your daughter, sister, niece, best friend, roommate, partner in crime, or any other role I could fit in,
Annisa Coleman.
