It had been two weeks and a half into a wonderful vacation in the Outer Banks, North Carolina. It was excellent and I didn’t want it to end. My parents told me to pack up all my items from our three-story beach house we shared with my twenty-four cousins. I didn’t want to leave. I only saw my family on the east coast once a year and I just didn’t want to leave them behind and have that time come to an end.
