Wivian Narrative

The morning was foggy and I could see the front of my school through my window. It was a nice sight to see. I walked into the kitchen to make myself a bowl of cereal and there she was with her head down on the table. I could tell that she arrived a couple of hours ago because the tears hadn’t dried from her cheeks yet. I got myself ready gave her a kiss on her forehead and headed off to school. I had walked into class eager to see what my teacher Mrs. Padron had in store for today. Every single day there was something new to learn and there’s something about that infinite nature of learning that really appealed to me as a child. I cherished those 7 hours I spent in class the most I could and I dreaded the mere thought of having to go home where I would have to face the

Deej Logan was just like any normal high school girl. She woke up on her first day of school and combed her hair, picked out the “perfect” outfit and headed out the door. What she didn’t know is that after that day nothing would be the same. Nothing that day seemed to be going right. At school drama was swarming all around her, not exactly what she hoped the first day would be like. By the time the last bell of the day rang she was more than happy to get out of that school. She drove home as quickly as she could but as soon as she got home she realized that she had forgotten to pick up her sisters. “Great.” She thought sarcastically as she sat back down in her car and drove off. Just then she pulled out her phone to message one of her friends about her awful day. That one decision changed everything. Before she had a chance to send the message Deej veered off into oncoming traffic and was killed on impact.

During that time in Liberia, there was a civil war going on causing her mother to make that decision of sending her only daughter away for a better life. Although she traveled with Pan Am, her family entrusted her to a man she didn’t know to bring to her extended family.

I woke up on the couch, screaming with tears running down my face. I tried to stop yelling, but I couldn’t. If I didn’t stop yelling Sebastian will wake up and then Lin and Vanessa will wake up and be furious with me. Suddenly, I hear footsteps coming from Lin and Vanessa’s room. Oh no, I woke one of them up, I quickly covered my mouth. I must look crazy, a teenage girl sitting on a couch disgustingly sobbing with her hand gripping her hand over her mouth tightly. The person who came out the Lin and V’s room was finally in front and I recognized the person as Vanessa. She sat next to me and swiftly encompassed me into a comforting cuddle position.

One day Talia was called to go to the office . Her mom was waiting for her and told Talia she had to go home right away. In the car Talia mom was talking that both of them had to move across country to California because Talia’s mom has a job offer and they will pay her a lot. When they got home they immediately packed some stuff and went to the airport . When they got there and Talia mom’s job had also offered them a big house. Talia was going to

Her parents want to move. Her Dad is invited to become the Dean of the Political Science at - . Alice is happy and is not hard for her to leave the old school. But she misses her old house and her grandparents who she calls gramp and gran. Alice has a brother called Tim and a sister Alexandria. The two are younger than Alice. At her new school it is horrible for her. Nobody

After her dad, a professor, accepts a new teaching position, her family moves across the country. At first, “Alice” is excited to start a new life. However, she feels like an outcast at her new school. After meeting Beth, they both become best friends as they stated many similarities.

She thought this is what her mother wanted until her mother brings up that she will be moving in with a grandmother she hasn’t spoke to in years for the whole summer. The mother’s Point of View is also one that helped cause tension because she doesn’t see the big deal in moving to Costa Rica to finish research. She is sending her daughter to the grandmother even though they might not see eye to eye. This causes tension between the mother and daughter when it confuses the daughter because at one point her mother wants her to go out and make friends and at another she is sending her away for the summer. She isn’t only sending her to the grandmother she didn’t see eye to eye with but also the grandmother the girl hasn’t spoke to since she was six. This is bad timing because the girl is just opening up ready to make friends when her mother is already packing her bags for her. “Her words buzzed around me like a swarm of confused bees.” This proving how she was confused with her mothers’ actions but also hurt that she is moving again. “’New Mexico is worlds away from California. And what am I going to do for two whole months with someone I haven’t seen since I was six? That was half my life ago. She’s a stranger!’ I felt a sudden urge to bolt for the front door and run.” She was so aggravated with her mom that she has to contain her anger. “Mom was always bugging me to make friends, which I didn’t see the point of, considering we moved every few months.” Her mother has changed her mind from wanting her to get comfortable to now telling her about the move. This evidence shows how the two different point of Views cause tension when the mother just tells her out open they are moving without discussing it with the

It is also assumed that the act of telling a story can provide insight into past, present and future events (Espinoza, 1997).

This act can allow a client to find new meaning and understanding to their reality (Espinoza, 1997). Not only is a
