Chapter Twenty One

Jennifer's P.O.V

Everyone stood in a line along home plate. They all looked down at the ground. I handed them the scrapbook then started hugging them.

Today we were leaving. I was leaving right now. No matter how much I resisted, I had to go. I had to leave my friends behind. I had to leave everything I once knew behind. Now I'm just going back to Minnesota. I'm going to have to go to Eden Hall. I'm going to have to leave the life I once knew behind. I felt dizzy and weak. I felt nauseous and uneasy. I felt like the world had been flipped upside down. My stomach felt like it was going to fall out from my butt. My heart beat was faster then a cheetah and my legs were shaking. My eyes were watery, my mouth was dry.

I started giving everyone hugs. My last hug was Benny.

"You're going places Rodriguez."

"I sure hope so Mendoza."

"Actually it's Wells."

"Whatever."

Benny pulled me into a bear hug. His arms wrapped tight around me as I buried my face into his chest, inhaling his scent, just one last time. We pulled away and I looked at everyone.

Benny handed me one of his sweatshirts with his name on it. I smiled and looked at everyone before a honk was heard.

"Well I guess this is goodbye."

"Yeah."

"I'm going to miss this place. I'm going to miss y'all." and with that, I walked off into the sunset and out of the sandlot... wondering what the rest of '62 has in store for me.

Okay okay I know this is short but I'm just swamped with homework so I'm only going to be able to upload on the weekends now:(

I'm so sorry. I hope y'all understand❤️
