The
Christmas Plan
Chapter One
"We're moving!" I yelled. It was a month before
Christmas and my parents had just released the news that we were
moving to America.
"Yes, Jenessa. Europe is wonderful, but you're
father's job is transferring him to America," my mother
said. I didn't want to go.
"I'm not going. you can't make me." I wailed.
This would be horrible.
"We feel that it would be best for you as well as the
family. This job transfer includes a bigger pay. Also, America
has better teaching skills." My father said.
"Yeah, well America also has a higher teen pregnancy
rate."
"Jenessa Turnbeam! We are all moving. It's final.
We've signed the papers." I threw the pillow I was
holding against the wall and ran upstairs. I grabbed my phone and
called up Jennie, my best friend. I told her how we were moving.
I told her everything about it. She said she would convince her
mom to let me stay with them.
"It won't work." I told her. "We have to come
up with a plan to change my parent's minds. I can't just
leave you and Brad. I won't go without trying to stay. In
fact, I won't go. My plan will be perfect." I went to
bed the night with the worst feeling in my stomach ever possible.
I wished more then anything that I would be able to stay.

The
Christmas Plan
I think I'm going to start a
short story just about Christmas. ^ that up there would be the
title. The plot is right down there \/
14 year old Jennessa hopes Christmas 2012 will be completely
perfect. The problem? Her parents. They want to move her all the
way across the country the week before Christmas. That means
she'd have to leave her best friend and her boyfriend behind.
That just won't work in her book. She spends the month before
moving day convincing her parents otherwise. Can she make it?
