Starlight

Christina POV

I have always known I was born to do something great but at the same time have always felt so small.
When I was 8 my best friend and I got swept up into the sky in a bouncy house. My mother screamed and started crying and the police and fire trucks were called but for the 15 minutes we were up there I felt like I was flying. The world seemed so small and for once I could see all of Willow lake. In that moment I felt so free, like the constraints of gravity would never hold me down.
Too bad reality comes too fast and in my bouncy house world the reality came sooner then I wanted. We crashed into the trees, I broke my arm and was stuck in a cast for the rest of the summer.
My hand in life unfortunately is like the ground, hard and unforgiving. Being stuck year round at Willow Lake was not the life my 8 year old brain imagined and part of me still hopes that my dreams will come true. But for now the 11 weeks I've worked towards all year have arrived in those dreaded words....Summer Camp.

Notes

I know it's boring so far but I promise it will get better :)
