Jimmy's Trip

            "Wait!" was the first word that came to Jimmy's mind when he found out about the new life ahead of him. This is his story.
             Jimmy was born and raised in the country. His mother died when he was young so it was just Jimmy and his dad. At school Jimmy was always top of the class and always got his work handed in on time. His father ran a small business from home selling bathroom and kitchen products. Since Jimmy knew his dad didn't make much out of the business he never asked for anything he didn't need and always supported his father's new ideas. Jimmy knew deep down that his father's business was going down the drain even though he would never say anything.
             One morning the phone rang and Jimmy answered. It was a call Jimmy knew was coming but had not been looking forward to. He thought he should be happy but it was too much for him. He wanted to tell his father how he felt and that he wanted to stay in the country. But his father was thrilled and Jimmy couldn't hurt him like that. His dad had been offered a job with a high profile city company. After applying for work with them many times he had finally worked his way to the top of the waiting list and was in.
             This would mean leaving the small country town and moving onto a small block in a busy city. Although this seemed like the end to Jimmy he never complained even when his father asked him if he was okay with it. Jimmy knew he would be moving anyway so he figured there was no reason to hurt his father's feelings by telling him the truth. Still Jimmy didn't want to go.
             The trip from the country down to the city was a long and tiring journey. In no time at all Jimmy found himself unpacking his belongings in a small white unfamiliar room with one little window through which all he could see was the neighbours outside wall. As the move had come at the start of the summer holidays Jimmy had the couple of months to settle in and around the neighbourhood and get to know the area before he had to deal with the thought of going to school.
