CHAPTER 1: FIRST SIGHT
My mother drove me to the airport with the windows rolled down. It was seventy-five degrees in Los Angeles, the sky a perfect, cloudless blue. I was wearing my favorite shirt,—an oversized, white button down—a tank top underneath, and a pair of high-waisted black shorts, which I was wearing as a farewell gesture. My carry-on item was a dark green parka and I’d change into jeans during my layover.
I absently fiddled with the charms on my necklaces as I tried to memorise that familiar way the heat felt on my skin. My eyes traced the landscape outside—the palm trees swaying lazily in the breeze, the endless sprawl of stucco houses and sun-bleached billboards, the sharp glint of glass and chrome in the distance. I wanted to hold onto it all: the golden haze of the afternoon, the way the city seemed to hum with life, and the bittersweet ache of leaving it behind.
In the Olympic Peninsula of northwest Washington State, a small town named Forks exists under a near-constant cover of clouds. It rains on this inconsequential town more than anywhere else in the United States. It was from this town and its gloomy, omnipresent shade that my mother escaped with me when I was five years old. It was in this town that I’d spend every summer and every other holiday. And it was where I’d spend the remaining years of high school.
I loved LA I loved the sun, the dry heat, and the sprawling chaos of the city. Even though living with my mom could be quite… challenging, I always felt like she needed me there. Unlike her, I didn’t actually hate Forks, though she loved to assume I did.
