My Life Story - Part 3

After the great news about being sponsored, and MTV contract, and my moms health being fairly good for living with cancer for 2 and a half months, I made a huge life changing decision. I was going to church later that night and It was going to be a magical night for me and one other friend. I took to church that night with 3 big surprises on my agenda and Allison was going to be on the end of them. When I arrived at church that night, I found the love of my life. Allison was sitting in one of the lobby chairs by herself writing and I walked up behind her and kissed her cheek and hugged her and told her the news. I told her first that I was being sponsored by a clothing company in So-Cal and she was very happy. Then I told her that MTV contacted me and I was going to be under contract with them for about 4-6 months and making very good money and she blew up with joy. Then I reached into my pocket and pulled out a ring and asked her to marry me. She was speechless. After she said yes, she ran to her best friend and they did what girls do. They talked about it and her best friend was so happy for her that she hunted me down and hugged the daylights out of me. Finally, I was living life. Engaged to be married and my dreams were coming true. Or so I thought. We were living together going from her house to my house and always going out to do romantic couples things. I was working by day with my skate team and she was a waitress at Beef-O-Brady's. At night we were the perfect couple. Laying on the couch watching movies, cuddling up in bed and falling asleep together. I would wake up in the morning and make her breakfast and coffee then take out to the streets for work with the skate team. Allison took a week long trip to Daytona Beach for a church trip and I stayed home to work and when she got home, we ran into trouble. She was falling out of love with me and my life was going from great to the bottom of the pile again. She called off the engagement in no less than a month and she had left town to go to college. I was left at home alone with 2 sisters, a skate team, Amber was still a good friend and continued to hang out, and a mother who's cancer was beginning to get the best of her. Life was getting bad for me and was only going to get worse from there.
