Guarded

I remember that day the clearest. Waking up to my room, looking around before realizing it was the day I both dreaded to come and still couldn’t wait for. It wasn’t anything special, just time my family had set aside to spend together. This particular day was exciting, but I can honestly look back on that now and wish that this wasn’t the case. I remember how we greeted one another with a hug. We were so excited about our plans. While we didn’t always get along, we still loved these days we had together.
