Ash was walking passed the hallway,trying to get stuff so that he could pack.Then when passed his mum and dads room,Ash heard mum and dad talking. So he put his head in the door,heard them trying to move closer to Ash.Ash was horrified of what he heard,so much that he decided to not to go. when he told his parents they were shocked because he had been talking about going to college since Ash was 14! Then they knew that Ash overheard them. They tried to cheer Ash up by bringing him to the new owners. Ash was not sure but it was his last chance to convince his parents,so Ash and his family went to see the new owners. Ash knocked and the new owners opened the door. The new owner,Tara,asked them if they want to come in for tea, and they did. After a bit a child called May came and asked Ash to play. Ash said yes and,after a bit,Ash found out that may was also sad to leave her home. So Ash decided to cheer May up and he did make her cheer up. After Ash left he knew that it was best to go to college. After he said his goodbyes to his home and to Tara,May and Ash left with his family to go to college.
