It was in the summer of 2019 that I paid a visit to my aunt. She's my mom's sister and I haven't seen her for 17 years. The last time I got to see her was when I was about 6 years old and that was because I had to visit with my mom.We live in Virginia while they live in Manhattan.

So it's about an 8-hour drive apart and we were too busy to see one another, so that was why we did not meet. But now that I'm growing, and I'm 23 years of age I have to see her. I've missed my aunt Maggie so much.
