Chapter 1
Today Mum dumped my hero. My Dad. I have no explanation for it and I don't know how it all happened. Whenever I ask, I just get the same answer 'Not now darling. It is personal and you won't understand.' I am sick and tired of it. It is like I get treated like a small speck of dirt; kicked around from place to place. Now Mummy has been acting strange and is always on her phone either texting or laughing to this made person, I don't like it but I guess she just doesn't care about me any more.
I woke up. She was on her phone for the millionth time this week. Every night she is out with what she calls 'a work friend' but I don't think it is. Secretly, I think she is with this man from her work place... I sometimes turn to my own fantasy world and try to block her out however, Mum always seems to creep into them and she is with this person whom I have never heard of. I have disliked Mother for awhile now and I was usually found hanging around my Dad - Charlie. I am not even aloud to mention his name in our household, if I do, I get punished and sent to bed with no dinner. I am an emotional wreck and it is terrible having to face my friends tomorrow for school, the first day back when everyone wants the latest gossip on family life. I can't face them. I just can't. What am I going to do?
Don't Surrender, Surrender, Surrender,
Please Remember, Remember December.
We Were So In Love Back Then,
Now You're Listening To What They Say,
Don't Go That Way.
Remember, Remember, December,
Please Remember,
Don't Surrender.
Stay Strong.♥
