"Hi mom! I am back from school. Today was a great day. We had a football match and my team won. I am just so happy."
"Nice. Were you the captain?"
"Of course. I am always the captain.""The bracelet you ordered is here."
"Really? Where is it?"
"I put it in your room."
I went to my room and saw a box on the bed. I opened it and saw a beautiful bracelet. I picked it up and wore it. It was looking beautiful. I took out my phone and took a picture and posted it on Instagram.
I changed my clothes and now I was wearing a black shirt with blue pants.
I came out from the room and saw some sandwiches on the dining table.
Yum!
I picked one and started eating it. My mom came and said, "How are they?"
"Tasty. Oh and have you went to see dad?"
"No not yet. I am about to go now."
"Can I go mom? Please."
"No dear. That place is not for kids."
"But I am not a kid. Come on mom I am 17 now."
"Okay."
I finished my sandwich and took out a blue bag and put it on my shoulder.
We sat in the car and went to meet my dad. On the way I suddenly started to think about my past. I still remember what happened on April 18th.
My dad was a famous business man. He was a great man. Everyone loved him just because of his honesty and sincerity. But one night me and my family were sleeping when someone knocked the door of our house. Dad went and opened the door to see who it was this late in the night. It was about 2:00 am. I heard some noise so I went out to see who it was and I saw a police officer. And my dad was having handcuffs on his hands. My dad was accused of murdering an engineer. My mom told the police man that he hasn't murdered anyone but the police wouldn't even listen to her.My dad was a great man. He didn't even knew that man. He didn't killed that man. Of course the police took him to jail. I was only 10 back then so I got scared. That's why I get scared of people very easily cause I can't overcome my fear.
I looked up and saw that we were there. The jail is s dangerous place that's why my mom won't allow me to go with her. I haven't seen my dad for years.
I came out from the car and we both went in.
We sat in a room and waited for my dad.
After five minutes the door opened and I saw someone coming in. It was my dad. He was the same as he was back then.
He said, "Lily."
And then he looked at me and said, "Luna? Is that you?"
I stood up from the chair and said, "Yes dad. It's me Luna."
"Oh Luna! You have grown up."
I smiled and hugged him."It's been a while since I last time I saw you. I missed you dad."
We all sat down on chairs and I said, "So how's your life going dad?"
"It's really not as bad as you think it is. I get food and I have a place to sleep. What else do I need? Of course I miss you both a lot but I am a little used to this life."
"So when are you coming back home?" I asked.
"This is my home Luna. I can't get out of this place."
"What? But why? You didn't killed that person."
"I know I didn't. But a crime of murdering someone is a big one. The lawyers are trying to get me out from here but it's not as easy as you think. It's really hard to get out when you are accused of doing a big crime."
"I really want you to be back home so that we can be a family again."
My mom stood up and said, "We have to go now."
I stood up and hugged my dad again and went out of the room. After five minutes I saw my mom coming towards me. She said, "I have to go to the office but I will drop you off to home on the way."
I reached home and laid down on the bed. I felt good after meeting my dad. He was the same as he was 7 years ago. But he felt a little tired. He must be tired from living a life like that. Jail isn't a good place. I hope he can come back. I really miss him. Soon my eyes closed and I fell asleep.
