It had been a week since the laptop incident with my mum and today was the perfect day to find out really what she's been up to, as I have the house to myself. mum was showing these old hags around a bungalow,dad was out playing golf with his friend dave and esta was at brownies.

I saw the laptop waiting patiently on the table ready for someone to press the power button as turn it to life. so I did exactly that... I went on mums computer history to find out exactly what she'd been doing and when I saw it. I couldn't believe it...

Tears streamed down my face and was filling up in my eyeballs so much so that I couldn't even see the computer screen my eyes were so blury. my heart was pounding so hard it felt that someone was aggressively punching me over and over again until I could no longer breathe. I ran to the kitchen sink and turned on the tap full power. I cupped my hands and allowed the water to leave a freezing puddle in my palms to them throw on my face. I then walked back over to the laptop and there it was in big,bold,black formal writing "your divorce has been accepted." I sobbed for a few minutes then shut down my mums emails. my perfect life was being slowly crushed. but why didn't my parents tell me?
