Tori's P.o.v

I walked into my house and the scent of food filled my nostrils. I looked in the kitchen, and my mom was cooking.

"Where's dad?" I asked.

"Work"

" of course" I said. I ran up to my room. He was never here and he was never with me when I needed him.

I walked in my room and dropped my backpack in the mirror. I hated my body. I was fat, I'm 17 & I weighed about 170 pounds.

"Why do I have to be so ugly?" I Mumbled to myself. I sat on my bed and took out my homework.

Suddenly the doorbell rang. I knew that it was Niall.

I grunted to myself as I walked downstairs to get the door. Instead of Niall, my dad stood there.

"Uh hi" I said, I mean, it's not supposed to be awkward talking to your dad. But when you never talk to him. It would be awkward.

"Hey Sweetie. I need to talk to you" I looked at the time, 5:00 pm. He has time to talk before Niall gets here.

"Okayyy..." I said while sitting down at the kitchen table.

He told my mom to sit down to and soon we were all three at the table. He started to talk.

"Well, as you know I'm not always here for you guys" No Duh. Tell me something I don't know.

"I am terribly sorry, but tomorrow I am leaving for a trip for work that is 2 weeks.

My mom got upset and started to yell at him.

"Richard! You're never here! Me and Tori are always alone. Even When there is a school event!"

"Sarah.." He said trying to calm her down. "Let's talk about this alone"

"No!" She yelled again. "I will talk about this now. It's serious" she fought back.

"Tori go into your room!" My dad yelled in my face.

"But-"

"Now!"

I ran into my room and tears fell down my cheeks. All of the Pain I felt in years just suddenly was released from my body. I cried until my parents stopped fighting.

•During the fight•

When I ran In my room, I was curious about what my parents were saying so I was listening to them.

"You work everyday" Mom said.

"To support this house, to support our family" He argued.

"When have you ever supported this family? You're never there for either of us."

"Fine!" He yelled. " if you never think so then maybe I should just leave!" He ran outside and I heard the car engine go off. My dad had left.

•Back to present time•

I checked the time 5:45.

So my dad left and now I have to deal with my bully?

Yay. I thought sarcastically.
