My mother got me this journal, she said it would "relieve stress". Whatever that means. She says that since I don't like talking to her about my emotions that this would be a good place to vent out. But I don't need this journal when I have my mom to talk with.

Okay let me back track.

You're probably confused. And my life is a bit confusing. So i'm going to try and explain it to you the best I can.

See I have 2 moms.

You're probably like, "oh that's normal, many people have two moms."

And i guess it is normal

But see my mother aka miranda is my blood mother.

She has the same light brown eyes, the same curly light brown hair, the same olive skin. But that's where the similarities end. My mom isn't the nicest person. Well that's an understatement. She is the WORST person ever. She treats me like scum. I guess she didn't want a kid.

My dad got so sick and tired of my mom treating me so badly. He decided to leave her.

She cried for days. Her face was all messed up from all the botox she has gotten. So when she cried she looked really weird.

My dad and her got a divorce. But he ended up marrying another person, my mom or stepmom legally. Hermione, Her name says it all. She is the most unique person in the whole world. And the prettiest too. She's naturally beautiful, unlike my mother who got plastic surgery. She has the most beautiful blue eyes and her long blond hair goes down to her waist, she has a fair complexion. She could be a model if she wasnt so hooked on being an artist. My mom Hermione treats me like an angel. When I met her I thought she would be mean like the stepmother in Cinderella, but boy was I wrong. Hermione or 'Mione as she likes people call her is so nice. She's super smart because she graduated high school when she was 15! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT... 15! 'Mione has always been there for me since my real mom never was, she is always busy working and only sends me a christmas and birthday gift. Which are usually always very cheap.

'Mione however is always happy to be with me. She takes me shopping and to the salon to get our hair and nails done. She is so fun. I mean i have been living with her since i was only 6. So she is more of a mom to me than my real mom is. My life was so good. I had the greatest step mom. A dad who loved me. Except my mother but that's it. And I had my best friend lily.

But then my dad died in a car crash. I was devastated and so was 'mione.

I had to go to court because my mother and 'mione were fighting over who got custody over me. I was only 9. The judge asked me who I wanted to live with. I said 'mione obviously. But they said that i had to go over to my mothers house at least 2 days a week. I agreed at least I got to spend more time with 'mione than with that ugly evil witch.

And that brings me to know. I am 14 turning 15 in 4 days. It's been just me and 'mione for the past 6 years. But we are used to it. I'm in my room right now. I'm supposed to be packing my stuff so i can bring it to my mothers house. I saw this in my bag and I thought I would at least try writing in it.

"GRACE HURRY UP COME ON YOU NEED TO EAT BREAKFAST!"

"COMING MOM!"

I grabbed everything else I would need for the ugly bats house, and walked towards the kitchen.

"Okay kiddo you have everything you need to go to your moms house?"

I couldn't believe

"MOM I TOLD YOU ALREADY! YOU'RE MY MOM! SHE'S AN UGLY BAT! SHE MAY HAVE GIVEN BIRTH TO ME BUT SHE ISN'T MY MOM!"

"Okay okay kiddo it's fine. Okay do you have everything you need for the ugly bats house?"
