~Home~

I walked home from the beach, I wondered where Jj went off too and I hope he's okay, I guess that's not my problem anymore.

I walk up the steps and open the door where my mum and dad and sitting. My mum turns around and sees me.

M: well look who showed up. Where have you been?

My dad stands up and sighs in relief. Usually I tell him where I'm going but I guess I haven't been home in and extra long time this time.

K: I was at the chateau.

She laughs at me.

M: well of course that makes complete sense. You were at the chateau.

She says sarcastically.

K: John b's back, we were trying to help him.

M: we know, I heard it on the news. I heard he's arrested for murder too.

K: he didn't do it mom.

M: of course he didn't.

K: oh my god, mom you know him.

M: I also know the Cameron's. They wouldn't do this either.

K: should of known you were one of them.

M: one of them!

K: yeah of course you take their side.

M: Jesus you treat me like shit

K: you treat me like shit. You don't trust me and you never have.

M: cause all you do is lie.

K: when have I lied to you.

M: everything you do is for those pogues, those boys you grew up with. You do everything for them.

K: it's about the boys

M: it's always about the boys. Your putting these boys above everything else. We could have gave you the future.

K: I didn't want what you were handing off to me.

M: because you keep following these boys.

K: god you are so worried I'm gonna sleep with a pogue like you did!

I shouted back at her.

K: well guess what? I already did.

My dad walks over to my mother.

D: let me handle this.

M: no, no! No I'm done.

She pushes my dad away and walks towards me, all of a sudden I feel a ice cold connection to my left cheek. The coldness ended and a stinging sensation began to spread. Now I knew my mom and I won't close, but slapping me in the face. Not in a million years would I believe my own mother would physically hurt me. And for my dad to just stand there shocked.

M: I don't think you have any idea how hard we have worked to try and give you opportunities that other kids don't have! Why can't you be normal like your brother?

I finally catch my breath and am able to speak.

K: how many times do I have to tell you I'm a pogue, I don't want to be in a upper class, posh place I don't belong to. I don't care about those things.

M: yes and you should!

K: well I'm sorry I don't! Look I'm a pogue and I always will be! This is why I hate coming back here!

M: I hate you coming back here!

That hit me hard in the chest. I guess she really did hate me.

M: you wanna live like a pogue?

She walked closer to me and I thought she'd hit me again.

M: let me show you what that's like.

She picked up my basket of clothes and through it off the balcony.

M: go live like a fricken pogue!

She pointed out of the house. I knew I was never here, but I never thought she'd kick me out. Having no place to fall back on scared me.

M: get your ass out of my house!

I looked at my dad and he stood their silently. In the end, I thought my dad would at least stick up for me.

Tears trickled down my face as I bit the inside of my cheek to stop me from crying, I slowly nodded and looked away from him.

I lifted my head and walked outside, picking up all my clothes and walking to my car. Guess this is wear I'll be sleeping for a while.
