I was arguing with my father as always, but this time it was different. I wanted to get the fuck out of here as fast as i could. I took my coat and left.
im walking down the street. I just want to leave.
My name is Olivia im 19, but i feel like im still an 8 year old. I miss the days i used to play with my mother, even though i just remember them like a dream. I don't fully remember those days. My mother died on my 9th birthday, so i never celebrate them. I remember she had to go somewhere and i cried because she wasn't gonna be at my birthday and made her hurry to be home..she had a car accident. My dad thinks that it's my fault, so do i. He stopped loving me after that day. My dad got married with Mariam when i became 11. She is kind to me and loves me unlike my dad. She is just like my mother. I feel like its almost her.
Nevermind i need to go home now.
I came back home and went straight to upstairs, where my room is, without saying a word. I threw myself on the bed and closed my eyes for a second.
I walked to my dad's room and saw some books on his desk. I started to browse the books. When i opened one of the books, a picture fell down from among the pages. It was my mom her face was blurred. Then i saw that a letter also fell down. I took the letter, opened it..but it was torn. I tried to piece together the torn letter but as i put the last piece i heard someone calling my name.. "OLIVIA!" It was Mariam, but i didn't care. I put the last piece and started reading the letter "Hey Olivia, its mom! I love you, honey. I miss you so much" My eyes start tearing up. "You need to find me as fast as you can. I need help. And Maria, she is not who you think she is. She-" Mariam took the letter from me. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING GIVE ME THE LETTER!"
"OLIVIA!" I open my eyes. That was a dream?! "Come downstairs!" My dad is calling me. I get out of the bed and got downstairs.
"What?!!" My father narrows his eyes and looks into my eyes as if he was saying don't talk to me like that. "How long have you known Savanah?" Wait what? Why is he even asking me that? He never cared about my friends. "Why?" I asked. "Just answer my fucking question!" She is a new girl at my school, but why does he care that much? She is actually so friendly and i like her so so much. "She's a new girl at my school" Tf is happening "Dont talk with her, dont look at her, dont even say hi to her! UNDERSTOOD?" Mariam touches dad's hand. "Honey, don't yell at her, calm down." What the fuck?! Why won't i talk to her?? I mean i will talk to her anyway, but why is dad THAT mad about this. "Okey" I say too calm that he is annoyed. "DONT TALK TO ME LIKE THAT!" WHATT?? I just said okey????? "Okey sir!" I say and run upstairs cuz i know that this made him even more mad.
I was going to enter my room but i saw my parent's room. I was looking at the door thinking about my dream. Should i serach for that book?
I realized i was being ridiculous and ran into my room. It was just a dream why would i enter my dad's room and make a mess..right? Im gonna call Zuri. Oh she is my besf friend by the way! We are friends since childhood i mean we were born at the same time so we are celebating our birthday at the same day! I mean we did till i turned 9, now we are celebrating only hers. Okay now i should stop yapping and call her.
"Hey guuurlll what's up?"
"The sky."
"So funny im dead rn. Haha. Bro you still use that joke?"
"Just kiddin' what are you doing ml?"
"I was just fighting with dad yk. Flying kicks, punches etc."
"Olivia, you cant beat your dad."
"I know im just joking. Are you coming to school tomorrow?"
"Nah i have a fever. Good luck with the math exam. Love you byeee!!"
UHHHH I KNEW IT. Why did she leave my like thaattt. Nevermind at least i have who to sit with.
Mariam enters my room "Hey honey, are you okey?" "Yeah, why shouldn't i be?" It's not that deep girl tf "Oh, because you-" "Yeah yeah fought with dad blah blah, Mariam i got used to it i dont get sad anymore." Should i tell her about my dream? "Mariam-" Nah i wont "Yes?" Ummm what now.. "Can i go out?" Actually i don't want to why did i ask that. UGHHH nevermind. "Yeah you can, i'll tell to your dad that you're sleeping, have fun hun!" Yeah she finally left.. Okay now what am i gonna do? Should i search for that book? Nah im being ridicious fr it was just a dream.. i guess? No i can't live like that i'll search for it.
I got in the room and started looking for books. WAIT I HEAR FOOT STEPS, NOT NOW! I hid under dad's desk and while hiding i saw something there. Is this a book? No. Then what the hell is this.
Someone entered the room. I think its dad? He took his coat and left. OKAY THAT WAS STRESSFULL. This is enough for today ima leave this hell.

"I didnt bump into you, you bumped into me! And im not a she." Hell nah why is he so handsome.. "Uhm, uh im sorry i just had a bad day"
"Well, i see. I'll pay for your phone don't worry, but i don't think that it's broken."
"No need for money. You can pay me buy buying me things till its the price of my phone you know?" Should i ask for his number. Just for my phone, right? Oh wait , i dont have a phone anymore..
"Okey. Give me your number i'll call you later"
"Actually i can't" WHYYYYY IS IT ALWAYS ME. WHY DID HE NEEDED TO BUMP INTO ME WHEN I WAS SEARCHING FOR MY PHONE COULDN'T HE BUMP A LITTLE LATER??
"Oh, yeah your phone. I mean.. i dont hurry for somewhere. I can buy you stuff right now, if you dont have plans. And what is your name? I need to know who i am spending money for, right?" DAMN I DIDNT EXPECT THAT

"Are you serious? I broke your phone and we are going to the funfair??"
" i haven't gone there for 10 years. This will be my first time."
"Why? Are you a sucker? Who won't go to funfair."
