Daniel gave his answer and then we moved around the class until it got to me.

Mr Bell: well you'll have to come back after school to finish it cause I know you won't do it at home.
James: fine
Mr Bell: right what have you written?
James: er I wanna be a footballer when I'm older and the person who inspires me the most is my brother
Mr Bell: very good
The bell rang and it was time for next lesson. The day went as usual getting into trouble and being cheeky. No fights tho which was a plus. I went to Mr bells class to finish my work
Mr Bell: I was beginning to think you wouldn't turn up
James: ha ha
He put my book on the desk
James: pen?
He threw one on the desk
Mr Bell: keep it
James: ah thanks sir. You're so kind
Mr Bell: work
James: I didn't write down the questions
Sir wrote them on the board
Mr Bell: finish these and we'll talk about them after
- what do you wanna be when you grow up? Footballer
- who inspires you the most? My Brother
- what makes you sad? Memories
- if you could talk to one person again who would it be? My mum
- What do you struggle with the most? Emotions
James: done
Mr Bell: let me see
He looked at my work
Mr Bell: this is good but where are the reasons why?
James: i didn't know how to write it down
Mr Bell: What do you mean?
James: I know what I want to say but when I go to write it I forget
Mr Bell: right how about you tell me then I'll write it for you
James: okay. 1) So footballer because it's something I'm actually good at and I want to play in America. 2) My brother Cory because he looks out for us and cares for us even when he's got his own things to do. 3) Memories make me sad especially ones with my mum and what things my life were like when she was still here. 4) Mum because I miss her and the last words I said to her was that I hated her.
5) emotions because it's hard for me to recognise them and control them
Mr Bell: this is good. I'm sorry about your mum
James: it's fine nothing anyone can do so... can I go?
Mr Bell: yeah
I left and went to the chippy and headed over to Daniels house. I knocked on the door and Missy answered.
Missy: you alright Jay?
James: yeah er Daniel said I could come round. I brought dinner
Missy: ah how sweet. Come in
Missy let me in
James: hey nana
Nana: ah hiya love
James: I've missed you nana it's been a while
Nana: I know darling. How you been?
James: alright
Nana: how's things at home?
James: same as usual
Nana: I'm sorry about your mum
James: thanks nana. Anyways your looking well
Nana: thanks darling
Missy: dinner everyone
We went to get our plates and I gave nana hers
Nana: thank you darling
We finished eating and we started watching a film. I fell asleep upside down hanging off the sofa. After the film finished missy woke me up
Missy: Jay wake up
James: huh. What time is it?
Missy: er half eleven
James: ah shit I need to go
Missy: hey it's okay
James: No no you don't understand. H-he'll be mad
Missy: calm down for me okay. I'll walk you home and explain to your dad
James: o-okay
Missy walked me home and dad was passed out on the sofa. I went straight to bed.

Tuesday
Form
I saw Daniel and he didn't look like himself I knew something was wrong so I went to sit next to him
James: Hey Danny what's up?
Daniel: it's nothing I'm fine
James: come on you can tell me. When have we ever kept anything from each other
Daniel: okay if I tell you no one else can know. Promise
James: promise
Daniel: nana died yesterday
James: shit. You alright?
Daniel: I knew it was gonna happen soon but I was hoping we'd have a bit longer you know
James: she looked fine tho
Daniel: I know she has a heart attack or something
James: yeah. How's missy and Hayley?
Daniel: well missy's tryna hide her emotions like she normally does and Hayley is tryna process it. We have to act like nothing happened otherwise we'll go into care
James: don't worry I won't say a word
Daniel: thank you
Mr Bell walked in
Mr Bell: right class we're gonna write about what we wanna do when we're older. I want at least a paragraph
I just sat there staring into space.
Mr Bell: James do your work
I looked over at Daniel and saw that his head was down on the table
Mr Bell walked over to Daniel
Mr Bell: where's your work?
Daniel: obviously haven't done it
Mr Bell: maybe you'll find it easier to work in isolation
James: sir just leave it
Mr Bell: you can go too if you don't start your work
James: fine
Me and Daniel got up and went to isolation
Miss Keane: not you two as well
I sat in between Daniel and Hayley
James: Hayley
Hayley: yeah
James: I'm sorry about nana
Hayley: thanks
Miss Keane: Missy not in today?
Hayley: She's sick
Daniel: Period pains
I fell asleep until someone nudged my shoulder.
Daniel: come on let's go
We bunked off the rest of the day and I went over to Daniels.
James: you sure you don't mind if I come?
Daniel: nah nana loved you always said you were family
We went to where nana was getting cremated. It was missy, Hayley, nas, Daniel me and Miss Keane. We stood on the hill watching the smoke from the building
Daniel: is that smoke nana?
Missy: yep
James: I'm sorry guys

Wednesday
This morning I had rugby practice and it went well. I showered and got ready and decided to bunk my next lesson. I was walking around when I bumped into Daniel
Daniel: hey
James: hi
Daniel: the school knows
James: what how?
Daniel: Miss Keane
James: No way. So what now?
Daniel: we have a meeting with miss Carter
James: ah shit good luck
Daniel went and I carried on walking around. About half an hour later I saw
Hayley and Daniel get in a cab.
James: what's happening
Missy: they have to go into care
James: No
I stood in front of the car
James: you can't send them away. They belong here
Mrs Carter: There's no adult in the house
James: but Missy looked after them anyway so what's the difference
Mrs Carter: I'm sorry it's the law
James: bullshit
Mr Bell came out
Mr Bell: move away from the car
James: No
Mr Bell: James
Mr Bell came over and pulled me out the way. The car then drove off.
James: I fucking hate you.
I then turned to Missy.
James: why didn't you fight for them. They're family
Missy: I tried
James: Not fucking hard enough
I walked out of school and went home
