As Christina sat in class that day someone passed a note to her. Normally she didnt take notice to these but recently the class found out about sarah and well the comments started to come through. Daily she would hear things like "gay freak" or "gays burn in hell" which isnt the most pleasant of experiences. Not only that cirtain people were starting to make comments like "youve put on weight" and "im suprised your girl wants you with a body like that"  the worst one however was "oh my god Christina are you pregnant? No oh well im suprised because i didnt know people could get that big".

After a day of this Christina walked home to be met with a screaming match in the kitchen. She walked upstairs just to get messages like "fat pig" and "youll be bigger than a cow soon". She sat on her bed and cried.

Her phone buzzed with a text from sarah. "hey love just checking in on you.. How bad was it today?" she started to type and thats when she heard her mother scream "THATS IT WERE GETTING A DIVORCE" which was promptly followed by the sound of the kitchen door and the front door being slammed shut and a car driving away.

Christina put her phone down now devastated and scared. She started to silently sob while her phone vibrated next to her. Her father who was fighting his tears quickly came upstairs and sat with her. "it will be ok" he whispered softly in her ear. She found those words comforting and she calmed down slightly.
