Cries.Screams.Silence.The noise echoed around before I could percieve what was going on.I had just gotten home from school and my mother was on the floor,weeping at my father's feet.A woman with brunette hair and piercing blue eyes stood beside him,one hand above her stomach and the other fiddling with the string of pearls on her neck.A look of disgust was displayed across her face.My father ran a hand through his hair,sighing down at my mother.

What was going on?Who was the woman?What was she doing here?

From behind the doorframe,I must have made a noise,for everyone turned in my direction.

"Sweetheart.."my father began,he wore a look of sympathy.The woman shot daggers in my direction as she walked past me and out of the front door.

"CHARLOTTE WAIT!"my father called.So her name was Charlotte.I recognised the name.Mother would tell me he was with her for business-related meetings when I used to ask where he was at dinner time.But this couldn't be right.Why was she in our house?And why was mother crying hysterically?

Walking towards me,my father bent down so he was at my height,"Aurora hunny,daddy has to go for a while but I promise I'll be back,I love you."

And with that,he left.
