*Bell rings, end of day*

I rush out of class, trying to squeeze past the large crowd of people. Why do people walk so slow? Don't they understand that i'm in a hurry?

Finally i get past them and leave the school.

I cross the road and run down Shelly Avenue until i find the bus stop, Moms there and so is Kye. Mom looks sad. Even worse than this morning. I rush across the road and hug mom tightly.

'Whats up Mom?' i ask cuddling her.

'We don't have any money, Tom took it all,  I don't know how were going to get there' She says crying, i feel the wet tears dropping onto my shoulder. Oh no... Poor mom.

'Oh What are we going to do?' I ask wrapping moms black hair around my fingers.

'I don't know Hazel, We've phoned everyone, They're too busy' Kye whispers in my ear and joins in the hug. I just remembered! I have £20 left in my pocket from my birthday last week!

'Iv got £20 Mom! From my birthday last week!' I shout waving the £20note in the air, mom looks happier.

'Are you sure hazel? I really don't want to take your money..'

'Of course! We have to get there else we'll have no where to live' I shout, We all gather round and hug.

The bus comes round the corner and we step on.

'2 adults and a child please' Mom says handing over the £20 note and receiving the change and the bus ticket.

We all sit down, I go to the back though, My head leaning against the window. The bus starts to move and everything is quiet around me. My mom glances at me a couple of times from the front but that's it.

I look out of the window and its raining. Droplets of water smashing against the window. Why does it have to rain? Today is not the day! I guess its like that saying 'To find a rainbow you have to put up with the rain' but where is the rainbow? 

The bus stops and we walk off the bus.

'Hazel were going to have chippy today, sorry we don't have enough money for anything else, we only have £14. Don't worry my income support comes in next week' She says smiling as we walk up an unknown road.

This is a lot different to Birmingham. Cheshire has a lot of countrysides and its much fresher, the scent of cow poo floods my nose. Ew.. I guess i have to put up with it from now on.

We arrive at the chippy, its very small much different to the Birmingham fish and chips shops, In Birmingham they're much packed and lots of teenagers hang around them. This one is bare.

'Hello May i help you?' A lady says with a northern accent. Mom clears her throat.

'A large cone of chips please' She asks politely. The lady digs up aloud of chips and wraps them up in greece paper.

'Here you go, £3.50 please' She smiles. Mom hands over the money and we walk away. 

We walk down the street, digging into the soft chips, yum these are lush! We all finish the cone of chips, Still hungry and thirsty. 

I hear Mom say 'We are here' She stops, picking out the keys from her pocket and jangling them in her hand. Me and Kye look up at the House, Astonished.
