Chapter 8.

I clicked a whole bunch of times and agreed to the terms of service and all that jazz for about 10 minutes. Finally, the game was installed. I made my character. User-name: Brynn1. I made her look like me. Brown straight hair, medium weight and height, light brown eyes, skinny jeans and a regular shirt. I grabbed the letter and reread it. Okay so how do I play this? Is there a tutorial thing?

After half an hour I figured out all the tricks and exactly how to play this virtual video game. Now, all I need to do is find my father. Ha, I love the sound of that. It makes me feel all adventurie.

"Get off that computer and get ready to go to sleep!" I heard Amanda calling from the living room.

"Oh Hush. I'm just trying to find my dad because you know..., I still care about him! You guys don't even care, so just leave me alone!" I heard Amanda's footsteps come closer. She's at the doorway of the room. Great!

"Look, he ruined our lives. He cheated on your own mom and your gonna keep talking to him?! I didn't want to talk to him after what happened a few years ago. Especially not now. Have you seen how freaakin' spoiled you are by him!?" She's yelling and getting mad. I'm not even spoiled by him. Only if you call one birthday present and one Christmas present by him being spoiled... Then apparently I am so freakin' spoiled! Because he hardly ever sends me any letters or tries to ever call. He use to, but that was one or two years from moving out. It's been like eight years.

"I'm not spoiled Amanda! You get presents, too. I'm not the only one. Just because you don't care now, doesn't mean he doesn't try to make an effort to care. He still cares, am I the only one who can see that!" I argued.

"You know what..." I trailed off. What I was about to say would ruin so many things and I would feel guilty. I shut my mouth. "Whatever. Just, I'm done with this." I stormed off into my room and picked out my clothes for school tomorrow. I took out clothes from one of my moving boxes and head into the bathroom. I decide to shower because maybe it might just relax me.

After an hour, I'm back in my room about to fall sleep. I check my phone. 11:06 pm. It's late. I drift off to sleep quietly with still bad thoughts.

I was just about to leave the house, when suddenly this shadow caught my eye. It was coming from the kitchen. I walked over to the kitchen and I realized mom had to have done something different to the house because this looks different from yesterday. It kinda looks like our old house. Why did she want to decorate it like that? I don't want those ugly memories. I had thought Amanda already left for the bus. Wasn't mom gone also? I heard a whisper. I decided not to go in. I hid behind the wall. It's a male voice. I take a peek into the dining room. Nothing, but a big fat shadow. It's not mom or Amanda

I hear the voice! "Num, Num. Yum! Chum, Nyum." What! Is! That! It's a monster! I saw it! It's a monster. Keep calm,Brynn. It's just a big, fat, giant monster eating all you food in the kitchen. Yeah, your mom will probably blame it on you, but i guess it's better then being eaten by this hungry monster. There goes my conscience.

I tip-toe to the other side of the wall to get a better look at this creature. Slow. Oh no, the door I was next to started to creek and squeak. Darn door. I have a bigger problem. The monster creature heard me. Great!

"Num, Yum. Food Yum." At least learn how to speak, I thought.

I'm going to be late for school and no one is going to believe my lame excuse. Excuse: there was this giant monster trying to eat all my food in the house. I tried to see what it was, but it almost ate me... Well the last part isn't true...yet, for all I know.
