After the sensational ordeal I had I make my way home, well to see my mum really so she knows I'm alive, but I doubt she cares really what I've been up to.

It's a short walk from Bailey's to my house, but I take the time to think about everything and like how I would never let Bailey anywhere near my house, I couldn't have him seeing this. Seeing the mess I live with.

The disparity I feel when I walk into my house is indescribable, mum and Chris passed out on the sofa with about 100 cans beside them, I can smell the significant scent of drugs in the air, it slowly starts to water my eyes.

I then hear a faint groan coming from the sofa and then a slight yawn, it's mum waking up from her sleep.

"Heeeyyyy Erika" she yawns

"Mum, what have you done?!" I say panicked waving my arms around at the state of the house

"Chris had some friends over, lots of fun" she winks at me

"Well now look mum, look what you've done"

I can feel my eyes tearing up as I look round.

"I knew you would be like this!" She yells

"I can't live like this everyday mum!"

"Then don't!!, I don't need you"

And those words break my heart, I frantically run back out the house not looking back once.

I run to the park and sit on the bench and feel the tears run down my cheeks, I put my head down with my arms as a support and try to calm myself down.

What will I do?! Where will I go? Why is everything like this?

Questions start erupting in my head, screaming for answers that I don't know.

I grab my phone out of my pocket and ring the only person I know that helps me.

"Hey Erika" he answers

"Um could you come to the park?" I say trying to hide the sadness in my voice

"What's wrong?! What's happened?!" He sounds panicked

"See you soon" I sniff

I then hang up the phone knowing he will be on his way shortly, I wait, wait for the only person on this earth that makes me happy, that makes me feel alive again.

There he is, he appears from the distance, and I feel my body start to come alive again, he runs toward me and takes me into his embrace and kisses my hair and slowly rocks me.
