After all the 'discussion' thingy, we went back home.
"Sophia Grace. Can we please talk for awhile?" Daddy sounds serious, and when he mentions my full name I know it is serious!
"Sure. What is it about?" I sit across him. Ashton and Eric went upstair straightaway.
"I know, it is hard for Ashton, you and Eric to face this. But, baby, even if your mommy and I separated, it doesn't mean she stopped being your mother. She will always be your mother. Respect her just like you used to."
I cannot see the look on daddy's face.
"How can I respect someone who broke my heart? Your heart?" I wipe my tears.
"You are the best man and she is lucky to have you. How can she not appreciate you for what you have done. For her? For this family? Dad..." I hug him tightly, I don't feel like letting go.
I can feel a small hand wrapped around me. And another big one. Eric and Ashton.
This warm hug is what we all need.
For whatever had happened, we have got to be together to face for our future.

"Yeah, I heard her parents got divorce." A voice behind me.
"I pity Sophia, it must be hard for her to face this." Another girl replies.

"Hey. I don't mean to interrupt but which Sophia you're talking about?" I ask. Shit! My heart is beating fast.
"Sophia Grace Wilson?" She looks at me and my heart stops! Poor, her!

Things aren't well now and I don't know to whom should I tell what I feel right now except for this journal.
No wonder she cried at the park the other day.. God! If only I knew she's facing a tough challenge..
I've been longing to talk to her. Oh God.. Give me strength and courage to talk to her. To go through all these bad times together..
I just love..HER!

I skipped school again today. My eyes are still puffy. I grab my phone and texted Kylie.

'Kylie could u pls tell me our works today? Thanks! xx SG'

Mom has gone now. I gotta learn how to live without her.
Alex..
His name has been running on my mind.
Gosh why am I catching feelings...
I am a girl boys won't notice.
It is very impossible for him to like me too.
Silly. Sophie! Stop dreaming about him having a major crush on you.
It won't happen.
He's a football star. Famous guy in school and you're just a nobody.
