Chapter 1
When you were little did you wear your own dress and wear makeup and all that? I didn't. My name is Allison, All for short. I live in a very small house. I have a dad but no one else.
"ALLISON" my dad yelled.
" Yes?!" I replied Oh no, I just yelled and he does NOT like yelling at all. It reminds him of the time he got arrested for putting my mom in the hospital three times. But the third time, it was to rough and she died.
"ALLISON!" he yelled. I ran to him.
"Yeah?" I asked.
"Did you just yell to me?" he asked me. Great. I took a breath
" Yeah." I sighed. There was silence. Whew first I thought he was going to ye-
" GO TO YOUR ROOM NOW!" he screamed.
I sighed.
" Excuse me? Girl you do that to me again...... you do not know how much trouble you'll be in." I was petrafighed. What kind of trouble?
'' Kay,'' I was kinda scared to even say that. I kept standing there.
" Get" he said. Maybe I should let him cool off before I ask him if I can go on a walk. 30 min? Yeah that sounds about right. I let those minutes pass. One by one.
"Dad?" I whisper.
" What Allison?" he asks."
Uh.. can I go on a walk?" I reply.
" Whatever but take Queen too. She's going wild out there."
" Kay" I retoted.
"QUEENY BEENY!! WANNA GO FOR A WALK????" Silence. "QUEENY?!? There you are girly, whatcha doin sillly goose?" Her ears percked up. " No Queen. We arn't going hunting." Her head sank. Goose is her favorite word. She always thinks we are going to go hunting. I go to pet her, but something REEKS! . I look at Queen. She has a little speck of a grin on her face. Great! What a suprise. I got inside to change my clothes.
"Allison, I thought you were going to walk her." I walk over to my dad.
"Really, you think I can walk the dog like this?" I slaped my face. I told myself you need to stop talking back to you dad!
"Allison you don't want to go there."
"Sorry, I need to go change."
" Stop. No your not gonna change."
" But dad I have dog stuff all over them."
"Allison please I'm not in a good mood. You do not have enough clothes to be able to change twenty-four-seven."
"But Dad I only change when I have to. You can buy me more clothes. It's not rocket science"
"Allison, I'm going to say this slowly. In.. case.. you.. haven't.. noticed.. we.. do.. not.. have.. alot.. of .. money.. to.. spend.." I was so upset. What does he think I'm an alien or something?
"Yes dad I get it. "
" Ok." I go upstairs to change forgetting my dad said no. I come back down with a white flower shirt on.
"Allison? Did you change shirts?" I look down at my shirt. No dog stuff...
"Um.. no." He sits up with a pillow. He laughs, then frowns.
