Chapter One: The Shocking News
I was running as fast as I could. I was scared to death! What if it got me? There were so many questions running through my head are there any answers? I trip and fall, I look up into the creature's eyes, blood thirsty, ready to kill, just as the creature was about to murder me. I woke up with beads of sweat on my forehead. And felt like I couldn't breathe.
Gasping for breath I thought for a moment. Every night I have been having bad dreams. What do they mean? Is something like that going to happen in the future?
"Grace Scott! My mom screamed, "You're going to be late for soccer practice!"
"I'm coming" I yelled back. Cursing at my alarm clock for being borken. I sighed in frustration. I get out of bed and go to my bathroom, wash my face, and get dressed in my soccer uniform. I run to the kitchen to get some toast.
My little sister was there finishing her breakfast "Good morning sleepy head" she said while eating cereal.
"Moring to you too".
My mom came in the room but only before she went out to the car. Saying a quick good bye to Katina to shut the door.
I quickly got all my stuff together and raced out the house. My mom and I got into the car. I sat in the passenger seat while she was in the driver's spot, she turned the car on and backed out of the driveway.
"So sweetie" my mom said quietly."Well we had a family meeting when you were at your best friend's house and well me and your father are go-going to get divorced".
"What!?" I screamed.
My mom almost hit a car because of my sudden outburst."Grace don't do that!" She exclaimed. "We almost hit that car!"
"Sorry" I replied still thinking about what she said."But mom you and dad could never-" I never finished the sentence, it hurt so bad.
We went to soccer practice and said nothing the whole ride. I can't believe them I thought, they were perfect , but why?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Later that day~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I tried to talk to my dad that night but I couldn't work up the guts just yet. While I was puting my dishes in the dishwasher my brother came up to me."What are you up to?" Tomas said.
"Nothing" I replied.
"Sure" he said sarcastically. "But really whats up?"
"I found out mom and dad are getting divorced and I want to talk to dad about it."
"Oh yeah" he said like he was remembering something, "I heard something like that you and Kat are going with mom and I am going with dad, but that might not happen". I never thought of us being a way from each other . That would be weird!
So finally when I was alone in my parents room I approached to my dad "Dad I need to talk to you".
"Yes Gracie?" he replied.
"Mom told me that you guys are getting a divorce and I want to know why you are!" I quickly said.
"Come here sit down next to me", he said gesturing to the chair next to him."Well your mom and I have been getting into fights and we realized that we are not really meant to be together. Now, I know what your thinking we have been together a long time but that's because we have been putting it off. When we first got married we were really young and thought that it was love but right before your mom got pregnant we noticed that we weren't in love anymore. But then a baby showed up I knew that we couldn't leave each other with this baby and abortion was no option so we just started a family and before we knew it we had three kids. But now we know we put it off to long and it's way over due."
I didn't realized what just happened but before I knew it I was weeping and running to my room I slammed it shut and jumped on my bed and cried and cried and cried until there were no more tears.
After a while I fell asleep.
