Jamie's diary entry #13

Ugh, can you believe Mr. frikson yelled at me for getting some tissues during a test, he says that he caught me looking on Donald' s paper, come on he is 19 in the 10th grade. If I wanted to cheat off of someone it would be Quinton, MVP of the basketball team and honor roll student . Quinton is a major hottie, but he won't notice a girl like me, because I don't look like the type he would go for . I feel like I'm not good enough for him or anyone else .

Like my mom says

"It's just your hormones, you are a beautiful gal keep your head up" well, she said that once before she went crazy and got hooked on drugs, now she barely comes home and when she does she just yells and goes to sleep, as for my dad he died serving for our country. I miss him like everyday, I even pray that he would come back and takes me out to DQ like he used to, so we can just talk and laugh. But of course that would never happen though, once my mom caught me praying and slapped me she was high of course, but she said something that still haunts me to this day

" Stop all this praying it's worth nothing, God will do nothing for you or me. Your dad is dead and if you keep praying like this you will be too."

I just sat there stunned and watched as she left my room, I was so fumed "how could she say that?" She has no heart" but, I still love my mother she is all I got.

End of entry #13

"And we danced all night to the best song ever- "

"Hello, Who's this?"

"Zach, from science. Who is this?" I could here him giggle a little on the other line.

"Your mom. But, Zach-ster how's it going home slice?" I'm such a nerd.

"Your such a loser, omg I don't know why we are even talking on the phone" Sounding feminine and funny.

"Aye, why'd you call?"

"Don't you want to know?"

"...Zach."

"Okay, well there is this party on Friday-"

"Tomorrow" Cutting him off.

"Let me finish. So, we both like parties, we both like to dance and stuff. So, like I was just wondering, just wondering if you would like to go with me?" I could hear nervousness in his voice, then it hit me someone is asking ME to a party.

"Of course, I would love too"

"Whoa, great I will text you later about the info I have to go feed my little sis."

"Alright, Byeee."

"Byeeeee" Chuckling he hung up.

Now, what to do with my boring life. I thought and thought until, I heard the front door open. Here we go again, I locked my room door and sat in my bed and looked at the door counting the second it's took for her to come banging on my door.

"1,2,3,4,5,6,7-"

"JAMIE OPEN THIS DOOR NOW. NOW, NOW, NOW." Then, I heard sniffling , which broke my heart but the last time I fell for that I got slapped. So, I climbed on my bed and drifted to sleep ignoring my loud mother.
