Chloe is an unusual girl but not as much as her extremist mother. Chloe tries to find her own way but her mother keeps pulling her further and further away from the outside world. Trapped in her own misery Chloe decides to write a diary in the hope that one day when she's free of this woman she can look back on it and know that she is a better person because of it. That is if she survives long enough.
Dear Diary;
So my mom and I just got into a huge fight again and I don't know what to do!!! she's so infuriating the way she always babbles on about how god knows everything. It’s like what if I don't believe in god? What if I think it’s all a conspiracy, then how'll she act?
I'm in my closet again. I have kind of gotten used to it over time now with all the pictures of god and Jesus. the only problem is that I always feel like I'm being watched you know. It’s kind of eerie in here. it gives you time to think. Mum doesn't know I keep a diary in here hidden under a poster of Mary holding Jesus. It helps me let off steam you know.
I probably won't get out of here until tomorrow morning before school starts. I hope no one’s changed over the summer. I mean I hope they changed a little after last year. But we don't need to talk about that. It's one of those things we don't talk about.
School was hard last year the girls and boys were nice I mean, considerate but never did they talk to me. I hope that changes. I'm not strange, I'm just..... Different. My mom’s strange though. She's really strange. She mutters stuff under her breath about me like I was born under sin or something I don't really listen to my old bat of a mother. She thinks she knows best but really she doesn't know anything.
Mum has a very willowy Shape with straight black hair and a slender face. She wears long dresses that cover everything and she wears all these crosses and gloves and everything. When I was younger I always thought I'd end up like her but I don't think I would last that long. I don't even know how old she is! last year I asked her when her birthday is and she said that she forgot. Who forgets their own birthday?
Sometimes I think she's going around the bend but then I don't say anything because she would kill me if I did.
I really hope things change this year. I think we all need a little bit of change.
Love
Chloe
