                          Aphmau's POV
                            *Flashback*
I was standing at my dresser when I heard screaming. It's not like I wasn't used to it. Mommy and daddy do it all the time. I guess it's normal. Although I wouldn't know, I'm only seven.

I walked downstairs to where I could see them but they couldn't see unless they were looking very intensely. I saw broken glasses of beer near the couch and tables. I just found out last week what alcohol does to you. It gets you drunk. That's what happens with daddy a lot. Sometimes mommy even has a glass of wine every now-on-then but only after a fight with daddy. So about twice a week. Just like every other fight daddy hopped in a car and drove somewhere.

My friend, Gene is two years older then me. He's nine and he says that my daddy goes to a bar or a strip club or something like that to waste all his money. My momma looked towards my direction. I ducked but she noticed me.

"Come here mihah." And so I did whilst tilting my head down. She put her head on my head while drinking a glass of wine. I grabbed her leg while she rubbed my head.(No idea how to spell Mihah)

"Where's daddy going?" I knew but I asked anyway.

"Don't worry he'll be back." She mumbled 'hopefully' thinking I didn't hear but I did.

"Go to bed, mihah he'll be back by morning and you have your first day of third grade tomorrow." She said taking another sip of wine.

"Okay momma." She smiled saying goodnight and I smiled in response.

~.~

It was morning and I got ready for the first day of third grade. I walked down stairs to grab the lunch my mom always packs me and looked around for daddy. He was no where to be found. He'll be back by morning.

~.~

I got home and saw daddy's truck in the drive. Yay! Daddy's back! The weird thing is that he has the living room tv, his bike, and many other stuff from our house in his truck.

I put my hand on the door handle to have it swung open with my dad carrying many cd's and a guitar case in one hand and in another he had his usual beer. He took a swig and threw the stuff in his back seat. Are we moving? Again? My mom came out to the doorway to find him starting the truck and about to drive off. She ran up to the side of the door.

"Don't do this! Think about Aphmau!" My mother screamed. As she said that he looked at her then me. He smiled at me and motioned for me to come over. He stepped out of the car and picked me up.

"She could just come with me then." He retorted.

"You know court would never allow that and you know I would never ever allow that!" My mom yelled all in his face grinding her teeth.

"I thought you wanted me in her life." He said then placed me down. He hugged me tight like it was our last hug. What are they doing? He rolled down the window to his truck and hopped in.

"I thought you wanted me in her life." He looked down and repeated and then started his truck and starting driving. Mom chased him down a little ways and yelled.

"You know that's not what I meant! You know I wanted both of us in her life!" She shouted at him as he drove. I realized what was happening. Gene told me how his parents walked away from him. He explained how they got a divorce and what it meant. My parents were separating.

*End flashback*
Laurence's POV
"Is that r-really how my p-parents s-separated? Is that w-why when we v-visited *sniff* my mom there was no f-father?" Aphmau cried. She was rubbing her eyes and just let it all out.

"I wouldn't know I didn't meet you till the 9th grade. But after all this you could ask Garroth. He's known you since y'all were two. Then you loved and he saw you again in the 9th grade."

"Oh, o-okay." She sniffled. She lifted her head up and immediately stopped crying. "That's right Garroth! Is he okay!?" She asked panicking.

I looked over the bushes and saw him still on the ground and to find Gene just now leaving the conversation and walking over to Garroth. He kicked him. What is he doing?

"Get up!" We heard him yell.

Zane looked towards us then at Garroth. He went back at forth looking in both directions. When he looked at Aphmau once she started shaking her hands in a no motion. He looked back at Garroth and then us. He keep a gaze at Garroth and then lunged for him. He leaped towards his direction with all his might.

"NO!" Me and Aphmau screamed at Zane but it was too late.

A/N sorry for getting this out late also I like leaving y'all on cliff hangers so deal with it😎

By-bye
