I lay awake, looking at my ceiling. It was a long night and I was waiting for my mum to get home, it is currently 11:35.. What is she doing, what job keeps her at this time.

I could feel my eyes getting drooper and drooper, and all of a sudden I felt my eyes closed.

There was a load knock at the door, waking me from my slumber, I quickly hopes of my bed, slipping on my slippers and grabbing the closest object, I looked at it, my hairbrush, nahh, I set it back down and pick up my photo frame, I quietly make my way down stair, and opening the door slowly. It was the police, I quickly the photo frame on the windowsill, and looked at the police woman and man standing in front of me.

"Sophia Mcfarlane?" The man spoke
"Yes"
"I am police officer Stevens and this is officer McDonald" he said
"We have some bad news, regarding your mother" officer McDonald spoke,
"She was involved in a collision, we presume it was a drunk driver, who hit her, and she was dead in seconds" officer Stevens spoke, as they took their hats off.
That moment, the world fell apart, it felt like the world was moving slower, I just nodded and closed the door. I was speechless, I wanted to scream but my lungs wouldn't let me, there was no sound coming out, finally i fell to my knees and screamed and cried.

I woke up, sweating and tears running down my face, I panicked, and ran through to my mums room, and there she was, lying in her double bed. 2:56 was written on the alarm clock. I just snuck into my mums bed and fell asleep.

*BEEEEEP* *BEEEEEEEP*

That my friend is the sound of hell, the alarm clock it had finally struck 6:45. Mum shut it off before ripping the blankets of me, I screamed and tried to pull them back, but failed. So I decided to get up, and head to the shower before school. I was eating my breakfast, when I realised the time 8:03 the bus is going to be here in 2 minutes, I quickly grab my bag and sprint as fast as I could, I barley made it, and collapse on the seat next to Marcus, my head laying on his shoulder, he smelt amazing, in a non creepy way.

"Your late today" Marcus said, laying his head on mine.

"Yeah, I was slow taking a shower and eating my breakfast" I said, but the truth was, I missed my mum and I just wanted to be spending every minute I could with her, I know she'll come home and she's only working, but I mean she's working aaaaaallllllll the time.

"Where's Lucas?" I said, Marcus lifted his head up and pointed. I followed his direction to be met with Lucas kissing someone but not peaks I mean full of eating each other faces off. I didn't know why, but my heart sank and hit the floor, a wave of jealousy waved over me.
