Dear Moon,
It's all becoming a horrid routine.
6:30am wake up and get ready.
7am sneak out and don't get caught by mum.
Walk 2km to school on an empty stomach.
8:10am arrive at school early so the girls don't get me.
8:25am classes start, along with the constant taunting.
12pm recess, hiding or being beaten by the girls and their boyfriends.
2:55pm end of school, walk home after some more taunting.
3:20pm get home. Do chores.
4pm after finishing chores go upstairs do homework.
The time mum comes home is unpredictable.
11pm try to sleep.
It's become constant torture, and I can't break out of the loop.
Love Ashley
