Life as I Used to See It

chapter 2

"Ok my little flute players! Have a great weekend! Remember to practice America the Beautiful! I really want to hear it on Monday!", my band teacher, Mrs. Andersen told us all. The bell rang and we all headed to the backpack area to pack up. Suddenly, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I flung around. "Ow! Watch your hair!", I heard. "My god Maddie! You scared me! I thought you were still putting up!", I answered. "I was! Then I finished!!", Maddie told me like I was some idiot. "So! Are we going to your house?", Maddie asked me. "Yeah! Sure! We can practice the songs! Ry can help us!" I replied. Maddie agreed and we walked to my place. Maddie asked if she could stay the night, since it was Friday. I told her she could. At that time, we were walking into my house. "Hello girls. Kendall, The family needs to have a talk. Maddie, why don't you help yourself to a snack! You can stay the night if you would like! Call your mom and tell her to drop by clothes!". I followed my mom into her room and left Maddie to call her mom. "Girls. We have an announcement!", my dad said seriously. "You guys will have a hard time with this.", my mom added. "But, we have decided to divorce.", my dad told us. "Yes. We love you both very much, but our love for each other has faded.", my mom explained. Ryleigh and I couldn't speak, just cry. "We are going to family court on Thursday to legally divorce. Okay??",Dad said. "Enjoy this time while you can, because after custody is settled, you will live with me and see Dad every weekend", my mom explained, tearing up. Ryleigh and I grabbed one tissue box each and ran out of the room. I found Maddie sitting on my bed, playing on her iPad. "Maddie!!", I yelled. "Kendall. I heard everything. I'm so so sorry. Mom is bringing my clothes and pajamas over. She called your mom and we've arranged for you to stay at our house for a while so Kenz and I can help you cope.", Maddie explained. I thanked her and cried into my pillow. "Maddie! Dial Charlotte! I need to hear her voice!!"
