Jasmine unlocked the front door, "Hey mom we are back!" she called. "Hey Jazzy, im in the kitchen!" she called back. I followed her into the kitchen and peered around the door, a lady with short bobbed red hair and green eyes was dancing around the kitchen to Katy Perry. I smiled "hey Mrs O'Donnell" I said as she span round, "why if it isn't Violet, I haven't seen you round here for ages" she said smiling at me. "Yeah sorry my bad been super busy" I said smiling back at her. "Mom you haven't forgotten she's staying for a few days have you?" Jaz asked as her mom laughed. "No way sweetie, Im sorry about your nan Violet" she said handing us a plate of cookies.
"Come on lets put your stuff in my room then we can go see Marigold and daffodil" she said smiling. They were her two rabbits, they were so cute. "Ok then!" I said following her up to her room and putting my bag on the floor inside. We headed into the garden and towards the shed at the end of her garden, inside there were two big rabbit hutches each with a fluffy ball of fur sitting in. I scooped one up in my arms as we placed them outside on the lawn with some treats, "they are so cute" I said smiling at them. "They are aren't they bless them, so what's the deal with Adam?" she asked.
"I don't know, honestly I really want to get to know him but my mom thinks I'll get too attached and want to live with him. We also came to the decision that we aren't going to tell people, part of me still cant believe it" I said. "Well we have the concert next week, are you coming to mine to get ready?" she asked. "Can do if you like, its going to be epic!" I said, "Its the day after your nans funeral isn't it?" she questioned as I nodded in reply. "Yeah if mom actually comes back that is" I said, "she will you nut she just need some time to herself I imagine" Jasmine replied.
4 days later....
My mom wasn't actually back, apparently she was staying with a friend. I was going back home today, I couldn't wait to see my horses and Bella again. "Thank you for letting me stay and dropping me home Mrs O'Donnell" I said climbing out of the car. "That's ok Violet come visit more often!" she said smiling as I waved them off. I had no desire to speak to my mom, I mean she left us for like nearly a week to fend for ourselves. I sighed as I headed into my room and shut the door, I put my headphones on and turned my music up.
I pulled my drawing pad out and started drawing, I was so engrossed with my music that I didn't hear my bedroom door open. I looked up as Bella came running over to me and jumped on my bed, I pulled my headphones off and hugged her tightly. "Violet you're home!" she squealed, "hey Bella, are you ok?" I asked as she nodded. "Are you sad Violet?" she asked, "Not really why?" I questioned. "You drew a sad person" she told me pointing to my picture.
"No its just a silly picture Bella, I have a good idea" I said. "What Violet?" she asked, "how about we go for a ride?" I said. "Oh yes please Violet!" she said jumping up and down, I smiled "go get some shoes on then miss and I'll meet you by the stables?" I said. "Ok Violet" she answered running into her room.
I headed down into the garden as all the horses neighed excitedly at seeing me, "hey girls!" I said stroking each of them in turn. I saw a pile of hay and carrots dotted around the field and smiled, well they've certainly been looked after. Bella came running down the garden all dressed, "Ready Violet!" she said stopping in front of me. "Which horse do you want to ride?" I asked, "I wants to ride buttercup please" she said as I nodded and called her over. She stuck her nose over the fence as I put a saddle on her and popped Bella on her. She neighed as we headed into the woods, Bella smiled the whole time It was good to see her happy.
Later that night..
I heard the front door shut as I looked down stairs, Mom was back. I sighed and shut my bedroom door, a few minutes later I heard my bedroom door open. "Hey Violet Is Bella asleep?" she asked, "Yeah she is" I answered going back to my book. "Look I know you're annoyed but I had to go" she said, "annoyed about what the fact that you left me and Bella for nearly a week? Or the fact that you come home and pretend everything is ok?" I said.
"I know and im sorry" she answered. "Yeah well never mind eh" I replied, "Look violet I've said im sorry I don't know what else to say" she answered. "Forget it im over it, you know what really annoys me? The fact that you left a little 6 year old broken hearted and confused and wanting her mom. But you weren't here were you, I had to listen to her crying all night because she wanted you, you have no idea how hard that was for me to see her like that. Now please just leave me to read my book" I shouted as angry tears filled my eyes. My mom sighed and walked out.
I threw my book across the room and fell into my pillow burying my head in it..
