Chapter Ten

Really short chapter

I look at my clock, it is 3:30am. I'm so tired but of course, I can't sleep. Today was a very surreal sort of day. I pretty much told my entire, tragic life story to a stranger, who earlier had spoken not too nicely to me. I didn't see Miss Winnett after recess and I don't want to, ever. After people find out these things they look at me different and they talk to me differently, I become the kid with the dead mum. If I'm honest with myself, I do like Miss Winnett, she seemed nice and caring, Emma does tend to exaggerate on bad qualities. I roll over and feel around for my phone on the bedside table, I get into google and look up Winnett. Images of a place in America, then some old guys and then at the bottom of the third page, a small picture of her, not to long ago looking. It is from an article from some accounting newsletter, it reads:

Natalie Winnett (pictured), will unfortunately be resigning from position of partner in renown firm, "Winnett & Associates". Winnett has worked here since graduating from Melbourne University. She plans on moving to the country side to pursue a career in teaching, we wish her the best of luck..."

It continues on about her statistics and how she is young to be a partner and how great she is and I began to wonder if she was fucking the reporter.

"Hmph." I murmur to myself, satisfied as I close the tab. My school keeps all teacher information private, even their first names for some security reason, (something that happened at the school before I was even there.) I turn my phone off and roll onto my side, curling up and pulling my doona around me tightly. I can only go on not sleeping for so long and get bags before Katherine notices and takes me to the doctor, who will know I'm not taking all of my pills and then, well, I'll be in shit.
