*After school*

Remember earlier?

I kicked Ellie

The teacher made me pick up all the litter around the school as punishment.

And it was raining.

This day can't get any worse.

I'm out in the school field right now.

I can see Ellie. She's limping. Lindsay is with her helping her walk.

I sighed.

I stuffed more litter into the bag.

"This sucks doesn't it?" I heard someone say

I turned around to see Marcus. I smiled.

"What are you doing here?" I asked still smiling.

"I came to see why you used Dave. He's my friend Grace!" He said seriously.

My smiled faded.

"I didnt mean to use him..." I trailed off

Then I remembered

"You never called me when you said you would" I say putting my hands on my hips.

He looked to the ground then back at me.

"I handled things badly I know. I didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings" he said slowly.

"So you were gonna break up with Lindsay then call me?" I asked.

There was a moment of silence.

"Yeah" He said.

I couldn't help but smile.

"But things are different now. I saw you with Dave at me and martinus' concert. I couldn't believe it" He huffed.

I looked down.

"Why did you tell Ellie my brother isn't good enough for her? Does that mean I'm not good enough for you?" He then yelled

Did I really say that? I guess I did

"I didn't mean that! We were-" I began to say but he cut me off

"I thought you were different. But it turns out your a selfish bitch" he said then walked off

Ouch

He left me there in the rain.

I wanted to cry but he spoke the truth.

I am a bitch.

I need to make things right.

I went home feeling miserable and wet.

I then went straight to bed and immediately fell asleep. Sleep away your drama (lol)

The next morning was the weekend. I heard voices downstairs so sat on the stairs to listen. It was my mum and her friend. They were talking about divorces. Ever since my dad had gone to New Zealand my mum has been all over Jem.

"Grace are you up? I need you to look after Libby! I have salsa dancing with Jem!" She yelled.

I sighed.

"Yeah" I said

I feel awful.

Later on I decided to follow my mum to her salsa dancing. Creepy I know but I just wanted to get away.

I looked at them and they were having a great time. My mum was smiling and so was Jem.

She ant divorce my dad. She just can't.

I ran. Ran away from it.

I decided to take the bus to my dads office in england.

I entered and it looked rather posh. White was the main colour and red seats and walls.

"Can I help you?" The receptionist asked with a smile.

I told her my name and she immediately knew who I was.

"Can I speak with my dads manager?" I asked.

"I'm afraid he's already left" she replied.

I sat on the seat beside me and cried.

She came over and I told her everything and how much I needed him back.

It was good to talk to someone.

I want my dad back.
