Weeks had past and we still hadnt gone back home.I missed home.I missed my friends.I missed my family.I missed everything.
I didn't know i wouldn't see it all again.
Not for 4 years anyway.
"Can we go to the beach?"My 3 year old brother Johnny smiled happily as he quietly skipped down the road waiting to arrive at some beach or an arcade.
One that we would hardly ever see again.Not for a while anyway.
"There ate beaches here little one"Gary smiled as he held Johnnys hand to cross the road.
Meanwhile me and bruce began to hate the fact that Gary had taken our mother from us.She didn't only give all her time to us but instead she shared it with 'him' too.
"So when are we going back home mom?"My 6 year old self asked with a bold voice with a tint of annoyance in it.
"We are home well until we can move into our new house"My mother said as her hands swung around the air with Gary's locked in hers.
"I want to go home i don't like Gary take me home ,Where is dad ?Let me talk to him!"I began to get a bit annoyed.
"He is out of our lives now Rebecca you need to calm down okay "My mother said as she rested her hands on my shoulders and locked eyes with mine.
"I WANT TO GO HOME TAKE ME HOME MOM TAKE ME HOME!"I began screaming through my tears making Johnny start to cry.
"REBECCA .. Look honey we are here anf here to stay so just deal with it like a 6 year old you are.Look you made Johnny cry"My mother said as she began wiping my brothers tears away.
"Bruce what are you doing?"Gary asked as we all looked at the 4 year old who has begun peeing in a bush whilst smiling at a bird flying in the air.
"Bruce honey don't pee in the bush we are nearly back at the house now"My mother laughed.
"Look mommy its a eagle"Bruce pointed out at a bird that was clearlu just a pigeon but he didn't know.
"Bruce"I laughed as I shook my head and held his hand after sorting his trousers out.
