Kate was on her way home from school.  She has alot of tests these days, so she was really tired of studying.
"Ugh i'm so tired"
She told her best friend Coraline.
"Omg me too. You know why? Becouse my little brother keeps annoying me at home and i keep getting bad grades"
Coraline kept talking about her 'very bad problems' for a little while. While Kate thought
"Does she even care about why i am so tired? Why i hate my life right now?"
But Coraline didn't seem to care at all.
Kate has always known Coraline wasn't a real friend. But she had no one else...
She ignored Coraline's 'important story' and walked quietly to her house. It felt like she walked alone. Even though she walked with Coraline.
She walked up the old wooden stairs to get to her door.
*creak*
Kate's family is very poor. So their house is very old ald ugly.
Or at least, that's what her classmates said to eachother.
It is true though that the house does not look as good as it used to, it is a wooden house build in 1912. The wood was dirty and not in a very good state anymore. It looked like this:

She opened the door to go into her house, she didn't said a word and ran upstaires as fast as she could

She opened the door to go into her house, she didn't said a word and ran upstaires as fast as she could. Her parents didn't knew she was home, exactly what Kate was trying to do.
Her parents would beat her up again if they see her bad grade.
She wanted to go away.
While she was alone in her room, she heard her parents yelling at eachother.
"Shit, dad is drunk again"
Kate was always scared if her dad was drunk. He always beat everyone up in the house if he's drunk.
He once threw a glass bottle at her little sister Elly, but Kate tried to stop it before it hit her head. With succes. Her sister has been placed in another family, becouse of their father. But they didn't knew about Kate. Everyone always forgets about her.
She doesn't know what to do.
She was reading her favourite book in her little dirty room.
She hears footsteps on the stairs.
"Shit, that's dad"
She quickly gets her school book and pretends like she's studying.
The door opens and her dad walked in without saying a word. He came closer and closer. He just stared into her eyes. She felt extremely uncomfortable. Their faces we're really close now. Her dad suddenly yelled into her face
"CLEAN YOUR FUCKING ROOM!"
Kate doesn't look surprised that he yelled at her. Becouse he always does. She tried her best to hold in her tears, but somehow failed. Her tears rolled down her face, she wiped them off quickly.
"Y- yes dad.."
Kate responded.
Her dad once screamed at her again befor he went downstaires again to smoke weed.
"ALSO CLEAN THE ATTIC"
"O- okay dad.."
She started to clean her room, it was alot of work since she always studies and doesn't really have time to clean her room at all. But now she does.
After cleaning her room she slowly went to the attic. She started cleaning it bit by bit. It was so messy. She walked on the floor of the attic, it cracked everywhere she walked.
"This house sucks.."
Kate whispered to herself.
She kept on walking and just looking around. she never really came up there.
*creak*
*creak*
*CRACK*
"Fuck.."
One of the laminate floor shelf broke in a half.
There was a tiny space under the shelf.
"what is that?!"
