Dear You

I saw mom sneaking out again at night when dad was sleeping. She tip toe her way down the stairs making sure not to wake dad up, she saw me and stiffened.
She told me if I ever tell dad anything about this she will abandon me.

This is the third night I've seen her sneaking out and I wanted to tell father but decided not to.
My father loved my mother too much and I didn't want him to be heartbroken once he finds out what mum's being doing behind his back.
I rather let mum come clean to him one day.

After three hours I saw a car pull over at our driveway. I saw a man exit the car with mum in his arms, he went to the front door and dump mother on the sofa outside the porch.

Once the car is out of sight I sigh and grab my blanket and went outside. I covered mom with the blanket and kissed her forehead, not wanting to wake her up I went back to my room and lay on my bed with only one thought on my mind.

I hope mother has an explanation to dad in the morning  why she is sleeping outside with a slutty dress on and a red mark on her neck...

Until then...
Lots of love
Em.
