Hello! Happy Tuesday! Keep smilin' babes.
Enjoy:)
-Les❤️It was sunny outside, which meant I was happy.
Summer brought me outside, with my best friend Xander. With a group of friends my mom let me play with.
I got up from the couch and went to my mom and dad's room.
"Mommy, what time will Xander come-"
"No, no, you will not leave me. I won't take care of the kid by myself!" My mom screamed.
"Then go call a babysitter of some sh*t. Someone who'll treat her better than you do." My dad took something out of his mouth and I saw smoke fill the air.
"Where would your a*s even go! You wouldn't work for your life-"
I drowned them out, seeing lips moving left to right, hands exaggerating every statement.
"I'm done. I'm done!" My dad said.
He walked out, not sparing a glance at me.
"Daddy, where are you going-"
"Listen, Juniper. I have to leave. Daddy's going far, far away. You're going to need to be strong. Okay? And don't mess around with your mother's bullsh*t. You're nothing like her, you hear me?" He looked into my eyes firmly.
"Y-Yes, daddy." I had learned the hard way from mommy that it was best to not ask questions to adults.
Maybe that's why I was terrible at school.
I saw my dad avoid my eyes walking out the door.
Looking at my mom expectantly, she scoffed.
"You're going over to Xander's."

Dad was calling.
I wearily picked up the phone.
The last time I called, I was thirteen. Mom had just left and I was begging him to come back home.
"H-Hello?" My hand shook, waiting for a voice.
"Juniper!" Dad's voice was raspier.
Isn't it just so infuriating that some people put others through so much...just to randomly act like nothing ever happened?
Just to act like everything was always...okay?
No, no, I'm not taking this.
"What do you want?" I rolled my eyes, trying to lie to myself and say this didn't hurt.
