That next morning when we woke up we got a phone call. It was my dad. He had called to tell us that his girlfriend was in the hospital having a little boy. They had named the baby Charlesl. Three weeks after he was born my dad and his girlfriend had gotten married. They had moved three blocks away from me. Everyday I would go to my father's to play with my little brother and hang out with my dad.

A month later it was my birthday. When I got home from my dad’s, Olivia was sitting on my couch. I was so happy to see my best friend, she was also so happy to see me. She had spent the night that night and we stayed up all night talking about our schools and talking about how much everything has changed with our families. Olivia was so proud to hear that Suzan got a new heart and that everyone is doing better. Jordian is not getting bullied anymore. My dad and mom are friends again and everything seems to be going more smoothly. My life is a lot better now that I am sixteen.

Summer is over now and we are going back to school. There’s this new kid in school. He is really cute, his name is Levi. Levi was also really funny and cool. At lunch he came over to my table and sat next to me. He asked me to show him around the school. By the end of the day, it was as if we were  best friends.

As I was getting on the bus, I saw a familiar face. It was Olivia. I raced over to her and asked what she was doing here. Olivia moved here and now she goes to my school. Today was the best day ever! My best friend went to my school and I made friends with a hot kid!

I went to my dad's house that day after school and told him everything. He was proud that me and my sisters were doing good. I stayed the night that night. My stepmom had made an amazing supper. It was steak and fries, the steak was so good that it made me feel like I was in heaven. I loved my new stepmom; she was really nice. She let me and my sisters do whatever we wanted. She was really funny and crazy. My mom became good friends with her.

My mom had a new boyfriend. He was pretty cool at first. When he watched us while my mom was at work he yelled at us a lot and he also hit us sometimes. I tried to tell my mom but she didn't believe me, so I called the cops and they saw all the bruises. He was sent to jail for twelve years. We got a restraining order on him so that he couldn't come near me. I was so scared I didn't want to go to school. I didn't want to do anything... I was too scared to do anything.]]]]

Two weeks later my dad and his wife had got a divorce and my dad had kept my little brother. When they got married all they did for the last two weeks is fight about everything. She is moving to Hawaii and starting a new career on music. She was a really good song writer she wrote them based on her family and her life. I go over to my dad’s everyday after school to help him with Charles. Charles is seven months now; he has gotten really big. Olivia would go to my dad's house with me and my dad asked us if we could babysit after school so that he can go to work. My dad was short on money so my mom would help him out when he needed the help. Once in a while my dad and Charles would come over for supper. My mom and dad became best friends again, they didn't fight they would laugh all the time.

Three months later my mom and dad were talking. They went out to supper one night and they started to date again. They seemed so happy. Mom loved  like he was hers. I was so happy that my parents were together again and that everyone was happy. It was not that long before it was Suzan birthday. She was going to be turning four. She was so excited that it was going to be her birthday soon. She would count down the days and tell everyone how many more days she had tell her birthday. Everyone seemed so happy.
