Wild At Heart

Welcome To The Life Of Unfairness

I layed down on my bed. I couldn't concentrate on homework. My parents were yelling down stairs. Nothing I say or do could help it. 

" YOUR SO LAZY, ALL YOU EVER DO IS JUST SIT THERE WHILE I WORK." My dad yelled.

" TAKING CARE OF KIDS IS WORK! YOUR SO UNGRAITFUL!" My mom screamed at him. 

" WHEN I COME HOME YOU EXPECT ME TO WANT TO HELP? I THINK AFTER A LONG DAY OF WORK I DISERVE TO COME HOME AND RELAX. BUT NOOOO I HAVE TO HELP YOU." I could't bare to listen to my mom and dad arugue. Tears sild down my checks. Other kids at my school have it so easy. They are so lucky that their parents don't fight. It really relfects on me how my parents are. 

" KAT GET DOWN HERE NOW!" My dad called from down stairs. " I KNOW YOUR HEARING THIS!" 

I forced my way down the stairs. I shivered with every step. He knew I was listening. My heart was pounding as I stood in front of them both. 

" What did you hear?" My dad asked me softly. I couldnt move or speak. I looked at my colorful socks, not able to look my dad or mom in the eye.

" Kat why don't you go get ready for bed and I will be up there soon." My mom sugested. I nodded rushing upstairs before my dad could say another word. I loved my dad and mom equal and it brakes my heart when they are fighting. I brushed my teeth and then slipped on my pj's, getting into bed waiting for my mom. She came upstairs and gave me a hug. 

" Mom what where you and dad fighting over this time?" I asked hoping she would anwser. Suddenly emotion and regret filled her eyes. I was now scared abut what she was going to say. 

" Kat, this is a long story. Your dad and I have made a dicision. Let me say it was a ver hard dicision..." My mom's voice trailed off. " Kat sweetie, your dad and I have been arguing alot. For the best, we both agreed to... well get divorced." I starred at the wall blankly. 

" Kat everything will be okay, just because your dad and I are splitting up things will still be the same. You will live with your dad at the ranch and go to the same school. I however will be moving." My mom gave my hand a slight squeeze. 

I wanted to ball like a little kid. I didn't want to be a 14 yearold with their parents splitting apart. No one in my class's parents were spilt up or going through it. Why couldn't I be like that? Why for me everything was unfair? I wish there was a redo over button that I could press and everything could be back to the way it was, a happy family. But no, Things weren't all happy. Everything I had known is gone. My mom is moving away to Flordia while I am stuck here in Maine with my dad. 

My mom handed me a glass of water, and then turned off my lights. I was all alone sitting in th darks of my room. Tomorrow was school, and I know that my mom would be gone by the time I wake up for school. No redo overs, nothing.Everything that I used to know and love would be over, Nothing will ever again be the same........
