Rodrick's mixtape was perfect, we have the exact same music taste which makes this whole situation even worse. Everytime he's over, I try to avoid being around him, but he's started coming over way more often. Today, I decide to go for a walk while he's over just to escape him for a while. When I get back, I go through the back gate and find Heather crying near the fish pond. I find myself wondering- Did she have a fight with Rodrick? "Heather?" I say, quietly. She looks up and quickly wipes her tears. "It's nothing," she says. "Well you're upset, I just want to see if you're okay?" I awkwardly ask. "You wouldn't understand since your life is perfect," she says. I laugh. "Perfect? Trust me, it's not," I say. "You and your Dad have just walked right on into our lives, Mum's clearly just using your Dad to make mine jealous so he comes back," she says. Is this girl for real? Even her 12 year old sister understands the situation. "Well, we're here so just be happy for your Mum. I'm sorry your Dad left, I really am. I lost my Mum before I can even remember," I start telling her too much, I always do this.
"Oh save me the pity story! I'm only upset because I was supposed to see Dad today but he cancelled. I don't need to hear your life story," she says, getting up and storming off. Wow, this girl is a heartless bitch. I wonder what Rodrick sees in someone like her. I go inside. "Heather's having another meltdown about her Dad not showing up. He always does this though," Tiffany tells me. "It's okay, I'm not taking it personal," I say. "Just tell me if she does anything to upset you," Tiffany says. I head to my caravan to lie down, but Dad follows me in. He sits on my bed. "Are you liking it here, y/n?" he asks, "It must be hard going from just us to living with three new woman." "I'm okay, Dad. I'm comfortable here and Heather being unhappy isn't our fault," I say.
Tonight, I lie in bed feeling guilt churning through my chest because I am secretly waiting for Rodrick to tap on the window. He doesn't, so I fall asleep.
