(this chapter's just a filler idk enjoy!)
"I'm home!" I shout as I walk in my front door, to find no reply. of course; my dad works late, my mum would never reply, and our housekeeper takes Tuesday off. I walk towards my mum's office (I can't say why she has one, it's not like she's working or anything,)
"hey." I say as I drop my bag and lean against the doorframe.
"pick that up." she says without looking up from her desk. "how was your day?"
the question isn't genuine - she asks entirely out of routine. "it was... fine." I say. I could tell her about my day, about the people I met, the gorgeous boy that I seem to be growing closer and closer with. but I know that if I start, I'll never stop, and coming out to my parents has never been an option. I grab my bag and start to leave.
"homework!" she commands, as if I wasn't going to anyway.
"hey, kiddo. good day?" my dad appears at my bedroom door.
I grin up at him, "yeah, great."
"you know, I would expect less idle answers to my question, seeing as your test results are outstanding" he jokes as he walks away "try to be more literate next time," he laughs. he's joking of course. I mean, it's important to him for me to be intelligent, but unlike my mother, he doesn't let it get in the way of our relationship.
I finish the conclusion to my 6 page essay on the population crisis in China by 10 pm; God, I regret taking geography. I put it safely in my bag and gently massage my aching hand. I fall back onto my bed and switch the light off, and just lay there in the dark: let my mind wonder.
then the daydreams kick in.
(should I do some daydream chapters, or describe them kinda briefly and move on in the chapter after?)
