Sophia's P.O.V

I turn my key in the lock, and walk into a house full of noise and the usual place I just happen to live in. I've never been able to call it 'home'. We move house a lot, originally I'm from Wales and we had such close family friends and it was lovely, but I wouldn't even be able to remember any of their names now. My mum and dad got a divorce and my dad told my mum he never wanted to see her again, so my mum stormed out one night, took me and my brother with her and left all her memories behind, she said she wanted it to be " a new start".

"But why"? My brother Taylor whined.
"You know why" said my mum, looking upset.
" I just don't see why we had to move so far away, I had friends mum" I said.
" well your going to make a lot of lovely new friends" said mum, as she drove round and round the roundabout at the motorway until she saw a sign saying 'reading'.

For the rest of the car journey, my mum was in a terrible mood, I don't blame her, having to cope with me and my brother all by herself, I felt slightly sorry for her but this was all her decision. My brother had his headphones on has per usual, I swear he never takes them off, not even at school, which would be why my mum is always getting phone calls saying the teachers need a word. This would always result in my mum slamming the phone down and asking my dad why he wasn't listening to anyone about the headphones, my mum saying over and over that "he was never brought up to behave like that".

I snapped back to the present and realised we were driving down narrow roads on the streets of reading. I haven't even seen a photo of the new house, my mum must have planned this whole thing behind me and Taylor's back.

The car pulled up in the drive and I got out, stood in front of me was a neat tidy house, quite small and cottage like, very near the town, which came in my favour, "and it's very near a local school" explained mum, as she turned her new key, into the new lock".

I knew moving here would mean I would miss some very good friends of mine back in Wales, but there was someone that kept playing back in my mind, but I can't seem to picture his face, or his name, or any memories I ever had with him, but he was special to me, I just don't know why I can't remember, my mum is hiding something, and maybe moving to reading will help me get it out of her.
