Katie's POV:

I walked into a rather small flat, following my dad. It had one bedroom, a rather small kitchen, a bathroom and the living room was the biggest room. I dumped my stuff in the hallway and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

"How have you been?" My dad asked while sitting down. "Are you doing okay in school? How's home life?" Adding two more questions. "I'm good, school is alright I suppose and I'm sick of home" I smiled nervously. "What's going on at home?" I couldn't help but burst into tears before trying to explain. "Hey, princess, don't cry, it's going to be okay." My dad said while coming to me and giving me a massive hug. "Sorry dad. It's just been difficult. I mean, I was happy, I got myself a boyfriend called Luke. He's in a band. Me and mum were okay, but last night she started to say I was a mistake and everything bad she could think of. So today I decided to go to the cafe and not go home." I said with more tears streaming down my face. My dad hugged me tighter. "Oh baby girl, everything will be okay. I'll order us a pizza and then we can go back home and I'll have a word with your mum." My dad smiled. It was so nice to be in his company again, maybe he has changed.

The pizza had just arrived so I went into the kitchen and got both me and my dad a bottle of diet coke to share. I walked back into the living room and a box of pepperoni pizza was sitting on the table in the middle of the room, left untouched. My dad was finding something to watch on tv. I sat down and put the coke onto the table, dad still looking at the TV guide. "Are you going to have any pizza or am I having this to myself?" I laughed. Dad laughed back, "no of course not, you dig in, I'll join you after I've found something decent on TV." Well if he insisted. I tucked into the pizza. Man it was good.

About 5 minutes past and dad finally chose to watch The Big Bang Theory. One of my favourite shows.

"So Katie, tell me, how have things been while I've been away?" Dad seemed intrigued, so I began.

"Well, if I'm completely honest. I was happy when you left, because everything had stopped. A part of me was scared that you'd break out of the prison and come after me, so I had a few sleepless nights. Mum was very comforting. Although, no one could stop the self-harming, well that's what I thought anyway. I started high school, the first three years were absolute hell. I was bullied, the depression, anxiety and self-harming became worse. I felt completely worthless but I always faked a smile so no one thought I as breaking. But then year 10 came around and completely changed my life. I met my boyfriend, Luke. Well he had been my crush since forever but he's now my boyfriend and he makes me so so happy. His friends are the lovliest people I've ever met. But you could say we're going through a rough patch right now. Since mum started kicking off to me, I've been ignoring him. I don't know what to do, I don't want to tell him anything, it's not the right time. What should I do dad?" He was sat there stunned for a while, but it was a lot to take in.

"Okay princess. Here's what we're going to do. I am going to take you back to your mums now and I will talk to her, then you should invite Luke round and have him stay over so you can have some time together to sort things out, I think that's best right now." He hugged me again. "Okay, thank you dad." I smiled.

And with that, he took me back to my mums, great.
