Something was triggered inside me the moment we got that call about mum. She left when I was 7 years old, I'm almost 24 now. I haven't seen or spoken to her in 16 years. I thought all hope I had of her coming back had faded, but that call lit something inside me, something it shouldn't have.
I thought I had control over my life. I had no idea how wrong I turned out to be. A shadow from my past haunts me, torments me, has me in it's grip, and yet, I am unable to let him go.

Blue Hair and Bruised Knees
My life used to be pretty boring. Everything was average. Normal family, normal looks, normal house, normal job, normal life. The only non-boring aspect of my life was my best friend which was only because she always managed to mess it up somehow. I didn't really mind much because it kept things interesting. That is until she disappeared leaving me to care for her fatherless child with nothing more than a few hundred pounds and a sorry note. She did ruin my old life. She ruined everything that I'd actually cared for. My parents hated the fact that I was 'throwing my life away' for a child that wasn't mine. Not to mention illegally. I dyed my hair blue in rebellion. My own way of saying "F*CK YOU!" ...They kicked me out shortly after. I couldn't find a decent job in the area and the rumors became so vicious that I just left and never looked back. Old life: Destroyed, unraveled, completely gone. Let's see how long my new life lasts shall we?Complete
