Chapter 1
Nikita! Nikita! Renee called. What! I shouted. Mum calls for you, she shot. Okay, be right there in a minute, i said jumping off the bed. I ran downstairs. Yes, mum! I said. Do you need hearing aids or something, i have been calling you for the past 5mins, are you deaf! My mum shot. I am sorry, mum, i said looking down. Of course you should be and why haven't you gone to the grocery shop? She asked. Oh! I totally forgot, I'll get going, i said going upstairs. I knew you would, you are good-for - nothing and useless, your siblings are better than you. I went to my room and cried my eyes out. I can tolerate any abuse from her but one thing i hate is comparing me with my siblings and it was the one thing that she loved doing. I changed into my purple sweatshirt and my lilac shorts. I put on my sandals and face cap and rushed out of the house. I went to the nearest grocery shop and bought all the things needed and paid. Hey! I looked back only to see my bestfriend, Nari. Hi! I replied. What's wrong, why does it look like you've been crying? She asked touching my face. It's nothing, i said trying to hide my face. You know you can't lie to me, is it your mum again? She asked. I knew i couldn't lie to her. I nodded. It's okay, don't let it affect you,. She said hugging me. I cried uncontrollably. It's fine, she said. She managed to calm me down. Ok, bye, see you soon, she said waving. I waved back and i ran back home. I dropped the bag in the kitchen and went upstairs. Luckily, she wasn't there to insult me again. Oops!! I haven't introduced myself properly. I am Nikita Sinclair, 15 years old, average height, grey eyes, blonde hair, i live with my parents and siblings in California.
