July 23rd 2009
Dear Diary,
Hey its me Sydney again just a quick update on life, it still sucks but now everything is 10x worse my mum is taking back custody of me im 2 weeks meaning i have to leave my school its already shit but now iâll have no friends and Iâd have to be a loner for weeks before someone could actually want to be friends with me. I already know as Iâve had to change schools so many times Im aware of the chace but the fact that in 2 weeks Iâll no longer be living with my dad makes everything worse sure he sucks at cooking and has no good music taste whatsoever but heâs always been my favorite parent and-
My writing was interrupted by a loud call from her dad a shout that said âhoney, come downstairs pleaseâ
Hold that thought
I put down the pen that I was writing with and slammed my diary shut before throwing it into her cabinet beside my desk.
I ran down the stairs making loud sounds of my footsteps on her way down.
âHey dad whatâs up?â I said trying to put on a big happy smile I couldnât tell if it was working or if I looked like some creepy clown so I stopped
âSitâ he gestured towards the couch as if I couldnât see it right in front of me
âOk..â I walked towards the couch already knowing that whatever he was going to say would not be good as whenever he tells me to sit I end up bawling my eyes out or shouting.
âSo your aware that iâve been single for a good few years nowâ
I nod, confused but I nod
âAnd your going to live with your mother nowâ
I nod once again
âSo..iâve decided..im getting marriedâ
I couldnât comprehend what he just confessed, what?! Why?! My thought process shut down I didnât think about what I was going to say I just said it
âNO, no you CANT why, why no no no no noâ the topic always has upseted me, maybe more than others would, I was weird, I always was. I was different but not in a good way. I would wish I could be normal for once especially in moments like these. But I canât and with that I stormed upstairs back to my room slamming the door as I enter.
âHoneyâ my dad said as I ran up he was clearly devastated, I should apologize. But I didnât instead I climbed onto my bed and cried, and cried...and cried.
And this is just the beginning to my story and thats just my luck....
