Chapter 1
Hi my name is Sapphire Anderson and this is MY story about my parents and how little problems increased .Once upon a depressing story, SHUT UP *swears runs downstairs *opens door Sapphire get up lets go BEN, LOUIS get here now runs downstairs *gets car keys, opens front door, grabs Ben and Louis SAPPHIRE GET DOWNSTAIRS NOW (dad) Sapphire don't, go stay in your room. This is the first major problem my parents had but little did I know this little problem caused a whole year to have nothing but hatred between them. I honestly don't know how the hell this happened or started and I don't know if anything has happened before but, this is the first time they have showed this behaviour in front of me and my brothers. Now knowing this happened this situation is not going to end. One night is all it took to turn my life upside down.
It is 2019 and this was the worst year out of my whole life especially when the 6 weeks holiday started (22nd July). My mom told me and my brothers to go pack quite a few clothes and undergarments as well as shoes and our electronic gadgets. She did say how we were going to stay down my cousin (Emma)s house so I thought nothing of it until. My brother (Ben) came to my room asking are we going because of mom and dad? I thought for a moment of why had he said that I then replied no, why would you think that? he then went quite and replied I don’t know I just thought I then interrupted him and told him not to think things like that. Around 1hour later my mom put our clothes into the car.
We were on the motorway with music blasting in the car we were all so happy but as always happiness don't last forever my mom lowered the music and said how she wants to talk to us she then said Me and your dad ain't doing so good so we are going to stay down Emma's house for a while, my brother (Ben) started bursting out with tears saying how he told this me this was the reason for packing so much stuff I held back my tears trying my hardest to stay strong knowing that slowly the pieces of my heart are breaking apart, my mom then said if we (Ben, Louis, Me) can stay strong for her. The rest of the trip to Emma's was done with complete silence.
We had arrived to Emma's house I went upstairs into my cousins room and started to cry my mom then called me and my brothers to go into the living room. I wiped away my tears and did so, she then told us if we had any questions I asked How long will this be going on for? she replied I really don't know, I was so heart – broken. My brother then asked Can we still see dad like normal? my mom replied I would never stop you from meeting your dad and anytime you want to do see your dad then tell me or tell Sapphire (me) to call them.
I also have a really good friend that I tell anything to, her name is Shannon she is my best friend and as soon as I went back upstairs I told Shannon as she gives me the best advice. She told me that I have nothing to worry about and that something good will, come out of this I really hoped she was correct. I then heard how my mom was looking for a new house I told Shannon as usual she then told me to try ignore everything they talk about (to be honest my dad told me the same thing) that way I wont get so depressed but I couldn't stop I mean I literally hear everything everyone says. Luckily Shannon is one of those funny friends so she managed to get my mind off stuff that was going on. I then gathered the courage I had left to talk to one of my cousins (Lilly) about this dilemma as she lived with me. I did make her promise to not cry as she did when the first problem had happened, I then told her, she then cut me off I panicked, what if something happened I thought, I called her back twice the second time she finally answered I heard her voice cracking I then knew she had been crying I tried comfort her and as it was late at night I told her to get some sleep.
Although lots was going on we did see our dad as normal and we did visit home quite a bit, we basically had the same life as before the only difference was that we never actually lived with the same people we still loved our dad with all the love in our hearts and we still loved everyone in that house that we call home. If I have to be honest I don't know why but I got quite annoyed when my brothers or mom or anyone called Emma's house my home its just that to me whenever someone said that its as if I've left my dad and everyone in that house for good which I hated because although I either got into arguments or fights I still love them and although in the actual house we show hate and disgust between each other I still love them deep in my heart. I also have a cousin who honestly is like a sister to me who I slept in the same room as, she goes by the name Lilly I have already mentioned her anyways although we get into the stupidest arguments, I still love her deep in my heart. Even my mom said that with all that's going on it'll bring us closer and honestly for me it has I'm not too sure about her though.
One day I and Alisha and Alisha’s kids went to the park. And I wanted to talk to someone about it so I told Alisha some stuff nothing that important, so not important that surprisingly they already knew so yeah .Now I have 4 real people to talk to about this which is probably my Mom, Alisha, Shannon and Emma to be honest I also was quite worried for my mom because when we started staying down Emma's house my mom became depressed she never ate anything and she would never get to sleep but soon enough we managed to force her to eat as well as sleep.
Present day
It is the 24th of August 2019 and I found out some very valuable information which is how uncle (my dads dad) is coming over on the 25th of August to take my mom back I honestly dont know why but have a gut feeling that this is bad only because they had the whole holiday to come and pick up my mom and us yet they come near the end of the holiday which just to mention WAS 6 WEEKS LONG its like they came to make them self look good so ye lets wait and see what happens because honestly for me this is going to be interesting.
Ok now they had a talk and
JK Im really, really, really, really, happy. My mom, uncle, grandma and auntie spoke with each other and my gut feeling was incorrect so basically when I kept questioning the time it was because uncle was sick and busy so they never got a chance to come during the holiday but as soon as they found a free time they came straight away which Im delighted about only because I now know that they did actually care for my mom and us also the talk did include tears, yelling , happiness , anger and truths which was most important and at the end of all of it they declared my mom back to the house give me a second:
YAY
SO HAPPY
To be honest right now all I hope is that we end up staying a happy family.
