I could feel the lump in my throat, blocking my voice from being heard. My eyes were glossy, and my hands fumbling. I wanted to run away, to close my eyes, and scream out in frustration. Why couldn't I just ask the question? Why is it so hard for me to even breath?
I looked into his brown eyes, the confusion and anxiety wondering in them. I looked back down at the galaxy themed blanket, hoping this conversation would just fade away and we'd talk about something else. But, I knew I had to ask the question, I knew I had to be told the reason. So, I asked the question.
"W-Why did you do it? Why did you leave us?" My voice was broken and I was stuttering, blinking the hot tears away. My heart was pounding and teeth clenched, I felt as if another second would go by, I'd blow up like a bomb.
He hugged me, sighing loudly and speaking softly,"Your mom and I have had many conflicts throughout the years. We married young, not living life to the fullest. It was hard for us, economically and physically, but, after a while we got used to it." I could hear his voice shaking, as if he'd cry as loud as I wanted to. "After a couple years I didn't know what I was doing. So, I got with her. I wasn't thinking about the consequences it would bring me, I just wasn't thinking."
I held so many words back, letting the tears slip from my eyes and fall to the blanket. My heart hurt. I wasn't brave enough to ask more questions, I knew that even if I did he wouldn't be able to move on and tell me as well.
I thought about how unfair it was, why couldn't I have the perfect family like my other friends? I felt like the weird kid, the one who didn't fit in because they didn't have what everyone else had. I remember seeing my mother cry everyday,
This is what I have so far ;A; Yeah... it's gonna be about my parents divorce and all that. I'm sitting in a classroom, reviewing it over and over, but,I don't know. I showed a couple of my friends and they told me they wanted to cry by reading it... so yeah hehe
Tell me what you think of it, please? Just that cuz I have nothing else. I'm pretty shure I'll post it onto here once I'm done with it ;)
