"How many times do I have to tell you it's not my fault!" My mother scream from the top of her lungs. There is nothing like my wonderful loving mornings. It was 6:30a.m .To me it's nothing new.Every morning I wake up to my parents fighting. Ever since my dad been having financial problems, he start drinking in on late nights when he comes from work. But worst of all he's been messing around.Cheating."Well then who's is it! your the reason i'm broke, Heather!" My dad says hoarse from all the screaming. "Right because i'm the one who goes around messing with another man and wasting my money on them and on drinks and on clubs!" It was obvious that my mom was hurt by the sound of her voice. "Don't start with me. I do what i want. When i want" Dad shout back. "You see that. That's the reason your money is going all away. It's because of your same damn MENTALITY!!". Oh no I better go downstairs before they do something they'll regret. I didn't bother being silent while walking down the stairs. I wanted them to hear me coming. "Ugh!! you people are UNBELIEVABLE!all i ask for is a quiet morning! so now tell me mother, father what's your excuse for waking up the whole town!!". I was angry i couldn't take it, I hate watching my mom cry. "I'm sorry sweetie, go back to bed. This conversation is over". She said with tears falling down her cheek. She tried to smile to reassure me but she knows she's only fooling herself. I walk back to my room knowing i couldn't go back to sleep.


So here it goes my name is Aleanna Hope which was ironic for i was starting to loose hope. I am 16 and next week starts my junior year. That sucks. I wasn't an only child,I have an older sibling Abriana. She was 19 when she moved out she got tired off my parents constantly fighting. It affected us. Now that she is on her own she hardly comes to visit us. I live in Atlanta,Georgia. I looked out the window, the sun was hiding behind the dark clouds. It might rain but it still was a nice day for me to take a run. I slide on my running clothes. Which was a baggy pants, T-shirt and my black converse. I ran to the front door hoping my parents wouldn't stop me but i realize that they were in their room. I started run down the street. I turned on my iPod to listen to the music and instantly felt better. Music is one of the things that kept me sane. After running for an Hour i decided to go down to the Cafe where my best friend worked part time. I opened the door to the cafe and bells rung.The mixture smell of desserts and coffee hit me in my face. "Hey! i don't care if you wanted black coffee. Coffee is still coffee." I had to smile at friend, Susan impatient, stubbornness The customer walked away mumbling unpleasant words. "Wow! you really know how to spoil everyone's morning". "Leanna!! Hiii!oh that"she said pointing at where the customer came out from"it wasn't my fault" she was surprised at my suddenly barging in. I usually only come on Friday mornings and it was a Monday." Can i get a cappuccino and a sandwich".


"oh arity then. so are you gonna tell me".Susan said seriously. "Tell you what?" I was confused."Tell me about why are you here on a Monday, wait!it's your parents isn't?" She said more of a matter-of-factly than a question."er...Yeah it is.They were fighting again, you know the same old stuff". "Everything is gonna be okay and you know that right" She said with a sympathetic smile."Yeah i do but time seems to move slow and my patience is running out". "Hey, why don't i go over to your house tomorrow and we'll watch a movie. A comedy one, I know they always cheer you up"."Sure see you then, sayonara Susy". I was already finish with my breakfast when I said goodbye. I was really happy that i had a friend like Susan, she knows me so well. We've been friends since Third grade when i accidentally spill grape juice all over her drawing of a princess fairy.I sighed.Those were the good times. When I arrived home my parents wasn't there. They were at work. My mom was a nurse and my dad work at a car sales place. I went up stairs to my room and in my bathroom to take a shower. I bath with warm water to soothe my body. I stayed there for a while and let my thought wander. I longed for a life that is not any ordinary life. You know when you wake up to the same old stuff. Something new, something worthwhile living and happiness. There will be times when I would want to run away. Don't get me wrong I love my parents, I Know they love me but they seem to not love each other." I guess its just me and me against the world" I said to myself.


I turned off the shower, put on some clothes and head down to the living room to watch t.v. I surf through the channels but unfortunately there was nothing on that was interesting. So i ended up watching spongebob squarepants."Spongebob Squarepants, SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS!!...lalalala." I sang along to the intro song. Call me immature but the spongebob show was and kinda still is my favorite show. I just love the characters and their stupendous, idiotic behaviour. After a while I got sleepy and the t.v ended up watching me because i fell asleep on the couch. I was running but why. I realize I was dreaming. Something was after me. Its was dark out and the moon was full. I trip over a fallen tree branch when i heard an animal cry. I turned around only to be greeted by a big creature. I couldn't tell what was it, I only knew it favored a wolf with the little bit of light the moon provided. It started to walk closer towards me. Then suddenly it was like i was frozen in time. I couldn't get up nor scream. I was shocked and i was defining by my heart pounding against my chest. I stared at the creature green eyes with blue flecks,our eyes locked together. "holy..." I woke up with sweat on my forehead and sat up. I stayed that way for a while till my heart calmed down to it's normal heartbeat. I went to the kitchen and looked at the clock it was 6:00p.m. I slept for 4 hours.My parents will be home soon."Greeeeaat" I started to make dinner for myself before they come. I'm afraid of what surprises awaits for me behind that door. I ate some leftover hotdog we ate yesterday. When i picked up the plate to wash it in the sink the door open. I closed my eyes and hope it wasn't my dad. "Hello dear! how have you been today" Mom said. I let out my breathe that was holding in."oh heey mom, i'm good, how was work?". "it was exhausting". I didn't say anything, i just stood there watching her tired face. I wanted so bad to tell her to leave dad get a divorce because I knew it was wearing her out. But every time i did she brings up some excuse. Suddenly the door flew open, it was my dad. Well this is going to be fun i thought.

"Heather!Where's the food!" My dad said. He was drunk i found that disgusting, he had a bottle of vodka in his hand. My mom was afraid of my dad. She thought that one day he would beat her. He was already disrespecting her he might as well hit her. "I just came home from work Jack.I haven't made any food yet" My mom said tired of this."Well what is it gonna take to get some damn food here!". "You know what! Why don't you go ask that slut of yours!" my mom said her voice raising at the end."I said make some food" my dad said dismissing what my mom said. My mom started to walk away when my dad pulled her hand. Now his face was 1 inch away from my mother's. "Where you going without cooking" My dad said. "I told you noo!" my mom was trying to defend herself. Suddenly he threw the bottle to the floor where crashed and broke to little pieces. I was furious now and so was my parents. "Stop it!Dad!!" He turned to me and said"Why don't you clean this mess and stay out of this!" When I started to clean my parents went upstairs to continue what they started. Finally i finished cleaning. I went upstairs to my room. Turned on my iPod as hard as it can go to block the sounds. I cried my eyes out because that seem like the only thing i can do and eventually i fell asleep.


I woke up to the sun shining from the window. I overslept it was 11:00. I didn't seem to hear my parents fighting because of my iPod playing. Which has now died. I went to the bathroom and i stood there for awhile in front of the mirror. I had bags under my eyes which was swollen and red from the crying. My light brown hair was sticking out from many directions. I looked like a mess. Infact i am in a mess. I washed my face and brush my teeth then decided to take a bath. When i was finished i put on a green hoodie with a black short pants. I sat in the kitchen and ate cereal and some orange juice. When i was down i went back to my room and got my sketchbook and my pencil and back slowly down the stairs to go outside. I had a tree in my front yard that had a swing. Its been there since i was 10 years old. The swing seem to be my most favorite spot in the house. I ever since i was 5 and Grandma use to babysit i started to draw.To my sketch book i turn to a clean new page and drew the creature i saw in my dream.While doing this i sing to a song."It's been soo long since i've heard the sound,sound of my only hope. lalala.Sing us a song and we will sing it back to you. We can sing our own but what it would be without you. This heart beats,beats for only you(2x) My heart is your's" I kept singing. Until i heard "Hey! leanna...wats up" Susan said walking up to me. I forgot all about her coming to visit me
