CHAPTER 1
Been staring at the blank page as long as I remember.I don't know what to write. The more I try to say my farewell the harder it becomes.It all started one month ago....
"Baba you did it again didnt you,how many times are we going to go through it."" Mummy!!! you gotta come here " Poki shouted, "Now whats going on there" Mummy sighed and went to the bedroom.
" Oww why did you do it !!!?" mummy shouted.I rushed to see what the matter was, I wish I didn't go there as it was the most heartbreaking scene.My dad was so drunk that he couldn't even lift his head to address the matter.The moment I saw him I couldn't process how should i react,all i could think was he promised he won't do it, he promised how could he??
"OW WHY ARE YOU BEING LIKE THIS? DONT YOU LOVE US? WHY ARE BEING LIKE THIS?" skrieked Mummy
"Shusss.....lower you voice" said Baba
"Lower my voice...What do you take us for? Tell me right now why? Which thing have dissatisfied you for you to be like this!!" shouted Mummy with tears running down her face.
I rushed back to my room because I couldn't listen to them anymore.The more i tried to run away from reality the more real it has started to become.
"Puks wake up!! wake up! its time for school" I could hear someone nagging me.The moment i opened my eyes it was my mom .
I got ready had my breakfast and left for school.
Well everyone in school knew me as Puks,the nerd with no friends and well the girl who always read books.Well that reputation was fine for me as long as nobody knew me ,it wasnt like I didnt want to be social but well it wasnt worth it to begin with.If they knew what kind of background I came from they would always judge and well pity me which i didnt need nor want.
My day started how it usually would and ended like always.As i was packing my backpack i felt a tug on my sleeves When i turned around it was a girl from our class.
"hmm hmm puks well if your free can you help me out for abit please..?" asked that girl
Oh my god! now what should i say? yes or no? what kind of help does she want i struggled to find the answers.
All i could say was "hmmmmm "
"Its okay if your not free and all i totally understand " saying this she left my sleeves and went along with her friend.
I wondered what of help she would have needed with this thoughts lurking in my mind i went home.
But every thought went out of my mind when i saw my dad being pushed inside the police car
I rushed to ask what the hell is going is going on to my dismay he ws being arrested for stealing money from the neighbor.
i couldn't stop my tears from pouring i wanted him to change,i wanted our life to be abit better than just struggling to stay alive for just a day,i wanted my mom to smile and not be pushed around by everyone but...life is not always a bed of roses.I learned that when i saw my dad being handcuffed and taking away from all of us.
When i rushed inside my mom was there on the floor with all the dreams scattered .
I couldn't figure out what should i be doing. I didnt knew whether to cry or confort my mum or take care of my siblings.
In the mist of this there was a knock on the door it was the neighbor demanding his money back.Mummy tried to reason with him to no valid.
At last he left with an a demand that his money to be paid within a week if not he will proceed with the case.
We tired every possible way to arrange a way to find the money so that he would withdraw the case just to hear the of slam door at our face.
Than like a angle in disguise our uncle came forward to help us out with the condition that we help him out at his household chores as he was a single dad with a son and a daughter with tears in our eyes we agreed.
We repaid the man and brought our dad back home with the determination to send him to a rehabilitation center.
Finally we thought the bad days were over.
If only it was....
