Star Signs
Notes:
Mostly Louisa's POV
'Italic writing is thoughts'
*Writing with stars instead of quotation marks is sign language*
(Year 2375)
"Are you alright Louisa?"
I put down my knife and fork quickly
*I'm fine just thinking*
"Thinking of?"
*Todays date* Today is the 24th of October. Today is the day my mum got engaged to Mark, I can't stand even thinking of that name mum cant ether it makes her break down.
"What's so special about the, oh" Mum stopped as she realised "I threw that engagement ring a long time ago, I hate that ba" Mum stopped herself again as she looked around the table "We will talk after dinner"
Talk is another word I don't like, Its something I can't do. No one knows why I can't talk, I did when I was young, I only stopped talking the day my daddy left us. The doctor said if I really wanted to I could talk, he said it was a mental problem not a physical one. Mum went through hell when dad left she had a break down, that's when she got together with Mark, he was an old childhood friend of hers and she had fallen in love with him. She said she hated dad for leaving us, she hated the fact him leaving had stopped me from talking. She got rid of almost everything that reminded her of dad the only things she had left was my baby pictures with him in the background, she said they were the only ones she had so she couldn't chuck them out, untill I was 11 they were the only memories I had of dad. When I was 11 the year was 2371 and a lot of things changed!
Short I know but hey what do you think? I will try to update as often as I can but with all my college work that might be hard, any way review and tell me what you think of this so far
