One - Bailey's entry
Dear Diary,
I hate that Mike makes us do this. I hate having to tell you everything that has happened and how I feel about it. I mean why. If I'm angry this ain't gonna help. Just make me more agitated about it all.
Anyway, today was Christmas. I went downstairs to find this weird freaky kid with roughly chopped brown hair sleeping on the sofa. Called Skye, like I care. Mike says she is coming to live with us. Fantastic. I just get another annoying child about the place, screaming and shouting. She's nine which makes it worse. I mean take Harry and Floss. They are so clingy and noisy all the time and she even is friends with Harry. That means more noise and more children underfoot.
I just wish my dad would come back so I don't have to deal with all this. It ain't my fault that I'm here. It's his. If he didn't swan off to find a job, I wouldn't be stuck here.
Oh, Johnny was being annoying again just by breathing. He breathes so loud. We had a bit of a fight over the table at dinner and I spilt Harry's drink but he just thought he had done it so the fault isn't mine. I love it when the little ones get into trouble for my actions. Makes me feel so much… better. Mind you they never moan about it. They are so happy all the time. Even Skye seems like that.
I can't imagine losing my parents on Christmas Eve. I just can't.
A/N: Inspired by my enjoyment of writing Skye's diary entries I thought why not tell the story of Skye through the eyes of the other Ashdene Ridge kids diaries. Each one of these will be uploaded as the new entry of Skye's is uploaded so you can see how the other kids feel about the events that have taken place.
