Hi there! I'm April, and this name fits me. My parents had run out of inspiration and gave me the name of the month I'm born in -_-. I'm 15, going on 16. My hobbies are horseback riding, swimming and tennis. And like most of the girls of my age, I do not have a boyfriend, and sometimes that annoys me! Sometimes I need someone to talk to. Well I do have my friends, but that's not the same. I want to say my real life to someone, but I cannot do that. I'm ashamed actually. Well, I'll tell you. My dad is addicted to alcohol, and because of that, our family does not have enough money to live properly. When my dad is drunk, he's very aggressive. He always hits me. In my face or on my arm. One time he was so drunk that he forced me to put off my trousers. If I didn't do it, he would break my leg. So he still could pull my trousers down. At the moment I was just about to do it, my Mum came backwards and slapped him with a rolling pin. I was so happy she was there! She's awesome! But let's go back to the part we don't have enough money. Well in school I get a lot of help. All of the teachers give me some money so I can buy food. My classmates also feel it. But they don't help me at all! No, they bully me because of it! I think that's so childish! I mean, c'mon! Today, after school a weird stranger came towards me. I was running away, so he won't follow me. But actually, he just did! When I was about to go inside my house, he hold me. He asked me what my name was, what age I am and if I needed some extra money, to go out shopping or something. I agreed and we have a date tomorrow. I'm excited actually. Who knows what he will say, maybe I've won something!

When I entered my room, it was extremely messy! I mean, it's always messy, but this time it was like a bomb exploded! Clothes, shoes, "diamond" rings everywhere! What the hell has happened over here? Then my little sister Megan (she is 9) came in my room, crying, she told me that our dad had slapped our Mum! Then he left furious and stole my Mum's car! We don't know where he is, what he has done with the car or if he is alive or not! Mum is okay, but a bit shocked! Well yeah, as long as she's okay! That's the most important thing.

Mmmm, shall I tell my friends about tomorrow? I don't know…
