Chapter 1
Joeys P.O.V
It was a weird day in Walford as I walked through the gardens, the streets were quite not very many people other then the stall holders, I was sat on Arthur's bench when one of the stall holders Kat came over in a rush.
"you shouldn't be out" she said with worry in her voice, I looked at her and asked
"why, what's happening"
"haven't you heard?" she said with wide eyes.
"no" I looked at her confused I wish she would just get to the point,
"there's a bad storm on its way over!" she said as she rushed of to put her stock away before rushing inside
I look about and all the stall holders were rushing about putting there stock away, I rushed in to the shop to get a few bits and pieces that was needed at home, as I got home mum and dad still wasn't home they haven't been home all day which wasn't normal..
I called up the stairs to my younger sister Abi she was 19 and god was she mouth...
"abi,come here please" when she finally came to the top of the stairs with an attitude and said
"what do you want"
I look at her and say "have you and Oscar had any tea yet"
"no, mum said she would cook" abi said with a frown
"well she aint here is she, so what do you want to eat" I asked
"spaghetti and meat balls" she said going back to her bedroom
so I get started on tea and tried ringing mum and dad but got no answer.
a hour later...
tea had just finished cooking so I call up to Abi and Oscar to tell them to come and eat, by the time they come down stairs I had tea on the table ready to eat.
after tea Oscar asked "joey where's mummy and daddy"
I said "well they should be home before we wake up tomorrow morning monkey"
Oscar looked at me and said "who's going to read me a bedtime story and tuck me in"
I look at him and said "do you want me to read to you and tuck you in" he nodded and looked at me with a big smile on his face, "go up to abi and get in the bath and call me when your done and I'll come up"
"Okaii joey" Oscar said running upstairs when he was in the bath I cleaned up the dirty dishes and put them away.
"Joeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" Oscar shouted from upstairs "I ready"
when I got upstairs Oscar was in his little footy onesy and looking at his book shelf for a 3 year old he defo got a lot of books .
"what book do you want me to read" I asked
rubbing his head trying to think he said "Thomas the tank engine"
"okaii get into bed then monkey" I said once he was in bed I started to read the book, half way through the fourth page he was asleep, so I put his night light on and left the room,
12:30am
Oscar came in and woke me up saying he was scared cause the storm has progressively got worst within a few hours,
I asked him "why didn't you go into mum and dads room"
he looked at me scared and said "cause they ain't there"
"get in then" I said holding the covers open for him after what seemed like hours he was finally asleep.
joey looked at Oscar and whispered something under his breathe getting out of bed joey walked to the window, to see icicles hanging from the gutters and ice all over the floor.
"where are you mum and dad" I said trying there phones again, this time I got a answer and mum said "joey" she sounded so frightened.
