Alex.
My eyes slowly drifted around my room.
They peered over all the boxes that surrounded me.
Until now I never realised that practically my whole life could fit into 10 boxes.
All that was left to pack now was the big things like my desk, bed, T.V and last but not least the contents of my cupboard.
I picked up one of the remaining boxes and made my way towards the cupboard.
As I began piling things into it such as old teddy bears, trinkets and photo albums I opened one of the albums.
The minute I did I wished I hadn't.
It was a family photo.
My mother Leigh looked so happy clutching a young Catherine in her arms.
Even for me it was hard to believe that Catherine was once a baby.
Now she was just an annoying 14 year old.
My mother had always adored her because she was different.
Unlike the rest of us she had Jet black waves for hair while we had thick honey blonde hair.
Unlike I Catherine had my fathers deep blue eyes while I had my mothers ocean blue ones.
Moving my eyes away from Catherine I looked at myself.
Back then I was a chubby cheeked 4 year old who would happily cling to her father James' leg during a photo.
Now I could barely stand to look at him.
I chucked the album into the box with the rest of my things and proceeded to pile more things into the box.
After a few minutes I had reached the bottom of my cupboard.
My pulse seemed to quicken when I picked up the colourful Childs blanket that lay before me.
I stared at it.
Upon picking it up I felt the soft wool that lay on the underside and as I slowly kneaded it through my fingers, I felt a tear.
This particular blanket had been thrown in the bottom of my cupboard in an attempt to hide it from my mother.
All those years ago I had torn it.
I had torn it out of pure fear…
I awoke with a terrible chill.
I clenched my eyes so tightly hoping the spider would release me.
My blanket offered some security as I bit into it with such force that I could taste wool particles hovering down my throat.
This had been happening every night for two years now.
I tried to envelope myself in the blanket as the spider drew closer.
I didn't stand a chance.
While it was happening I saw the spider's eyes.
The spider was daddy.
I shook my head as a way to clear those horrible memories from my mind.
I threw the blanket with all my might into the bin that was near my door.
"Hey watch it Lex'' Catherine said as she dodged the blanket.
"Sorry Cathy." I mumbled while taping up the last box.
"Well dad said we were leaving now."
I took one last look around the room that was once mine before I followed Catherine out the door.
"Goodbye Eden…"
