Chapter 4
Hornet
Ida told Mosca, she told Riccio. I wish she hadn't, it would make things seem less real like it was all a dream and Prosper would be back. But I knew he wouldn't. He's never going to come back. Ever.
Ida's trying to get a funeral organised, she's running around stressed out because of her work and having to handle this.
Bo refuses to go to school, he won't talk to me, and he won't do anything. And Mosca and Riccio, well, they just stopped coming to see us.
And me, well I just sit here. Doing nothing.
And he's never going to come back.
Bo
I can't think anymore, everything's messed up. Mosca and Riccio are never around anymore and Ida has no time to even say hello, and Hornet? She just sits there with glazed eyes doing absolutely nothing. Why is Prosper dead? Why? They just found a body. Ida wouldn't let them chop him open to see what happened. I couldn't imagine Prosper cut into tiny slices.
There's meant to be a funeral, I don't want to go, and the worst thing is, Ida wants to invite my Aunt and Uncle.
Why did Prosper have to die?
Riccio
Ida told me Prosper died. I thought she was joking, I can't believe it, I thought things were as bad as they could get but this just makes it so much worse.
I've wanted to go see Bo and Hornet, but I'm scared, I dunno. I'm scared of what they'll be like. But I think I will go and see them, even if Mosca doesn't come. They need me, we're there only family.
Mosca
I thought my life had a bit of trauma, I mean not many kids can say there Dad left them and went off on a ship, they lived in a cinema, they're best friend was a thief who actually turned out to be a rich kid who then turned into an adult on a merry-go-round, then they lived with their other best mate in a squat.
But now it's even worse. One of my best mates has died apparently for no reason and my Dads back and I just blew the chance of a lifetime to be with him.
Everything I do seems to turn out bad.
