When I was 7, my parents took me to Disneyland in California. I was so excited because I had heard so many great things about it. When we had gotten there, my parents had started fighting about what ride we were going first. I couldn't understand why they were fighting because it didn't matter what ride we went on first, we had all day to go on everything.

When I was 9, I came home from school and heard yelling. My parents were screaming at each other's faces. They were mad because my dad had gotten demoted in his job. This yelling went on for hours. I had gone to bed when the fighting stopped. It was quiet when I heard a car start in the garage. I looked out my window to find my mom leaving the house. I didn't see her for a week.

When I was 12, my dad had gotten mad at my mom because she maxed out her credit card while on shopping trip. We were at a restaurant when we found out. They were speaking about it in hushed voices but I could hear the angriness in their voices. Halfway through the dinner, they just stopped talking all together and gave each other mean looks.


I stood, frozen, in the middle of the kitchen with my mouth hanging open. I was in complete shock. I knew this was going to happen, but I couldn't get myself to believe it.

"Why?" I asked in a small voice.

"We just don't want to fight anymore. It's for the best." My mom said not really showing any emotion. I could tell she was about to start crying.

Suddenly, I snapped out of my daze and said, simply, "Okay," I walked out of the kitchen and right into my lab. I sat down in my desk chair and rested my elbows on the desk with my head in my hands. I took deep breaths, trying not to break down and start crying. All I wanted to do was lie on the floor in the fetal position crying my eyes out.

I gathered all my energy a couple of hours later to go to bed. I went to sleep right away.


The next day I stayed in bed all day. I didn't even bother answering the phone to the questions about yesterday at the conference. I just stayed in bed all day thinking about last night.

What would happen to me? Where would my parents go? Was I going to move? Would I still be able to go to work?

All these questions scared me because I didn't know what was going on.

When I got to work the next day, I did my normal routine. I took the bus to the college, went to my classroom, and sat down waiting for the class to get there. I went through the day trying not to cry. I kept an emotionless look on my face the whole day. When the class left, I packed up my stuff to go home. I walked down the hall when a classroom door opened next to me. Edward stepped out and said, "Hi,"

"Hello." I said giving him a small smile.

"You okay?" He asked walking with me down the hall and outside.

"Uh, yeah." I said, emotionlessly.

"I don't believe you," he said grinning at me, I shook my head at him. "Please tell me." He said to me, practically begging.

"Fine, my parents are getting a divorce, happy?"

The smile had dropped from his face when I looked at him. "Oh," he said kind of speechless. "I'm so sorry Bella, I shouldn't have edged you on like that."

"It's okay," I replied.

"What's going to happen? Is there anything I can do?" he questioned.

"I don't know yet and no, but thanks." I sighed.

" Can I at least drive you home?" He asked. I nodded as I followed him to his car. He opened the car door for me and got in on his side. The ride home was fast and quiet. We pulled up to my house and he sighed.

"Thanks, bye." I said opening the door.

"Wait," he said stopping me before I could get out, "Can I pick you up tomorrow?"

"Yeah, sure, thanks." I said.

"You're welcome, I'll see you tomorrow,"

"Bye," I said as I got out and walked to the door. I opened the door and thankfully heard no yelling, I was alone.

The rest of the night I spent playing WOW.

When will this get better?
