Part 2

The next time Sarah awoke, sunlight flooded into the room through the window. The smell of bacon filled her nose and lungs.

"Sarah" a female voice shouted, "Sarah, are you up yet?"

"Yes" she replied "Yes, I'm up!"

Sarah lazily climbed out of bed and into some fresh clean clothes. She walked down the stairs and into the Kitchen. Toby was running around the table with the large, red, toy aeroplane that Sarah had bought for him last year for his second birthday. It took her a month's worth of moving lawns and saving up to buy it, but he was worth it. They seemed to get along better now, since what happened in the spring of last year. Although Toby was too young to remember what happened fully, Sarah was sure he could remember parts of what happened, of what Jared did…. Jared.

"I mustn't think about him" Sarah whispered quietly to herself, as she poured herself a bowl of cereal.

"Bacon Sarah?" Asked her Stepmother.

"No thanks" She replied over Toby's shouts of "BACON, BACON, BACON!!!"

Her Stepmother was another person she got along with more than she did. She had really grown up a lot.

"I was thinking about cleaning the attic today" Sarah said as her Father walked in.

"Great" his father said as he kissed his wife.

Sarah used to hate this because she thought that her Stepmother was trying to take her real Mother's place in her heart. Now she was glad that her Stepmother was here as it seemed that it eased her Fathers pain form when her mother died and he seemed to be happy again, which pleased Sarah. A slight smile spread across her face at the scene. She finished her breakfast and headed upstairs.

"Better get started" she said aloud to herself.
