To Tomoyo
Daddy came home today and he brought lots of presents with him. I got lots of chocolate and a pretty dolly. I'm going to name her after you, Tomoyo. He was smiling when he came home, but Mommy wasn't. She had her arms folded across her chest and a stern look on her face. Daddy ignored her at first and gave me my presents. Then he gave Mommy a present too. She wouldn't take it. Mommy usually likes presents, but not today. She hit the pretty little pink box out of Daddy's outstretched hands. It clattered onto the floor, after it hit the wall. I wonder what's in it. Then all the shouting started.
"What was that for? Why won't you take it?"
"Why don't you tell me? You're the one that's away all the time." Tears were dripping down her cheeks now - her beautifully made-up cheeks.
"They're just business trips. What are you on about?"
"So who's Cheryl then?" Who is Cheryl? I didn't know of an Aunty Cheryl.
"She's a colleague. A friend." Weariness crept across his once-young face.
"Just a friend? If she's just a friend, then why did you buy her such an expensive necklace?"
"What are you talking about? What necklace?"
"The gold one with the pearl on it."
"Oh. That was for my mother."
"LIAR!" She was crying hysterically by now and her knees buckled beneath her, making her fall to the carpet in a pathetic pile.
Daddy stared at her for a moment and then turned to me and looked at me as if he had suddenly remembered that I was there.
Silently, he took me up to my room and told me to go to bed.
I don't know what happened after that. And here I am, writing this in my room.
Bye Bye
