Chapter 4 change for the worst
The next morning Makayla found her dad slumped on the sofa as usual but this time he looked different. He was paler than usual and seemed quite out of it so Makayla checked his breathing and what came next was unreal. There was no pulse no there had to be Makayla thought in panic. She couldn't stay here an look at him so she told her sister they had to leave now and she ran all the way to drop her sister off and ran all the way to school and didn't stop at any point. All through first period she couldn't concentrate and kept seeing his face and when second period came she felt physically sick and ran out of the classroom Mrs. Diamond shouting after her. After being sick in the toilet she flushed it and sat with her head between her knee's crying. Yeah she hated her dad if he wasn't drunk on the sofa he would be dealing on the street but she began to think it must have been hard for him after mum died. Just then she heard someone in heels come in and she heard familiar voice say "Makayla are you okay" the voice said it was Mrs. Diamond and right now she just wanted to tell her everything but knew she couldn't "just don't feel well that's all2 she answered sniffling "well if you come out you can go home okay" the teacher asked. So Makayla opened the door and her and the teacher left.
As Makayla walked home she knew her and her sister couldn't stay there. Someone she knew had told her about a shelter she stayed at and Makayla knew she would have no other choice but to go. Just then she felt a tap on the shoulder and turned around feeling very wary but it was only her aunt. Just then Makayla remembered the offer her aunt had given her "yes" she said to her aunt "what?" her aunt said confused in her strong Liverpool accent "me and Jordan will come and stay with you" she answered and with that they walked off.
