Chapter two

"So how was first day at school?" Mike asked us when we came home from school the next Monday.

"It was alright." I said.

Flashback

"Emma," the teacher said, "do you want to tell us something ´bout yourself?"

I shook my head.

"Emma lives at Elm Tree House with me." Tyler called out, so everyone could hear.

"Tyler shut up." I said. Cause I didn´t want anyone at the school to know.

"Emma," the teacher said. "We don´t tell anyone to shut up, and Tyler, if Emma wants anybody to know anything about her parents it´s up to her."

End of flashback.

"Did you make any new friends?"

"Yes a few.

Flashback

"So, why do you live in care?" there were a gang of girls standing around me.

"I don´t wanna talk about it."

"They were lousy weren´t they, your parents."

"No."

"Then why do you live in care?"

"I said I don´t want to talk about it"

"Yes, of course. If your parents were that lousy, you don´t want to talk about it. I wouldn´t talk about it if it was me either."

I couldn´t help it. I was so angry I could barely breathe so I took one step forward and beated her in the face.

End of flashback.

"Are the teachers nice?"

"They´re alright."

Flashback.

"Now, since it´s the first time. I won´t call your par… your care home. But I don´t want it to ever happen again. Is that understood?"

I nodded.

End of flashback

"Did you meet Tee or Johnny at school?"

"Yes."

Flashback

"You can´t just start beating people up of no reason." Johnny said

"But I didn´t"

"I´ve known Tara for years, she wouldn´t say anything bad to anybody."

I understood they weren´t going to believe me so I kept quiet.

End of flashback.

"Did you…"

"Could you stop asking so many questions?" I shouted and stood up. "I don´t want to talk about it anymore." Then I went upstairs to change clothes.
