Chapter 51

I hurried inside my room and closed the door behind me.

I slide down the door and sat on the floor.

What do I do?! I am sure Mrs Green must be suspicious of my behaviour. She will ask me about it later. But, I was not ready to face her. What if she reads my mind? What if she guesses what I am thinking of doing? I can’t believe what I am even thinking right now! I sound like a crazy person!

I didn’t even ask her about Bryan. She said that she was going to check upon him. I should have asked how he is but I was being so selfish that I ignored everyone.

It’s not my fault or is it my fault that I am this weak. Why can’t I be as strong as I show myself in front of Bryan?! Why can’t I argue or shout at dad as I do with Bryan?! Why can’t I raise my voice, keep my point, fight for my right in front of dad?! Why am I so weak?! If only I had little more strength to face dad, life would have been so easy. Easy enough to live a peaceful life and give a secure future to Liam too.
