Casey tired feet paced up and down the small corridor of a fairly dull darkened room. Casey stood there watching intently for the post to arrive
with the news of her husband whereabouts. The clock chimed a quarter past nine, just at that very minute the postman posted Casey's mail through her letterbox. My word he could have taken more care of the letter before dropping it through the letterbox She thought the envelope looked like it had been  tampered  with and she wasn't very happy with his service she thought about complaining  directly to the head office, but She'd had rather a lot on her mind. She quickly opened the letter and nothing could prepare her for the shock she was about to receive.
She sat down on the fireside chair which was rather dull and old looking.
She just sat their for hours gazing out of the window the sun shone brightly into her living-room touching her forehead with vibrant rainbow colors eventually she came to her senses. The tears flowed like an empty teapot her heart filled with grieve. And now she was all alone in the world with two young children and how on earth would she be able to provide for them. Her future seemed so bleak the house she had occupied had been repossessed by the court, it was worth a few million, a the house needed to be sold immediately to pay her husband's creditors. their were a couple of tenements left to rent and the money made from that was to secure her future especially now that she faced living on her own with her too small children. The doors opened wide and Casey made her way down the long hallway with all her belongings the two children screamed rather noisily.

"Oh children will you please be quiet."  Suddenly there was a hush of silence fell upon the house for the last time.  and she turned the rusted keys in the lock She just knew in her heart of hearts that she would need to let go of the past and move forward with her life. of course it would be a struggle but she had faith as small as a mustard seed she certainly needed all her friends at a time like this. Casey couldn't believe her husbands betrayal she had always thought of him highly but now her morals had slowly slipped away for good O What would become of he and her two small children, where would they go now. Casey had no family except one aunt which she never met she lived in a capital city called Edinburgh up in the west coast of Scotland.  Aunt Ruby never made a point of getting to know Casey or her children. She lived in a small cottage which had two bedrooms and rather a large kitchen.
Their wasn't enough bedrooms to accommodate her or the children..


At last spring arrived and the nights were getting longer again. Casey had settled in her new house up in Spring-wood valley, a long stream ran through the woods with little red robin bobbing about on the stones. this year had been difficult  for the family but soon everything was radically about to change their life's for good when Casey meets up with an old flame which she hadn't seen for years he'd played an important part of her life long ago but sadly they had drifted apart and now fate had almost brought them back together. But was it for the right reasons. Early next morning Casey made her way down the market street.
She violently pushed her way through a crowd. Casey needed time to gather her thoughts. About whether or not her old flame would cause her children to feel insecure.
Casey had no intention of uprooting their schools again.
She had to avoid bumping into Sam . Hours later when she had finished shopping. Casey and her children caught the number seven bus home to Spring-Wood valley. Finally Casey and the children arrived home feeling hungry. She collapsed on the sofa Her eyes wilted into a deep sleep.
She awoke to find her children had gone missing. Casey bolted out of the house to find Milly and tummy speaking to  a tall man in his late thirty's.
"Children,"  Come over here at once."
Milly burst into tears stamping her foot all the way home
Tommy sulked.
"Children haven't i told you not to speak with strangers."
" Yes.? Mummy."
"Now hurry along dears its getting late."
Soon mother dished out the dinner the children looked washed out so Casey took them both  upstairs and turned on their night lights she quickly read them both a story about the Chocolate dragon  and soon the children fell soundly asleep. Casey quietly opened her bedroom door. She slid into her bed crying herself to sleep. What would become of Casey and her two children.............


"You're not going to believe this," said Casey But my
Old flame has turned up out of the blue."
" Oh, really smirked her step sister Rose."
"Well, if that is your Attitude, sighed  Casey."
Soon after they rowed She left to catch the eight thirty bus to Glasgow. Casey felt utterly overwhelmed by the situation the last thing on her mind was an relationship after all she had the children to think about. A few days passed by'  Casey stood Lingering  over the vegetables at the market and  accidentally knocked over the barrow of carrots, quickly she scrambled to her knees looking for the rest of the carrots. She felt embarrassed as a group of young children laughed at her. The market had now been closed and Casey fought her way through the crowd.
Soon the rain began to pour down. It seemed ages before the bus arrived to take her home again.


At last the little red bus drove up the hill, and Casey put her foot forward on the platform.
"hello, Casey said the driver."
 Awkwardly  She glanced the other way and sat staring out of the window.
