Chapter Five

no description

It didn't take long for Dad to get impatient. He beeped his horn several times at the car in front of us. I wondered if we would ever get to our new house. At the rate we were going, we probably wouldn't. With half an hour left of the long-winded car trip, I was bored as anything, and even more fed up than Dad-something which I did not think possible.

Flashback:

"Dad, I'm bored!" I whined.

"Not much longer now sweetie,"

I hated waiting, always had. All I could think about was my Mum's outstretched arms, ready to hug me. Dad's phone rang. As he took it out, his eyes widened.

"Dad's what's wrong?" I asked.

He held up a hand, walked upstairs, and shut the door.

I pressed my ear up to the door. The conversation was muffled. But I could hear him crying. Finally, he opened the door. I stared at him as tears dribbled down his red blotchy face. I had seen him cry before. It was kind of an odd feeling. I didn't know whether or not to comfort him.

"Is Mum still coming home?" I asked, crossing my fingers.

He stared at the ground.

"We need to talk about something kiddo," Dad said, his voice shook, "you know the trip your Mum went on for work?"

I nodded eagerly.

"The promotion?" I asked.

"Yeah, the promotion," He said, "That was the hospital. Your mother, she...she had an accident."
