We're moving
You see, me and mom had just decorated the mirror room, it looked lovely, Akina loved it, she fell asleep straight away on the suitcase bed. We laughed at her snoring, we ate some sweets and brought my laptop into the room to watch a movie, it was Friday, so we stayed up really late. It was 3.15am, we heard dad staggering through the door, "I'll handle this, just stay in here, I'll tell him you were at Nadia's." she put the mirror into place, and walked downstairs, "Well you're home early," she said, sarcastically, "an hour early, should be in the Guinness Book of Records. Want some coffee?" I heard the kettle, "I know what you've been up to," said my dad, trying to be smart, I froze, the Akina thing or something else? Dad's staggering had awoke Akina, so she yawned and walked over to me, "you've been seeing that guy." "What guy?" "Don't pretend you don't know, James, from the bar, claims you had a chat about 'relationships' and 'understanding', if you ask me, it looks like-" "Oh shut up you idiot! You come in here steaming of beer, giving me all this talk about meeting people behind your back! I wish I was, Cailan, I wish I had the confidence to report you, the only thing right now that's keeping me sane is our children!" I heard my dad slam down his beer bottle,
"Where is she anyway?"
"She has a name."
"Like I'd care."
"Don't you dare say that."
"Make me." my dad was acting all childish now, "We're leaving," she said, unexpectedly, "I'm sick of you, your look, your smell, your attitude, every god darn thing!" my dad was silent, "Okay, see how you manage without me, you'll be on your knees in no time, begging at my fee-" "I wouldn't beg at this door never mind your feet! I mean it, we're leaving and I'm taking Alexa, we'll stay at Jules's, somewhere we'll be treated with respect." she called for me, I was about to leave, but not without Akina, I walked down with her, scared stiff, "I thought you told me you'd trashed that dog!" he shouted, grabbing Akina off me! I know I shouldn't have, but I kicked him... And then, Me and mom ran out of the house, no bags, no nothing, only a pair of handy car keys. Dad didn't call for me, shout for me, he just didn't care. So we're at Jules's now, I'm with my cousins they love Akina, Eliza my 6 year old cousin is obsessed with her, she takes after my love for dogs.
I know that if someone was reading this, they'd think I was some randomer that wanted a cheap pet, and when I found Akina, I'd adore her until she was a dog and then just abuse her, but I'm not that sort of person, I study dogs, and I've handled them, one of them, a big Alsatian called Dexter when the dog show was on at Benvardin Kennels, my friend Lexi came with me, she had a Lab x Collie, I came to watch her, as I didn't have a dog, but there were a few policemen there to keep guard, along with their Alsatian, I didn't ask, they handed the lead over to me and I came joint 2nd with Lexi.
Malin's looking at me (he's Eliza's big brother) he thinks I'm writing about him, well- I am now, but I need to go, we're having chocolate cheesecake, and I guess I'll just leave Akina here to sleep....
