What the hell?

What happened?
Are you possessed today?


No, I don't care if you don't want to wear your knickers. You WILL WEAR THEM TO SCHOOL.
No. I don't care if your other au pair let you watch tv all the time. Your mum does NOT like when you watch tv in the mornings you will NOT watch tv and eat. especially seeing as you tipped ICE CREAM ALL OVER THE SOFA LAST NIGHT.
No. I do NOT care that you apologized badly to your sister, you didn't mean it. You do NOT belt her. Even if she did make a stupid face at you.


What the hell are you doing up a TREE?? WHY THE HELL would you ask your little sister to SAW a piece of wood for you? Why the hell are you SAWING WOOD FOR HIM. With a SAW! You just turned SEVEN!
No I DO NOT believe you when you tell me your mum is fine with this. I DO NOT.

Night terrors.

All of these night terrors in all of these books are leaking and tip tapping on my head and creeping. They tip tap and scuttle and bang like a drum in my head! Sometimes they tick like a clock. But mostly they rattle their spines and pages and scream their story out. They all have a story to tell
But I wish they wouldn't,
not tonight.

I hate to sleep alone.
