I told him about my friendship with Farrah and Kelly. I was nervous because I wanted him to meet them but they were better for him than I was. I knew ...is mother would not approve of me, but either of the other girls would be perfect in her eyes. ‘Come here,’ Ross whispered to me and I climbed onto his lap. He held me to his chest. I loved listening to his heartbeat. ‘Why are you so worried about my Mom? She has nothing to do with us.’ Ross assured me. I wanted to believe him, but I’d gone to. Then opened the door. The house was very dark inside. If it wasn't for my flashlight I would not have been able to see a thing as I walked through the house. Inside the room was filled with dust. Huge spider webs surrounded near-by corners of the house. Three doors stood in front of me. Each room was empty so I had to choice among them. I chose the room on the right.

I’m in total shock. My natural instinct is to push him away.
