PROLOGUE
May 26 2014
Yesterday my dad died. Now I Tomas Parker no longer have a father. My mother is distraught and so am I. I never knew what have a family member die would feel like. My grandma on my dad's side died before i was born so my family was dealing with that before I was born. The funeral is in a week I hope my mom stops freaking out by then.

Tomorrow I have plans to hang out with my friends I hope I can still go as my mom has been acting strange recently it's like she's going insane. She has been like this ever since my father died. I don't think she is ok. She probably needs some time to calm down. It's hard for her to calm down now she has tried everything but nothing has worked I'm scared for her. I hope she'll be ok.

My mom was taken to a mental hospital today. Her mental state had completely deteriorated. I'm living with my grandparents for now and I don't think i'll ever see my mom again. I'm scared and tired of this I don't want to live in fear that i'll never see my mom again.

I'll never see my mom again. I got a letter from the mental hospital saying that her mental state had deteriorated so much that nothing could fix it and she died. Right now i'm distraught and I don't want to think about my family right now especially since my little sister and little brother are now coming to live with my grandparents instead of my uncle. It's hard to live with my sister because she has ADHD. For now i'm just gonna stay at home in my room.

I'm excited for the fourth of July but i'm also sad that my grandparents won't let me watch or participate because I recently turned 15 and they think i'm too old for it so I have to stay in my room which is fine by me because that's all I do anyway. They are letting my sister and brother do it but I have can only watch the neighbors through my little window in my room.

Tomorrow is Christmas and I am probably not going to do anything. My grandparents focused on my sisters this year and got me one present. I don't think i'm going to get anything from "Santa" but if I do i'll probably get socks not like I don't have enough of those. They never told me that Santa wasn't real. I don't know why they never told me especially since I was 14 when I started living here. I don't know why they treat me like this but I hate it.

I was scared this would happen and it did. My birthday is tomorrow and my grandparents don't care once again. I don't care either but i wish they would actually show me that they care in some way, I doubt they do. At this point all they pay attention to is my sister and brother while i'm in my room doing nothing because that's all they let me do. I'm tired of this i'm just gonna go to bed.
CHAPTER ONE
Today is my Birthday but as I do everyday I' just going to stay in my room. My plan is to go downstairs get some breakfast and go back to my room and stay there for the rest of the day. As I walked downstairs I saw my sister and brother eating fresh chocolate chip pancakes. I went to the table and tried to get some but my grandpa slapped my hand away "These ones are for you siblings we made you your own" he said whilst scolding me. He showed me my own which were whole grain blueberry waffles. He doesn't know or care that I hate blueberries and whole grain foods. He didn't buy the stuff for me he took some old whole grain waffle mix and week old blueberries and made waffles.
He didn't care if I wanted that or not he just wanted to get rid of old food that no one was going to eat. I got a plate got a couple waffles and went to the table. My grandma works a lot and isn't usually home so I was surprised to see her sitting at the table. I went tried to eat as fast as possible but once I finished my grandpa stopped me and said "Tomas, ehhh I need you to take a shower we have a lot of stuff to do today". In my head I was mad because I can't be an introvert today but outside I just went with It. I felt like this time they actually forgot my birthday.
