Chapter One Gen 1






This is home...I looked at the manors surrounding me and the rich people sniggering at me. I didn't look like any normal person here, I remember looking out of the taxi when I got here and seeing people dress so formally thinking Oh Crap!


Anyway I could still live the dream of becoming an author. I would NEVER go back to Twinbrook I was driven out of tow But I'd fit in here I hoped.

I looked in the newspapers for a job, first time lucky, there was a job avalible for the journalisim career I grinned and took it things were looking up.




I went to the libary and worked on my novel Ice, I got paid $8 for each chapter I wrote, I loved the extra money! I wrote and wrote ignoring the cute boys playing Football Manager behind me.


I realised the time 5.30 my stomach growled I had been writing for hours! I saved my document on a USB and got home making Autumn Salad a great dish I loved since I was five. I remember my mother making it. I froze....she'd gone everyone had gone away from me. A tear rolled down my cheeks onto my salad. I mopped it up with my hankie and put on my Hello Kitty PJ's which smelled like home. I held back the tears this time and slept...life in Riverview would be an adventure I was sure of it....maybe one that I would not like but a memorable one
