Do you ever feel as though you were having the best day In the world? That, this day couldn't get bad? Well, thats what me, Katelyn, thought.
No one was teasing me, no hard school work, I was actually sitting with somebody this lunch and everyone loved how I looked. Yep, everything was great, well thats what I thought.
You know how, when you were little, you used to go to the beach and just as soon as It started, your Mum tells you 'We have to go'? Thats how It felt for me.
Everything went so fast all of a sudden and when Mum told me the bad news, It went so slow. As If time was teasing me.

"What did you say Mum?" Tears were forming In my eyes "D-dads gone...He got killed In an accident" Mum was crying, and so was I "But...He cant be dead!" I yelled. I had always thought It was Impossible to hurt Dad, let-a-lone kill him "You have the wrong person! Your Wrong Mum! Your--" Mum cut me off "Katelyn! Please..." I shut up after that.
We got home to our white wooden farm house with the red roof that glittered In the sun. I had always liked that red roof, but now I didn't really care. Nothing mattered now. Now that Dad was gone.
We got Inside and saw Chris, with his head In his hands. Obviously he had heard. "Chris?" Mum peeped up but Chris got up and walked past both of us. I didn't blame him, because thats what I would of done.
That night we all ate In silence. It was weird having one chair empty. I mean, I was used to having one chair empty for when Dad was late, but some part of me knew we would always be late...always be gone.

It was like when Dad was really late one time, and Mum was furious.
"You promised me you would be home early!" Mum yelled. You could see the nervousness In Dad's face "I'm sorry Emma, they kept me there" Mum shook her head "You have to learn to say no! Your hopeless! Hopeless!" And she went off Into the bedroom and cried.
Dad stood there and shook his head, while Chris stood up and went outside, probably going for a smoke. I sat there and watched Dad shake his head, and when he decided to move, he got his keys and went outside.

But that was a long time ago, and It wasn't the same as this.
After dinner Chris went outside, again, and Mum started washing up. I knew she didn't want any help so I went outside to talk to Chris.
"Hey? Chris?" I said
"Mmm?" Chris was lighting up a cigarette, but was having trouble because of the wind
"Do you really think Dad's dead?" Chris laughed "Katelyn, hes gone and he will never come back, just face It" I looked away and felt Chris' eyes on me "Hey, I'm sorry for saying It, but Its true Isn't It? I mean, you heard It didn't you?" I nodded, despite myself.
Chris and me, sat on the front step of the house but didn't talk. We made a couple of glances to each other but never spoke.
I looked out at our town. I forgot how beautiful the country side of Charleville was. We moved here from Cobar In NSW when I was 12 years old. Now I'm 16 and I'm still finding It hard to make friends. I wondered why.
I had always thought It was because of my scar on my face, because It was an ugly scar. Sammy Miles, the 'popular' girl In the school never liked me. Even If I tried to say hello to her she would sniff and walk away. I gave up after a week and thought that she was brought up by a couple of sour lemons.

Chris got up and walked Inside, but I stayed there. I could almost see the country houses, even In the dark. I thought about Dad and how he might walk from out of the shadows and hug me, but even If I hoped I knew It would never happen.
I sighed and got up "I'm sick of this" I said out loud, to no one In particular "I really am" And with that I walked Inside the house with a tear of my face
