Chapter 1

Welcome to My World

Okay don’t get me wrong. I love my mom to death but she’s no Iggy (sorry for my Maximum Ride talk.) Actually compared to her she makes Max look like a gourmet chef! (Again sorry.) I’m pretty sure the only thing she can make is water. So I wasn’t so excited when my mom said she was making dinner.

“Okay is it going to eat me if I don’t eat it first?” I asked timidly as I sat myself down at the small island in the middle of our kitchen. My mom rolled her eyes and scooped what looked like Mac &Cheese from a pot.

“Oh hush,” she said plopping a spoonful on my plate, “and just try it.” I slowly picked up a spoonful of the goop and shoved it in my mouth. I shut my eyes and waited for myself to gag. Only I felt no sudden need to puke my brains out. The cheesy noodles melted on my tongue and no not like acid.

“Well….” Asked my mom impatiently

“Mmm!” was all I could say. My mom’s entire face lit up like the fourth of July.

“I made it myself.” I looked behind her at the empty box of Easy Mac and this time I rolled MY eyes.

“Okay can I have some more?”

“Ab-so-lutely!” My mom always does this thing where she breaks up a word into separate parts. She practically danced her way to the stove and back. I could tell this was a big accomplishment for her. MY dad was the chef around the house but with him always away on business half the time he’s barley been able to stay home let alone cook. Dad.

“Honey is the food okay?” I hadn’t realized that I had frozen with a spoonful of Mac & Cheese halfway to my mouth. I shook my thoughts of and smiled.

“Yeah sorry I kinda zoned out for a minute.” I said plunging the spoon into my mouth.

“Well okay when you’re done can you finish up the dishes?”

“Sure.” I shoveled the last spoonful into my mouth and plopped it in the sink. Why now? Why is the thought of my dad bothering me so much?
