Guys, it's getting even worse now. There's more clashing and screaming, but I can't make out what they're saying. We didn't even get to celebrate my birthday because of it!!! The party was called off because mum and dad couldn't agree on anything, from the invitations to the cake. Emma still got me a present though, it was a beautiful panda notebook and a pen with a fluffy panda thing at the top. She knows that pandas are my favourite animals and is amazing at gift giving. Even her smile is a gift in itself. 😊

Anyways, Every time it happens it always ends up with my dad storming out of the house, furious. I usually come out to the kitchen after that and see broken plates, bowls, dishes and more on the ground. My mum is also angry and crying. I always try to comfort her but it never works. I always ask what happened but every time she just says "It's fine, daddy just accidentally broke some plates." I want to ask her why they were screaming and why she was crying, but I know it isn't going to make her feel any better. I feel really bad, and I want to help, but I'm scared, too. I just hope everything gets better from now. It's always really awkward when dad comes back, they barely even speak a word to each other and I'm told to just stay in my room for the whole duration of him being here. I barely know anything about him! He was always kinda... intimidating. He was a strict man and never really had fun or talked with me. He seemed content with leaving his daughter alone to read. Sure, reading is great, but isn't family supposed to be better? I just wanna be a happy kid with no concerns!!! As far as I know, no one else's parents do this! I feel really alone these days... anyways, I need to go. I have school soon. Bye!
