This is the free writing I did over lock-down
WHY
“ why would you do that Izzy why why why” Mum says in a voice that says don't answer back or else… I walk off to my bedroom and start to cry. I sigh, making Ruby jump. “ Sorry Rubs but Mum just blamed me for smashing her favorite vase. It wasn't me I’m sure of it” I say all of that too loud and by the end of the sentence Ruby is hidden away under my bed. I reach for her silky fur and when I’m sure I've got her in my grasp I slowly pull her out from under the bed. Slowly she resists and I can get her fully out from under the bed. When I pick her up to give her a hug, ten years worth of dust is attached to her smooth black fur. I flick all the dust off which takes me a while and when half of the dust is off my Dad comes in and sits next to me pushing Ruby off my lap. I grab her back quickly, “ Izzy I know that you didn’t break that vase, but you have to tell your Mother that. She won’t believe me” I sigh, again Ruby leaps off my lap. It really feels like nobody likes me I think. I slowly walk down the stairs. What I see shocks me. The cat is sitting on the table where the vase was and she is licking her paws. The cat did it. Seriously. How will I tell Mum, she won't believe me. Oh well.
