Chapter 33 Drunk And Numb

• Walking in my mum is sitting alone, I talk to her and find myself relaxing. I drink too much, but it helps to numb everything and helps me forget about Joel and the question of what his sick game is this time.
• I’m happy though, according to my mum Ivy is staying with friends tonight so Joel shouldn’t be here. If I had known, I would have come by sooner. I watch the hours pass as I get too drunk.
• “Bed Harley, before your dad comes home and sees you a mess.” Her words have me laughing, but I nod and I stand as I do the door opens and I hear my dad laughing, he walks through to Jasper, and his eyes widen.
