A Dangerous Friendship - Part 2
WOULD LIKE FEEDBACK!
I want to ask you for honest feedback. Feel free to be critical with asking questions, giving responses and therefore also feedback. In the end, I hope to really publish this story as a book. However, I am still far from that point, since some pieces of text are still missing, some suddenly need to be written out and some language errors still need to be corrected. So I am thankful to all those who are critical and can help me to further perfect my story in this way.
It is half past eight in the morning when Anne sits at the table with her mother, father and brother Joris, aged eight, for breakfast. She will go to school in 45 minutes, the last day has finally arrived. Anne has been looking forward to this for weeks. In recent weeks, time seemed to be slower than ever. But now the time has come, finally really the moment she is relieved of school and homework, she thinks. In her head, she has been thinking of fun things she wants to do this coming period for weeks. This past school year, she really missed her friends. Contact via social media was poor, but despite that, she is really looking forward to doing fun things with them. She's just not sure which of her friends she can do something with. During breakfast, she uses her time to make plans: βShopping with Jasmine and Katja, they love it,β she murmurs to herself. βAnd then a day at the zoo with Jessica, Fleur and Simone seems nice,β she continues beaming.
Right after school, she will send the girls a message to see if they can poke for it. With her thoughts on planning the summer vacation, Anne is annoyed immensely at the conversation her mother and father have during breakfast. Like all other years, they are in full discussion about who takes which days off during the summer holidays. Anne already knows exactly what time it is. Again this year, no outings for me and my brother, she thinks. Every year this happens the same thing, it's a recurring drama. In her mind, she sometimes refers to it as the drama of the summer. Why can't her parents just decide how and what? Anne sometimes wonders if her parents understand anything about parenting. Why argue so early in the morning at all?
