Remember?
I remember when Anabell was new to our school. All the boys teased her because she was different. They called her Turkey because her last name was Tuckey. However I also remember that I was the only one who was nice to her. We'd play games on the log while everyone else went off and did their own thing. But when Grace came along, things were different and Anabell soon became Graces best friend. Anabell was never my best friend, but we were close. It upset me when she went away, she got what she wanted, she didn't need me anymore, she'd been accepted.
One day when everyone was playing at lunch, I just sat on the wooden fort and watched. It opened up a new world for me. I saw everything in a different light. I was sitting back and I realised that nothing was as it seemed. What we did day in, day out, wasn't really important. I began to see the bigger picture. But my childness did not simply disappear. Occasionally I'd pretend I was watching T.V and I'd move to see what else was on, as if i was changing the chanel. Soon Rita (Graces sister) came along and we sat pretending together.
She may have taken my friend but I had taken her sister.
REVENGE IS SWEET
