He made it! Ok he didn’t get in the car so I had to walk him to DCU but I refuse to accept any criticism. All the @CTYI Zoology kids loved him. Thanks to @SpillzHinch for looking after him and to @AoifeMurphy01 for the fab photos. @DCU

Chapter 12: Wind blows through the window, rustling pages on the desk and furthering their unease. They jump as their cat leaps through the window; they pick it up and cuddle it close.

Chapter 11: Suddenly, they hear an explosion coming from inside the house, their anxiety overwhelms them, so they grab a pen from the desk and click it to calm down.The tinny sound of rain plinking on the metal roof of the shed warns them that the weather is growing worse.

I hate my stupid house. on the website it called the house cosy, sweet and peaceful. Peaceful, maybe but In no way cosy. I decided I had to leave. I didn't pack anything, I wanted an entirely fresh start. I daydreamed of warm sand, crystal sea and graceful palm trees.
