Lucys childhood

I walk sneaking in to get into my house because my shoes is really full with soil. This is because Finn took me to the forest to get see a dog labour.

"How much I have to you that no more go to the forest?" Dad suddenly standing in front of me and raises his eyebrows at me.

"I-I-I just saw a dog labour and it was really cool. That dog mommy got five kids." I said to dad.

"Honey, you better take a bath and change your clothes okay." Dad sighs.

"Okay I will open my shoes." I said and open my shoes.

I tried to open my shoes but I cant untie my lace. Dad let out a sigh and kneel down then untie my shoelaces.

I take my shoes and bring upstairs to my room.

"I will forgive you now if you want to wash your shoes!" Dad shouts.

"Yes dad!" I shout back.

I walk enter my room and throw my shoes to the bathroom. I wash my hand and my face then change my clothes.

Suddenly a pebble hit my window room. I turn my face and Finn give me a sign to open my window.

"Finn stop it!" I yell at him.

"Do you wanna see another dog labour? Dean told me that he usually saw that near the river." Finn shouts.

"My dad told me that I have to wash my shoes so I cant go!" I shout back.

"Okay, what about tomorrow?" Finn shout back.

"Okay." I nodded.

"Okay!" Finn closes his window.

I walk back to my bathroom and start washing my shoes. I lived only with my dad. My parents divorced when I was two and my dad got me since my mom doesnt want to take a big responsibility.

After that I place my shoes near my window so the sun can get in. I turn my face to my window and see Finn is playing with water tube while watering his backyard and singing.

"Is it fun?" I shout.

"Yeah, you wanna come?" Finn asks.

"Wait for me!" I shout and went out from my room.

I walk downstairs and about to go out from my house until my dad stop me by standing in front of me.

"Where are you going to again now?" Dad asks me.

"Finn's house. I promise I wont wear any shoes right now. Bye daddy!" I grin and run off.

"Madison!!!" Dad yells.

I'm still laughing and running until I got into Finn's backyard and suddenly my feet slide the water tube and I fall down with laying flat on my chest on the grass.

"Ouch." I groan.

"Be careful, Maddy!" Finn laughs.

I tried to stand up but I feel like my knees hurt. I sit down on the grass and my knees bleeding.

"Hey your knees bleeding. Stay there." Finn says to me and run to enter his house.

I'm just sitting down on the grass until I'm crying because this is hurt and my dad must be mad at me after this because I ran away from him.

"It's hurt." I'm crying.

"Here I got you." Finn brough first aid box and sit down in front of me. "My mom said if you're bleeding, you have to use this." Finn says and take a plaster.

"Daddy, it's hurt!" I'm crying.

"Stop crying, Maddy." Finn wipes my tears away then place the plaster on my knees.

I just raise my eyebrows as Finn blow my knees after he covered it with plaster. "What are you doing?" I raise my eyebrows.

"I watched in tv when a girl got like this, and the boy did like what I did." Finn says to me.

"What movie?" I frown.

"Love Actually." Finn simply said.

"My dad warned me not to watch that movie." I said to Finn.

"Why?"

"Because it's an adult movie and I'm not an adult."

"But my mom watched that then cried." Finn says.

"See? That's not a movie for children. My dad said that children's movie is always happy." I said to Finn.

"Yeah. Hey you wanna watch The Incredibles with me?" Finn asks me.

"It's not an adult movie right?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Nope. It's superhero. My mom bough me the cd." Finn says to me. "Come on, Madison." Finn pulls my hand.

I stand up and start walking but I feel my knees hurt so I stop my way. Finn turns his face at me and frowns.

"My dad will mad at me if he knows this." I sigh.

Finn walks closer to me and shows me his back. "Jump to my back." Finn said to me.

I jump to his back and he lift me up on his back until we got into his house and he place me on the couch in living room.

"Mom, where is my superhero cd?" Finn shouts and walks to the kitchen.

I just sit down on the couch until I found the cd that Finn looking for. Finn walk back to the living room and looking for his cd.

"This one?" I ask Finn.

"Yes!" Finn takes that cd and start playing it.

"Got it, honey?" Finn's mom walks in.

"Yeah got it, mom." Finn nodded.

"Alright, have fun. Oh there is a bucket of ice cream in fridge." Finn's mom says to us.

"Do you want ice cream? Well, I want to. We can share." Finn says and walks back to the kitchen.

Finn walk back to living room and bring a bucket of ice cream and two spoon then sit down next to me as the movie begin and we eat that ice cream together.

"Carole, do you still have the catalogue about the shipping firm?" Dad walks in. "That's better. Watch movie than go to the forest and disturb wild animal there." Dad says to us.

"Oh hey. Yes, I'm still have. You still want to move?" Finn's mom asks dad and then they both walk off.

"You wanna move?" Finn asks me.

"Nope." I shake my head. "Maybe it's my dad's office or something." I simply said.

"Okay." Finn nodded and turn his face back to the tv.

So do I. I turn my face back to the tv and continue watching this movie with eating the ice cream.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I open the door of my house as the skies goes darker and night is coming over. Dad ever said to me that before the sun goes down, I have to go home so I went back home after playing with Finn.

"Dad, dinner is ready?" I walk in.

"Dinner time is in one hour, Maddy." Dad says to me.

"What is this?" I ask as I look at a catalogue.

"Oh it's shipping catalogue. We will move to London in two days." Dad smiles at me.

"England?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Yeah, I got a promotion job there and we will live in a big apartment and you can choose the best school you want to go. Isnt that cool?" Dad grins at me.

"So it means that we will leave Canada?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Yes. We will move to a new place, honey. It will be amazing and you'll have a lot of friends there." Dad says to me.

"Does Finn and his mom also will move?" I ask.

"No, they stay here. His mom is still have work here." Dad says to me.

"When they will move?" I ask.

"I dont know. Well, I already packed some of your stuff. You're hungry right? I will cook you a dinner okay." Dad strokes my hair and walks to the kitchen.

I just being quiet and walks upstairs to get into my room. Will I find a new friend there? I dont know.

But I really love Montreal. I know that dad told me that I was born in Manchester and he brough me here after my parents divorced so which mean that I grow up in Montreal.

I let out a sigh and sit down on my desk and looking at the window. From the opposite I can see that Finn is doing something on his desk.

I just sit down on my desk and curious what he is doing until he shows me his drawing book and he drew me and him with words 'Finn and Madison forever'.

I built a smile on my face and give him a thumb up. Finn smiles back at me and take off his drawing book and seems like he wrotes something there.

He then shows me his drawing book and wrote 'do you like that?'. I take my drawing book and my colour pen and answer him by write 'I like it'.

I could see that Finn cant stop jumping and smiles happily. I roll my eyes and close the curtain to cover my window.

Will be a window like that in my new apartment in London? A window that can comminicate me with the world? I just hope that it will be.

I sigh and walk to my bed and lay my body there. I just hope that I will find a new friend there.

Finn's POV

I Jump happily when Madison said she likes that picture that I made for her. I turn my face back to my drawing book and write 'I like you'. I turn my face and ready to show that line but she close her window and cover up her window with her curtain.

"Finn, dinner is ready!" Mom yells from downstairs.

I hide my drawing book inside my bag and walk off from my room to downstairs. I walk to the dining table and mom is preparing the dinner on the dining table.

"Here I made your favorite food. So how was the movie?" Mom asks me.

I remember about what mom and Madison's dad said about moving. "Mom, Madison wont moves right?" I ask mom.

"Honey, she will moves to London in two days because her dad got a promotion job there." Mom says to me.

"What? Then she wont be live here anymore?" I frown.

"Yeah maybe. I dont know." Mom says. "What happened, Finn?"

"She is my wife and she cant move like that." I frown.

"Your what?" Mom frowns.

"My wife. I got married with her two days ago in Josey's house and Josey is our son." I said to mom.

"Honey, you're too little to talk about relationship. You know nothing about love. I know that she is your best friend and you must be sad because of that." Mom half-smiled at me.

"Can we move to London too? Where is London by the way?" I ask mom.

"It's in England, Europe." Mom says to me.

"How far from here to London?" I ask mom.

"I dont know, but it's really far. It takes 7 hours for flight. But dont worry, you can email her or send her a letter." Mom smiles at me.

"My letter will arrived in London?" I ask.

"Yes, honey. Now go eat your food." Mom says to me and place the food on my plate.

I nodded and start eating my dinner. Yeah my letter will arrive in London soon.
