I sat on my bed and looked at the pages of my diary... Empty.. Again.
My life was boring plain and simple. I flipped through my diary.. The most eventful thing in my life was the time I dropped my pencil in math class and almost got thrown out for getting up "um excused".
I sighed.. I needed something eventful to fill the empty pages and the void in my heart.
"Jessica! Dinners ready!!" My mother chimed
I got off my bed and tossed my diary on to my desk; no need to hide it.
"I'm coming!" I said
"Dinner smells amazing honey" said dad after kissing my mothers cheek.
"I made everyone's favorite!" Mother smiled setting a steaming plate of meatloaf on the table.
"Again?" I mumbled under my breath.
"What was that?" Asked mother.
"Nothing. It just looks delicious!" I said putting on a fake smile.
"Thank you sweetie"
Mother sat down at the table and took father and I's hands.
"Dear Heavenly Father please bless this meal we are about to receive."
I rolled my eyes; I'd never been a huge fan of religion, but mother insisted that to ensure a good future I had to have a "healthy relationship with the Holy Spirit".
"Amen" I played along.
