note:
I got mixed up with the moms name. In the last chapter I put her name as Gina. Who am I? Honestly, I'm so stupid. anyways, I changed it to Nila in the last one. it will be Nila now.

Claire

When I got home I was greeted by Nila who opened the door. Great I thought. Dad knows I don't like her as much, even if she is nice to me. He wants me to at least get used to her, but I don't know If I ever will.

Nash, Hayes, and Will seem to like her. They know I don't like her as a mom. But Nash & Hayes are always telling me to try to at least talk to her once in a while. Will thinks that I should talk to her when I'm comfortable enough.

Which is why I love him more, shh don't tell Nash or Hayes. Especially Nash. He tends to think everyone likes him most. Which is kind of selfish don't you think? Eh, I don't really care. That's just who he is.

"Hey Claire. Didn't know you went out." She said as she stepped aside letting me in. "Um, yeah. Where's my dad?" I asked as I headed for the living room. I know, not even saying hello, or making eye contact. I felt bad about saying "my", but it is true.

She followed behind me as I sat on the couch. I looked up at her for a quick second and saw a little glint of hurt in her eye. I felt guilty. I looked away and she responded.

"He went out to buy some things. Why?" She asked curious. "Oh, uhh, just asking. What about Nash and Hayes?" I asked again. "They're up in the game room." She answered again. I think this is the longest conversation we've ever had. I got up immediately.

"Well, I'll be in the movie room." I said and she nodded her head and went away to the kitchen probably.

When I got there, the projector was off so i turned it on, and went to go get one of my favorite movies of all time! Finding Nemo! My favorite character is dory. It was only 7:07 so I had some time before I had to go eat.

After I inserted the disk I waited for the ads to go by, and when it got to the selections, I pressed play. I put the controller down and ran out of the movie room, ran down the stairs, towards the kitchen, went to the pantry and finally found the goldfish! I got a bottle water and ran back to the movie room.

I walked in just in time for the movie to start. I sat down on one of the front row chairs and put my bottled water in one of the cup holders. Halfway through watching, I heard the front door open. I heard my dad greet Nila, I think maybe they kissed. Which kind of got me mad and sad.

But I tried to not think about it and watched dory being her usual funny forgetful self.
