Chapter 1
My parents are going to kill me! My best friend Cindy asked me to come with her to some kids party. I didn't want to go but she sort of begged me. I told my parents I was just going to hang on with some kid from school. Since I've been a good response kid, they said yes the first time I asked.
"But be home by eleven" OK? My mom reminded me.
I'm sure I won't be long, I said to her and had every intention of keeping that promise.
Little did I know that Cindy had plans of her own, when we get she got there, she drank every glass Of water that was shoved into her hands, she danced to her heart desires and for with older guys, I was babysitting her we were only fifteen and I was pretty certain that we shouldn't be partying; at least of all drinking I was aching to leave.

I removed my shoes and tiptoed to the stairs. I didn't want to wake anyone up so I could deal with my parents the next morning. But I didn't want to be caught red- handed. Moreover I didn't want them to see Cindy as a bad influence to me. Our house has four bedrooms. My brother's room was the first one when you reach the top of the stairs, opposite the guest room. Mum was across my parents further down the hall. The corridor was dark so I walked carefully to my room just then I heard a clicking of locks. It took me a moment to realize it was coming from my parents room.
Shit … I'm doomed for sure! It could be my mum, I think she is on her way to get milk or water from the kitchen I froze, thinking of my reason why I would be standing in the middle of the corridor at three in the morning when I
