My Family And Other Freaks (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
It involves doing a lion face like a roaring beast and sticking your tongue out to your chin as far as you can with your eyes wide open. If Damian saw me now, he’d never marry me. 1 p.m. Four days until school starts again. Suppose I’d better start reading My Family and Other Animals. 1:05 p.m. On second thoughts, I could just get Amber to tell me what it’s about. Busy people don’t have time for books. Feel a wave of sickness at the idea of starting school. Mental torture will resume. Plus Mom has bought me some hideous new pleated school skirts from ASDA! I bet Treasure’s school skirts aren’t from Asda. It’ll be John Lewis or Marks & Spencer or more likely Harrods. 1:30 p.m. The house is spookily quiet. Rick has taken Simon out and Phoebe is at Gran’s. Hold on, what’s that noise? It’s Mom and Dad whispering. I listen at the bedroom door. What’s Dad saying? Something about a hospital appointment? Who’s going to hospital? “Tomorrow at two,” says Mom. “I’m scared, Dave.”
