"Mum, how could you do this?" I asked,looking into my mum's pleading eyes.
"I didn't mean for this to happen! I thought..." I looked at her, so angry I was crying. "Thought what? That the moment you put my DISABLED brother on that plane that everything would be fine and he'd come back, magically reappearing at back at home? That you could just remove the hurting that I'd feel once you told me?"
"And to top that all of I'd find out the next day my brother was DEAD? In a plane that YOU put him on, this is all your fault!" I started punching my mum, angry at her stupidity. "I hate you! I lost my brother because of you!" Mum was crying, but I didn't care. I'd lost my brother, she should suffer some now. "Just because he's not your son! You wanted him out of the picture. So you booked him a flight ticket to the other side of my world. You didn't even think about me! How I'd feel. Why, mum, why? Why did you do this to him? And me." I said, staring deep into her eyes.

"Why didn't I get to say goodbye?"I screamed, then I walked out the door, crying my eyes out. I slammed the door, and didn't look back.
I was cold. So cold. I was under a bus shelter, the only things I had were my clothes, myself and the cold air. I wanted to go into the warmth of my home...but I couldn't. I couldn't live with my mum any more. She wasn't even my real mother. Just a phoney. I lay down on the bus shelter seat, I had no idea of the time. Late at night, obviously. I just sat there and cried, wanting my little brother. I had only found out he had died today. My mum just randomly came out with the fact that she had stuffed him on a plane, after I asked if she knew where he was. I was shocked...I can't remember much...other than that I just went crazy. And when I read in the newspaper about the plane cra
