the first week and I was happy to have a friend in a strange place. Then, for no reason, she stopped talking
to me and I felt very hurt and lonely for several weeks.
In the end I made some more friends and since I got to know them, I've been fine. Now Sophie is


having a disco party for her birthday next week and she has invited me. I don't want to go. My brother
says he heard someone say she only asked me because her parents said she had to. But my mum and dad
