Third Journal entry


\

This is when jack broke my glasses.
Dear Journal,

I have never been so scared in my life, nor have I been alone for this long. Can we just be rescued already? I miss my auntie and I miss the food that she makes and I miss being safe. When we first landed on this island I thought that it was going to be nice and peaceful, well I was wrong. I was so used to the fighting with the war going on back home that I was ready to be somewhere else. I think I would love it here if I had my auntie with me, she would know what to do and how to comfort me when I am in distress. Now I am starting to wonder if we will ever be saved and if we will see our families again. Hopefully we will soon, I don’t know how much longer I can take all of this. A lot of people seem to make fun of me because of the way I look. I cannot help the way that I look; at least auntie will always love me. Jack always picks on me and makes fun of me; he even broke my glasses. Only if he didn’t have a say in anything and wasn’t on this island with us. When I was asking the boys for their name jack said, “Shut up fatty you talk too much.” It hurts, but then I think about being saved and having my auntie with me and then it all gets better. Whenever he tries to bring me down I just think what goes around comes around, he will get his share. I am glad that I at least have Ralph, I always help him come up with ideas and I always help him make decisions for the group. I know that he needs me and I for sure need him, only if he would stand up to Jack and tell him to stop hurting my feelings. I know things will get better in due time, I just have to get through this with the help of my friends. I cannot wait till the day that I see my auntie again.
