First I'll apologies for not posting in a while.
Secondly and more importantly I'll explain what has prompted me to post. Today at approximately 1:30 pm I was casually playing on the piano, working out the chords to "Safe and Sound" by Taylor Swift for my group performance in music. My brother had just gotten home from rugby and was telling me about how he scored a try, my sister was listening to me play and giving my advice. Suddenly my parents walk in, my mum on the verge of tears, they tell us that "they need to talk to us". We sit down, us kids on one couch, my parents on another. They look at one another and my dad says "well it's mostly your decision Paige", my mum quickly takes a deep breath and says "Dad and I are going to separate." I can't hear anything, my vision goes blurry, surely it's just some horrible dream. Mum keeps talking and I haven't a single clue as to what she said. My sister bursts into tears beside me, causing me to also. My parents continue to explain what's going to happen, how Mum is going to rent a house in town and is moving in on the 18th, how they know it's going to be difficult and confusing. They assure us that we had nothing to do with it and that they just no longer feel happy being together.
So that's it, after 26 years of marriage my parents are getting a divorce.
I can't really say it's unexpected but I'm terrified.
