Dear Diary (The Exchange #1) Read Online Free PDF Page B

going to America, I didn’t fit in at home anymore.
    A week before the baby was born; Joseph and Marie flew over to be with me when their granddaughter came into the world. They suggested that Mum and Dad come with me to the US, but neither could afford to leave their jobs and up sticks halfway around the world. That caused a lot of tears when it hit me how much I was leaving behind, but they both made it clear that there would always be a home for me with them, and they would always be there for me.
    Ellie was born the same day I received my exam results. I’d done better than I’d expected, but not as well as had been predicted. It didn’t bother me too much considering I had more important things to worry about. Two months later I boarded a plane with Joseph and Marie. Tyler and Aiden met us at the airport, surrounded by huge balloons. The elder King Brother looked nervous and uncomfortable, as if he were worried I was about to announce that it was all a joke, and he was really Ellie’s dad. Aiden on the other hand, was sunshine and smiles.
    I was home.

    Dear Diary,
    I can’t remember the last time I picked you up and had a flick through the pages, looking back on everything. These are the last few pages, so it’s only right I use them to catch you up.
    I’m currently taking a break from packing up Ellie’s things. She’s outgrown her cot, so we decided it’s time we get our own place so she can have her own room. Joseph and Marie insisted there was plenty of space for us, especially now that Tyler’s moved across state, but Aiden insists we need our own space. I love my in-laws dearly, but I agree with him.
    He graduated from university last month and has already secured a job at his old high school. He’s the new History teacher; I’m so proud.
    Yes, I said in-laws. Aiden and I got married on El’s first birthday. A small, intimate occasion with the Kings, my parents, Bethany, and Chad was the only way I wanted to become Holly King.
    I start my online degree classes in a couple of months, so everything is looking pretty rosy for our small family.
    In fact, life is perfect, or it will be when Aiden gets back from the new house, I have some news. El’s going to be a big sister.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
     
    M. B. Feeney is an army brat who finally settled down in Birmingham, UK with her other half, two kids and a dog.  She procrastinates on her assignments by listening to music of all genres and trying to get ‘just one more paragraph’ written on whichever WIP is open. She is also a serious doodler and a chocoholic. Writing has been her one true love ever since she could spell, and publishing is the final culmination of her hard work and ambition.
    Always having something on the go can often lead to ‘writer’s block’ which eventually gets dissolved by good music and an even better book.
