Dear Diary,
Happy Birthday, Deirdre. We're sorry to tell you this, honey, but your mother and I aren't compatible.
My dad moved out today. He and Mom have been quiet the past few days, and I learned it was because they're separating but didn't want to tell me until after my birthday. It's 3 days past so I guess they thought it was time. You'd think they'd have discovered their differences before now. I mean, they've been married eighteen years. I'm sixteen. And now, they're not happy? Maybe it's just a phase they're going through. I hope.

School started this week and I'm so busy, I don't miss Dad quite as much, but it's not the same without him. I'm embarrassed to talk to my friends about my parents. So I haven't told anyone. I keep hoping...if I pretend everything is okay, maybe it will be.
