I am stuck in my room because I have been grounded – all day. It’s so not fair because I was supposed to go London Zoo with Annabel (who is my BFF by the way), but mum said after what I did last night that I’d be lucky if I ever left the house again. No way am I...

For a Moments Peace – Friday Fiction
