Week 4 Empathy Skills

(FIRST EXPERIENCE OF LAURA MEETING CALVIN)


Diary Entry By Laura Marlin

Today I met my uncle Calvin,He is the complete opposite to what I expected,but bearing in mind I was expecting a completely fake "happy uncle who would give me new books everyday no mater what the cost was",Calvin is the complete opposite except he did offer to give me everything I needed like a phone and top toiletries.He looks just like a secret spy but is very loving and understanding that I have lived in an orphanage for all of my life.Calvin also shed light on his and my mothers past explaining how they had been split at an early age and didn't cross paths till they were in their twenties,but they both realised they had completely different lives and had grown up in different environments.I wish my mother was alive so I wouldn't have had to go to Sylvan Meadows and grow up so much like her I always wanted adventure but maybe I was wrong maybe having normality in your life is the best way to live.I know I've seen too much for one day!

Diary Entry By Calvin Redfern

When I opened the door I was greeted by a skinny man,clearly eager to escape from either the pelting rain or the spook the house portrayed during a storm or both.My niece,Laura,is quite the opposite to inquisitive or maybe it's nerves,Lottie didn't do me any favours she was growling with all her might luckily she calmed down.I put myself in Laura's shoes and too ease the tension and told her about me and her mother explaining how her mother and I had been split up at an early age,she seemed curious but kept her mouth zipped.I love her ever so much she is my blood relative after all,probably the last alive.I promise you Laura I'll take care of you till my last breath.


(WHEN LAURA AND TARIQ GET KIDNAPPED)

Diary Entry By Laura Marlin

I knew trying to be positive was impossible in this moment in time,we were kidnapped pure and simple and if me and Tariq live through this it will be a complete fluke.I feel as if all the hydration in my body has been sucked out by a giant vacuum.I know I should try to be optimistic but I see nothing good in this situation.The last thing I remember is seeing the blurred pizza boy uniform.I wonder if Calvin has noticed I've gone by now it's probably 3am now and as much I would like to sleep I know that would be equivalent to drowning in the cold waters of the Atlantic.Please Uncle Calvin come and save me,I need you now more than ever!!!

Diary Entry By Tariq

Guilty,that's what I feel if I hadn't made the tapestry she wouldn't be here,her life wouldn't be in danger.I didn't mean for her to be in danger I meant for her uncle Calvin Redfern,the famous detective to try and save me and put the Mutkhars in jail.I'm sorry Laura.I'm so sorry.
