I woke up slowly, my eyes burning and refusing to open. My body was in pain, and my heart was pounding too. After a few moments Of trying to wake up, I finally woke up. I looked in horror, Examining where I am. I was in a tunnel, and I could hear cars passing outside. "How did I get here?" I asked Myself. 'I have to call for help' as I begin to rise, and my body still hurts greatly.  After I got up, I started walking slowly, with the cars still Lightly passes by my side, and some people even shout to me and call me disgusting names, for interfering with them and walking on the road. I have no idea how long it took, And I walked just walked slow like a turtle.

I found myself Outside the tunnel. I started looking for a safe place, I looked to the sides, and suddenly I saw a sidewalk. I started walking faster towards there, to escape as fast as possible From the road. I got on the sidewalk and started walking. On the way I signaled for taxis to stop, but no taxi bothered to stop. I kept walking, looking for a place where I could stop, snatch a little something to eat and drink some water. I was hungry, And thirsty, and who knows how long I was in this tunnel, and if anyone in general was looking for me. After a few quick glances to the sides, I suddenly noticed a small café on my right. It was not far though, but Not close either. I stopped, staring at the café for a few moments. From a distance I could see That it was lit, and amazing smell of sweet pastries came from it.

It Made me much hungrier than before. I started walking faster, shorting my way through the bushes, to get there as quickly as possible. Indeed, after a while, I stood right in front of the café. I hurried to the door, put my hand on the handle, and smelled again the amazing and sweet scent. I opened the door slowly. In front of me is a nice little country place. With few small tables And chairs. Not too fancy, and not too simple. Inside, compared to Outside, it was warm and cozy. The color of the walls indeed Already began to peel, adding to the rural atmosphere and made the place look old and ancient. On the walls There were also large pictures of women and men, side by side. In one picture they sat, in another they danced.

And in the counter area there were pictures of foods like Cheese Cake, and also of hot drinks like chocolate and coffee. I hurried to the counter, the order was already in my mouth, but very quickly I was very disappointed. There was no one at the checkout. And the place itself was empty. 'Strange, on the sign outside It says 'Open' I thought. "Hello? Is anyone here? " I asked loudly, waiting for an answer. But the place seemed to be empty, and even felt A little abandoned. In the background I could hear country music Suddenly, and I started trying to figure out where it was coming from. I turned around, until I suddenly noticed that the counter has a small radio. 'It's weird, I did not see it previously. And I'm sure it was off before, too a few moments.' I thought, as I turned it off. I started making my way to the kitchen, until suddenly The radio turns on again, this time at a higher volume, and the thing made me jump in my place. 'What the hell?' I thought to my self, Frightened. But I did not devote too much time to it, and simply I ran to the kitchen.

The kitchen was bright too, and there were pastries sweets ready on the trays, waiting to be served. There were also a few pre-made cups of coffee, and drinking bottles that no one has touched yet. And some cups that no one has washed Yet. 'It's like the place is deserted.' I thought to myself, while walking towards the pastries. 'Well, there's no one here anyway, And I know I should not take without paying but ... I am so Hungry ... 'I thought, as I started eating them one by one one. After a few moments I finished a whole tray of cheese cake, and already I was full. 'Now I'll just take something to drink, and get get away From this place 'I thought. I started walking around the kitchen, Looking for a bottle of juice from which I can drink. I found a bottle of orange juice on the counter, which was ready to be served to someone, but no one submitted it or invited it. I took it quickly, opened it, and started drinking. I finished it very quickly, and laid it back on the counter. After that I hurried to leave the kitchen. When I stood up Again at the counter, I started to feel very bad about myself.' I have to leave them money, I can not afford not to.' I thought, and after that I put my hand in my pocket of my light blue jeans, taking out a few dollars.

I started calculating them, looking at the price list sign on the side. "Well, thirty Dollars, I think it will be enough." I murmured to myself, as I put the money next to the cash register, hopefully someone takes it. After that I made my way to the door. I opened the door, then went out and closed it behind me. Outside it's already starting to get a lot colder. And I was wearing was wearing a green tank top, filthy light blue jeans, and sneakers. My blond hair flew in the wind, it was scattered, so it also hid My eyes, even though I did not have a pony at all. The color of my eyes is blue, I inherited them from my dad. 'Oh, Mom and Dad, they are Probably worried and do not know what's going on with me 'I thought, worried. I hugged myself, as I kept walking, looking for a safe place. A place where I can find a phone, and I can call my parents, let them know that I am safe. Surely everyone is looking for me, and I am walking around here, in a place I've never seen or been to.

I do not remember what happened, if it happened. I just remember that before all this, I was on my way to my riding class. I'm been riding horses for nine years Years. I have participated in Olympic competitions, and even have my own mare named Onyx. A beautiful black mare, Arabian breed and tall. I keep Her at a school riding center, and I would usually come every day to take care of her. Even in the same stable where Onyx lives, called 'Fly', teaching it to children and youth who come to the barn. I took Riding business seriously, and of course I also loved playing sports. When I was little, I used to dance hip hop, I was also always thin so losing weight was not Something that interested me. I've never complained about my body, like most the girls in my age. This is what Mika, my best friend, Love me.

That I do not judge myself. That I am honest with myself and protecting myself. Mika has curly black hair and brown eyes. She's tall, Very, and still prefers to go with heels. And there's also Kelly, my childhood friend, She always used to judge herself, until she grew up and decided to accept herself. I was with her at every stage and supported her. Hey, what are friends for? And there is my boyfriend, a colleague, that we are also childhood friends, and have been a couple for the past two years. he has Short black hair, and green eyes. He is like me, athletic and prefers to spend most of his free time in the gym. Or sometimes go out with friends for a drink at the bar.

I also have a little brother named Mike, and a big sister named Maria. Mike and I quarrel almost all Time, and Maria is barely involved in my life. When we were little we were like glue, And that has changed. I kept walking, pondering thoughts of my 'perfect' life. Which were as perfect as they could be. And as I was walking, I suddenly noticed the large building, which was a few feet to my right. As I approached, and the fog that was In the area has began to fade, I realized that this was ... "A mall! It's a mall. Good... I was expecting a hostel or something, but this mall is great too. I'm sure I'll find a phone there and I can contact my family. " I mumbled to myself, As I walk faster towards the mall, unaware that from the moment I enter there - my life will change completely.
