The Story of my Life

Chapter 5 A New Beginning

This weekend, was a change for me. I got to know Benedict a bit more. We both talked to each about our likes and dislikes for hours before we went to bed that night. I honestly think I'm starting to fall for him. Ben is so kind and caring. That is the kind of person he is.

I woke up in the morning and it was Saturday. I saw that he wasn't in his room so I asked his mom what he was up to. She said that Ben went to the store for a couple of things. It made me wonder what was going on but i just shrugged and went down stairs. When I got down there, I smell of pancakes, bacon and eggs. Then I went to the kitchen and I gasps. For not only was there breakfast made, but also there was a huge freaking blue teddy bear with a note. I opened the note and fell to my knees before crying. For it was a new job that makes twenty dollars an hour with Ben's parents as my bosses. I can continue my education but also work and make money after school sometimes. I will even work on the weekends and vacations from school. I will be able to leave my dead end job. I cried a bit before I ate my food that Ben made me.

After I ate, I went to work with my bosses. The office was great and my desk was just the best. It had a lot of  storage space and room on the top. I gratefully thanked his parents for this great opportunity and told them how life changing for me. Later on, when we came home, Ben and I sat under the tree and talked about how different my life was when my grandfather was alive.

Early in the evening, we then went to help at an homeless shelter to help feed the homeless and I gave a guy my last dollar cause he needed it more than I did. That night we went to bed and went to church the next morning. I was happy to be at church with a bunch of kind people. When we prayed, I prayed for a better life with Ben by my side.

Monday came and school was in full swing. Ben met and walked with me to all of my classes. Mrs. Duran was surprised that I was on time and gave me extra credit for every time I came in on time. Everything I was walking in the hallway, every one stared at me like I was pretty or something.

After, Ben says that he would call me when he got home. I nod and walked home to think about my future and to think. 'Am I falling for him? Will we have a future together? Does he feel the same?' When I got half way home, I got pulled into an alleyway and theses guys pin me to the wall. As I scream and try to fight my way out, they rip my clothes off.

Then, I feel my head slam into something hard and I feel my naked body getting pinned down to the ground. Last thing I see is a guy getting on top of me and unzipping a zipper while I hear a woman and several guys laughing before passing into the darkness.
