THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY

Chapter-3

I washed my face and went down to drink some water. i looked at the clock. It was 7:30 pm alredy. I saw mom preparing the dining table for dinner. Hena was watching the commercial of a shampoo. it showed ariana grande with her long hair smiling. "where did she get that body..maybe i should lose some more pounds.." she said. as always she was that skinny girl type of body but still she always go on a diet; which i never do in my entire life. teena was busy with her cellphone. marcus was playing with their dog boogie.
Mom saw me coming downstairs.

she walked to me. "are you feeling better." she asked.

" I won't be better till i runaway from here". i said. she sighed and looked at me. " come, let's have dinner." She said. "I'm not hungry!"
" But you didn't eat anything from afternoon."

" Mom please..i'm not hungry!"

I walked and grabbed a glass of water and went upstairs.after a few minutes, i heard someone knocking the door. Gailes,who is my mom's second husband peeped in.
"May i come in?"
I looked at him and said nothing. he came in and said " i heard that you had a fight with your dad."

"Yea..does it matter with you?" i asked rudely.

" As your step dad i can check your problems..though you never tell me what is it."

" Gailes..please just stay away from my life..you know that i hate you..and i don't want to be rude."
"i know..i just said...then i'll leave..if you need any help as a father..you can come to me.."

"I don't need your help! i have a father and mother alive there.. to help me..so please leave.." I put on my headphones even though the music was off. He sighed and said " fine..goodnight!". But i didn't even look at him.

On the next morning, i woke up with a hungry stomach and was dieing. so i went downstairs to have my breakfast. mom was making pancakes. she saw me and looked at me. "Good morning sweetie..want some pancakes?"
I said nothing but went and took the cereal box and put some cereal and milk in a bowl. mom looked disappointed and said " seems like you don't like pancakes..."
" Good morning mom...." .marcus came and gave a hug to my mom. Let me say thaaat was unbearable.
I put on my headphones and started eating. i saw teena coming down wearing her shorts and full sleeve tight top. She sat near me and put her bag on the table. she looked at me and said "again the daddy's girl wearing hoodie..how boring!!"
I didn't mind her cause it was not a new thing to me. its usual.
" Does it matter with you?"i said.
She showed me a tongue out face. god! She's so girlyyy...
Hena walked near me and took an apple.she flipped her hair back and looked at me. she showed a 'your disgusting' face! I rolled my eyes.
That was my maximum. i stood up,taking my bag and opened the door.
" Byeee sweeti-"mom said
I shut the door before she completing it. i put on 'warrior by Demi Lovato' and walked on the street putting my hands in my hootie pocket. i waited for my bus.
Suddenly i saw David's red BMW passing by.. when they saw me they slowed the car. ofcourse..no wonder! Hena was sitting with him.
" Look at our hootie cinderella waiting for the school bus!!" teena said. i looked away pretending that i didn't hear what she said.
" Let's go babe!" Hena said to david.
" Yea.. sure..!" he said.
He looked at me and smiled in a flirty way and drove off.
"I feel sick..!" i said my self.
I saw my bus on the way. it stopped and opened the door.
" good morning..hoodie girl.." Our driver mrs hamston said.
I got in and sat at the back seat. everyone looked at me. let me make it clear..they were staring at me and talking stupid stuffs about me.
People backbite about me..even spread rumors.. First it hurted me.but now i don't even care. even though i hate my mom i could still remember those words told by my mom ' dogs bark when they don't know the person.
But there was one person..who always stared at me..but don't backbite, don't speak stupid stuffs but just stare at me.
