Runaways

Chapter 2

   I turn around and it's Justin."on a walk" I say. He looks at me. "What's in the bag" he says. I turn around and I start walking again.

"I asked you a question" he says with a louder voice. I stop and I turn around "nothing" I say. 

"It has to be something" he says. He walks closer to me.

"Well it's not so bye" I say turning around and walking to the road. I keep walking until I hear him say " if it's nothing you wouldn't be jumping out of a window and climbing down a tree".

   I keep walking hoping he wouldn't follow me. Halfway where I'm sopposed to be going I think, what if he tells my mom. Oh no.  I turn around and I start running for my house.

    I get to my house and I climb back up the tree and I get back into my room. I throw my bag back in the closet and I run downstairs. I run to the kitchen and my mom's washing dishes. "are you okay, honey?" My mom says.

     I looks at her "yeah" I say "I'm just fine".
I walk back up to my room and my phone is vibrating on my bed. I go and grab Emma is calling me.
 
     "Hello"? I say

"Anna where are you" she says

"Can't make it tonight" I say

"Ugh, really everybody really wanted to watch you fight tonight".

"Sorry" I say "I'll be there Saturday night"

"Great" she says "see you then".

"Bye " I say.

I put my phone on my desk and I lay down on my bed. Someone knocks on my door. "Come in" I say. My mom walks in and sits down on my bed. She looks at me with her bright green eyes. "Anna, are you still fighting please don't lie to me" she says.

I want to tell her the truth but I know if I do she wouldn't let me fight anymore. She's already taken my car from me. I look at her and say "no".

  She gets off my bed and walks back to the door. "I know you miss your dad Anna, I do too, I just don't want you to get hurt".

"I know" I say with a smile.

She walks out and I bury my face in my pillow and I start to cry. I miss my dad so much. I wish he wasn't dead. He died for me and that hurts worse then anything in the world.
