The day went by slow, I helped Eleanor in the garden, it was a painful experience, I can't stand her, I read and wrote and had dinner. It was now 11:30pm and Eleanor thinks I'm fast asleep getting ready for finishing school. I put my dress on that was meant for finishing school and the headband and shoes too and then I put my hair into a braid so my hair wasn't in my face. I grabbed my bag and took one last look at myself, checking the clock in the hallway, it was 12:00am I got dressed just in time. I moved aside my curtains and opened the window, leaving the window opened I jumped onto the roof and slid down. If Eleanor saw this she would freak and call me un-lady like. I ran down the dirt street and made my way into town, I got to the train station and took a seat on the train, relived I finally escaped Eleanor. Little did she know I left her a special note next to my opened window that read:
"Dear Eleanor,
Karmas coming for you,
Or shall I say Enola.
-A.E.S"
I would do anything to see her reaction! I soon fell asleep at around 1am and woke up at 10am the next morning when the train stopped in blue bird village. I hopped off the train and immediately got stares by people admiring my custom finishing school dress. I was walking through the village when I got startled by someone asking me if I have seen a wanted criminal. "Actually I have seen her! She invited me in for tea and stole my purse! She's on 2143 field street, a few hours from auburn hollow." I replied with a smirk. You may wonder, Aurora are you framing Eleanor? Yes indeed I am, Im framing Eleanor burn, I told her karma was coming, when I say karma I mean me, it'll buy me some time anyways, I know she's probably out looking for me now even though she despises me. If I did something bad, but why does it feel so good? I'm think my reputation, which is a new experience for me but I don't care, it's what Rosetta wants, right?. Speaking of Rosetta I need to find her. "Excuse me ma'am" a mail man said, tapping my shoulder. "Yes?" I replied fakely innocent. "Are you Enola? Your aunt showed me a picture of you and told me to deliver this note to you if I saw you in town." He smiled, handing me the note and an envelope of money. "Thank you so much sir!" I grinned. "Your welcome young lady." He said, walking away. I tore open the letter and read it:
"Dear Aurora,
I'm very proud of you,
I know you met your mother
She's an awful women
Please don't trust a word she's ever said.
I'm so happy that you escaped her.
Please don't hold anything against your father,
he never wanted to leave you.
Oh and p.s, head to the warehouse on
Apple street, downtown Maple Bliss
Much love my dear,
-R.S "
