Stuck in care.

1

Olivia (Liv/livvy) had been missing for months. She ran away a day before her 11th birthday, her birthday was the 5th May. It was currently October 12th. Which means it was freezing cold. She stayed in dark alley ways at night but she couldn't get any sleep. She didn't eat or barley drink. As she was young all the people asked if she was alright but she just ran.
She was scared of her dad. He got the drunkest and he would beat her so hard she couldn't even walk.
Her mum watched but sometimes hit her as well but it was her dad mainly, he was very aggressive anyway without alcohol. She would hid in her wardrobe for hours or some where they can't find her. When she ran away they looked for her and got the police involved so if they get her she will have to go back. The only reason they did that is because they wanted there punch bag back.

Today at 8am, she was running through the park away from a stranger who was trying to call the police to get Olivia help. She looked behind her and when she turned back she bumped into a man.
She looked up. Police.
"Olivia Johnson I'm here to help" he tried to grab her.
"No no no" she pushed him and ran. She cried.
She heard her name being called from afar as the police was running to her.
All the people around were watching. Then a shop keeper grabbed me and held me until the police came. I tried to get him off me but her had a tight grip.
"Thanks Jim" the police said to the man.
"I'm here to help I promise" the man kneeled to me.
"I'm not going home" liv sobbed.
"Just come with me to the station, you've been missing for months we need to ask you some questions" he smiles as the shopkeeper realises his arms. I tried to run but the police man grabbed me in time. He picked me up and took me to his police car. When he was driving you curled up into a ball and looked out the window crying.
"We're here" the man said as he opened the door for Liv. She stared at him worried.
"Come on" he says and he drags her out the car.
She squirms about trying to get loose. I doesn't work, what a surprise, he's a cop.
"It's alright" he says as they walk inside.
He takes her into a room with a sofa,desk, small table. It felt warm.
"So I'll be back with another person to talk to you okay" he doesn't wait for an answer because he knows he won't get one.
You curl up putting your head into your knees onto the sofa.
"Hello Olivia, I'm Jenna, I'm a social worker" a lady sits down on a chair in front of Liv.
A social worker?
"So you've been missing a while huh"
...
"Did you find somewhere to sleep?"
...
"Okay we'll I'm going to call your parents to come get you" she was about to get up.
"Please...don't" Olivia says lifting her head up a little.
"Why?"
...
"Olivia I'm going to ask you a question." She stated.
"Did they hurt you?"
Livvy slowly nod.
"Is that why you ran away?" She asks.
"Yes" she cries into her knees.
"It's okay" she gets up and sits next to her.
"I promise you, I won't call them. But Olivia we going to put you into something called a care home. Which means you'll get looked after by staff and you'll live with other kids" she says.
Other people...
Olivia has never gone to school. She was being 'homeschooled'. She never did work because she had no computer, no phone, no paper. Her parents never got her anything. The only time she'd seen other kids is when she went to nursery for a year when she was 4.
"I'll be back in one moment" Jenna smiles as she leaves.
Olivia was sat there for an hour with nothing to do but she was us to that.
"Sorry that took so long. Olivia this is Mike, he's the head care worker at the home you'll be staying at." Jenna walks over to Liv. She doesn't look up.
"Hi Olivia" Mike says.
"Olivia" Jenna touched her arm but she pushed it off. "Mike and I are going to take you to Elm tree house now" Jenna stated.
"Okay" olivia mutters as she slowly gets up.

Mike looks at Jenna worried at how scared she was.
