Runaway

Chapter One

When I was younger I had a lot of tragic life changes. One of those was my mom dying. I always remember what she said to me, when the life support machine was turning off, she said "you're the strongest girl I have ever known, you were the perfect daughter, you don't need your silly old mom." Those words were still ringing through my head along with the church bells from the funeral, several months after she was gone. I still couldn't get over it, so every now and then I would break down and cry. For months after she died I cried myself to sleep, sat up at like 3am and wrote my feelings down, all those petty things. They made me feel better.

My father was the one main problem. Ever since my mom had passed away, as a way of coping, he turned to the drink... Those words still fail to please me. He was like another person. He would beat me, scare me, so much that in the end I had enough and left.

Please comment below your opinion. I would love to hear some of your ideas also. Please no hate!! I got the idea from this in a book I read a couple years ago, my memory is so bad I cannot remember the name of it!! I'm trying to base this on real life events- at least some. I myself am a bad writer so don't judge me, just like thinking a book is crap by its cover- no pun intended. Ok I'm not going to humiliate myself any further. Goodbye xx Lara
