The Warped Arcade

When the sun rises

You sleep for what feels like 5 minutes when the door open. You sit up and see that the janitor has arrived and its already 4am. " It seems you fell asleep on the job huh, I'm just wondering why the door was locked." He says while he turns the light on. "I didn't fall asleep on the job, the door, the door wouldn't open i think it was frozen shut or something so i stayed here last night." You lied to him again, it felt right. He was a country person and aways was sketchy and never felt like someone you could trust. "Well I'm going to go now! also the phone is broken!" You grab your wallet and walk out of the arcade without saying another word. He watches you as you opened the door but didn't say anything as well.

walking home you ponder in your mind what your mom will think of what happened to you last night because you didn't come home for curfew. "She didn't mind to check my work place so she either thinks; I'm dead, ran away, or staying at someone's house, she could also of not cared but i doubt it. She probably called around as well." You thought to yourself before turning down your road. You can see your house ahead but covered in fog as wells as everything else around you because of the cold morning. You approached your yard and stand in front of the house before opening the door and take a deep breath preparing for the wave of emotions when your foot steps foot on the wooden floorboards. You walk up to the door and turn the cold metal door handle and to your surprise it is already unlocked.

You enter and close the door behind you gently before yelling " Hello, I'm home!" You hear a chair from the kitchen shoot across the floor and your mom coming to the door quickly with a unpleasant expression on her face and stand Infront of you. " WHERE WERE YOU LAST NIGHT, EVERYONE WAS WORRIED!" She says without giving a proper greeting as her face reddens. " I got locked into the arcade last night and the phone went out' im really sorry!" You said backing up from her running into the door. " Yeah right, you were probably out with your friend's doing drugs or hanging out with some girl!" she said in a very snotty voice starting at you with such depth you knew something bad was going to happen. "Yomanila please just go to your room, Ill be up there to talk to you soon!!" She said this so loudly you didn't get a chance to reply or even think, and you dart up the stairs to the room without question!

You enter your room and leave the door open to prevent more conflict. You sit on your bed with your feet on the floor and staring at the floor. Tears to fall from your eyes and the minutes you sit there holding your head start to feel like hours. Your mother was never a kind person and she was heavy alcoholic, your father on the other hand died in a car crash when you were younger. You had never disrespected her or done something to be in trouble so you were very unsure what she was going to do. She comes into the room standing almost emotionless. " Your not welcome to live here anymore, pack your things and get out!" she said looking out the window next to you. You immediately were confused, she couldn't be serious, " all i did was not come home for a night!" you thought to yourself in your head for a quick second then decided to say something. " You can't be serious !! I got trapped at my work for ONE NIGHT and now i can't have a home!!! Where am i supposed to stay?!?"

She turned around and started walking back down the hall and just said " You heard me." You stand up and then you stop in your tracks to pracces everything that just happened for a second time. Once you come back to reality you grab your backpack from school and carefully put all of your close inside so you have enough room. You grab an extra pair of shoes your wallet and a few CD's for your walkman. You stand in the doorway of your rom that never had anything in it just a bed and a dresser for your clothing. It felt like you were rushing things but you were being kicked out. you didn't know where to go you had school tomorrow as well. You walked down the stairs and out the door slamming it to alert your mom that you had left.
