Chapter 4 ~ Just Getting Away

Chapter 4 ~ Just Getting Away

I instantly woke up really early that morning, I quickly looked at the clock as I turned my head slightly to the left, the big red numbers read 7:47 am, I lifted myself off of my clunky old bed trying not to make any noise because of my mother , I was breathing slowly as I opened the door making a slight sound as it slid across the floor I looked out hesitantly and the hall was empty, even though I can hear the loud, annoying noise of her snoring from all the way downstairs , I was very shocked that she was still in bed but I was also extremely happy that she didn't shockingly find me in my room, who know what could of happened, anyways I quickly close the door shut and lock the golden lock on the shiny handle just in case, I was so tired but I didn't want to risk my mom coming upstairs, I grabbed the first pair of jeans at the top of my dresser and the and my favorite t-shirt with a slice of burnt toast on it and an egg saying " oh you just got burned!!" That always made me smile , I was really hungry because I never had anything to eat until the last time I was " welcome " in my house which was around noon yesterday , I was thinking about sneaking into the kitchen to just grab some food and leave but it was way to risky for my likings , so I just got my carry in bag and shoved in my drawing book, a pencil and pen , my cell phone, my water that I have had in the bag from the last time I used it, the keys to every door in my house and a warm sweater. It was around 9:15am now and I was tired so I lied down on my bed for about an hour for a nap , then I got up and jump out my bedroom window as softly as possible, I flicked my bag out first onto the cold green grass then I pulled myself up outside of my bedroom and I stepped onto the hard grass picking up my bag and slowly opening to red gate without making a sound, it was around 10:00am now and it's starting to become daylight now but I still can barley see anything behind the dark looking shadow of the darkness, I'm am walking up my street with my big brown bag wrapped around my shoulder slightly, I don't really know where I'm going or what I'm doing, I just wanted to get out of my house as soon as I could I didn't plan anything out about what to do next, that would of been a good idea though. I kept walking until the sun started to come up as it shined down on my pale face, hurting my eyes when I look up over the houses , I see a big tree with not that much snow around it , it was a little ways away from my house but far enough so that my mother wouldn't see me , I sat down beside the tree on the wet grass with my back solid against the tree truck , I sit there for awhile just thinking about the past few days and the roller coaster of a life I'm going through, on my lap is my bag with everything in it that I had brought, I slowly feel in through my bag shuffling everything trying to find my drawing book and pencil, I finally found it and pulled it out of the old raggedy bag with the pencil poking my hand inside, I lay it on my lap and just start drawing what I feel, all of my emotions just spill out onto the paper like someone had just spilled a glass of water of a coffee table, pictures, words and symbols are all in this picture , I love to draw, it my stress released and just a way to let out my emotions because I was never open with the way that I felt about my personal self like my opinions and thoughts about certain things, as I sit there in deep thought about the drawing that I didn't exactly know how to describe, a strange man walks by me and just looks at me gives me thing mean dirty look and says to me

" Go home you stupid dirty kid, your hurting my eyes! "

I just looked at his with the scariest and maddest facial expression I could think of and said

" screw off and go get a life you jerk ! "

I usually get these comments all the time, that's why I hate going to school , I'm one of those different kids that doesn't talk out much and just like to be alone, even my out look apprehended isn't the " normal " look like everyone says or talks about

The guy just shakes his head and keeps walking, I didn't care though I got used to the rude comments people give me and I know I'm different and I like that,

It was still sitting there with a pencil in my cold pale hand and paper in front of me on my laps, I get my half drank water front in my bag and start to drink some , it tasted really good considering I haven't had anything to eat in about 12 hours when I put my water back I decided to look at my phone to check the time , I was 1:48 pm I look to a surprise to see 2 new text messages, I answered then and it was from Justin ! They reed

" hey :) are you still coming at around 2,,, hello?"

I was shocked because I have completely forgotten about the message I got last night from him asking about today at 2, I was so tired and I just wanted to sleep

I replied to his text saying

" okay, I'm so sorry I will be there in 10 minutes !! :) "

After I shoved everything in my dirty wet bag I decided to get up from my uncomfortable tree and slightly jog to where I'm going to meet Justin.
