The next day Penelope woke up, got ready and left for school. She had the same routine as the previous day. After school she got ready for volleyball practice. She took her bike there. As she entered the building one of her bullies made of her for having to take her bike there. The thing is that in reality Penelope is the best in her volleyball class. After class she went home and started studding. After she was done with her homework she went to the living room and started reading her book. She again got a phone call from Artemis.
A: I think you know why I am calling you.
P: Yes, I do step mother.
A: I want you to make me a salad.
P: Okay step mother.
Penelope went to the kitchen and started cutting everything that she would put in the salad. She set the table and waited for Artemis. When Artemis got back she told Penelope to go to her room and leave her alone.
Penelope went to her room and started crying. Later her mother got home and asked Artemis where Penelope was. Artemis told Megan that she is in her room. Megan started walking up the stairs to Penelope’s room and heard her crying and talking to herself.
P: I cannot do this anymore. I’m tired of having to do everything Artemis tells me to do. I’m tired of being scared. I want to run away you hear me Staci?
