The Girl Who Ran Away

Page 1

        Its dark, we can't see anything at the moment. Its quiet, there's not a sound to be heard. It smells, she wants to get out of here as soon as she can. She wants to leave, but she feels trapped. I wonder why, there's nothing stopping her from running away, is there? She hears a knock on the door, its her father coming home from work. She feels a shock go through her body, she tenses up as she opens the door. Outside is her father, only a little drunk today. Oh and two women that Haru has never met. 

        Haru hates her father, like any teen probably would, but I agree with her personally. Her father isn't the best. Ever since her mom left, Victor, her dad, has been getting drunk and bringing new women every day. She hates it, this endless cycle. But what can she do, her dad is filthy rich but she doesn't have money. She is a teenager, no job, no money, only her dad and some friends. She has been wanting to leave for years, but she never mustered up the courage to do so. However, I feel as though something is different today, she looks motivated. 

I don't know what is different about today, is it a special occasion or maybe she just had enough. No, it can't be the latter because she would of left a long time ago if that was true. Then what is it, her birthday? Oh, wait a minute, it is. She hasn't celebrated her birthday in years. Her dad probably forgot she had one. He hasn't even said happy birthday to her in years. Today, I guess her birthday present is leaving this cage. She is going to run away.
