The Book Of Secrets

Alone

I've been trying to escape for days now. All I need is just an hour or so to look for the book so I can at least cross off some places in Abernathy. But my mother has especially been hovering over me this past week. I wonder if she knows that I'm looking for the book. I hope not. If she found out my life would be over. From the beginning it was said if the book was ever found 1.Never  read it,2.Never  share it with anyone else and 3. Never tell anyone you have it. I plan to at least break one of those rules. I must start by asking questions about it to maybe get a hint about where it is. I walk over to my parents room to ask them questions when I here yells and laughter of  excitement. I stay outside the door for a little bit to hear what they are saying,before  the conversation is over I am in tears and am furious by what they are saying. They plan to ship those off Abernathy that are not at least 75% Aberthian.How could they do this!! That is almost haft the Country!! I must stop this!! I barge in and demand and explanation. "This is crazy" I say. I'm not letting this happen! My mother just sits there giving me a dirty look. "This is not your decision" she says. "We have already decided and some are getting shipped now". "What!" I scream. "Why would you do this?" She just looks at me before saying,"Because we can't afford having all these people". "Yeah" I say," I bet not because you spend the country's money on you and other stupid things". My father looks disgusted,"How dare you talk to your mother like that" he says. "She has never been a mother to me, and you've never been a father to me!!I say.Both of there jaws drop, I can see the rage in there eyes. I close me eyes tightly and prepare for the fight. But instead my father only says one thing,"Get out, you can not live hear anymore". All the sudden I feel sick and dizzy like I'm going to throw up. I just walk out slamming the door. I head to my room to pack a few things then leave. Where will I sleep? What will I eat? I can't believe they would do this to me.
