Runaway

Chapter 11 Old Aqaintences. New Friends.

I had been on a bus ride back to Alfry. It was around 1:00 a.m. When I had gotten there. About two hours away from the town I left Vivi in.

Getting off the bus I stood, looking around at the familiar things. The street I had been on was only a block away from Sarah's bakery. Maybe I could somehow manage to get in there and just stay at the bakery for the night.

I nodded my head at that idea and began making. My way to Sarah's Bakery. Once I got there the lights had been off and the door was locked, I got out a bobby pin and lock-picked it.

After a few tries it opened and I went inside, there I stood closing the door behind me. I couldn't see that much, it was dark in the room, though some of the light from the moon shined in.

  I proceeded to make my way to the office Sarah had in the back. I got out blankets from my suit-case and laid them on the ground. Then kicked off my boots and snuggled in the blankets.

I slowly closed my eyes, it was cold in here. Only the middle of January. And only three weeks ago I had ran away. Time really did fly by fast. Now here I am back again.

All this thinking had made me even more tired. Soon I didn't realize it I was  asleep. It must've been only a couple hours before I awoke. Because I could see the morning light coming in through the curtains.

  I hid back under the blankets hoping the light would go away. There I laid for a half hour under the blankets. Soon I was to my senses after that. To I pushed the blanket away and stood up, rubbing my eyes blinking.

I didn't hear that anyone was here yet. Maybe then I will try to make some coffee. So I walked to the kitchen and began making coffee.

Well I tried. I wasn't sure how to use the coffee machine in Sarah's bakery.  It always confused me how she used it. But eventually I figured out how to use it.
By the time I was drinking my coffee I had heard the door bell ring and then the door close. Sarah must've been here! I quickly went out from behind the counter and tackled the person I saw.

"SARAH IM SO VERY SORRY I LEFT YO-"

I looked closer at who it was, "Wait your not Sarah..."

I then realized who it had been.

"Mabel."

She looked up at me with that get off me you bitch face. I grunted as I stood up dusting my self off. Then turned around to Mabel as she had gotten up.

"Where's Sarah?" I asked bluntly.

She just looked at me crossing her arms, "She is going to be coming into work later. She just wants me to run her Bakery for this morning."

Mabel walked off to the kitchen and I followed, "What time is she coming in?"

Mabel shrugged getting everything ready and washing her hands. "How the hell am I supposed to know?"

When Mabel was done washing her hands she dried them off with a pink rag that was hanging from the stove.  Her real eyes then stared at me for a minuet. My red eyes staring right back.

She eventually said, "How about you just help around her bakery until she gets here. Also where the fuck have you been?"

I replied as she had handed me an apron and I put it on, "Fine fine whatever. And where I was is none of your concern."

I then put my hair into a pony tail. Making sure everything was pulled back. I looked at the clock.

6:45... Five more minuets until the bakery is open.

I had been counting down the seconds as it got closer and closer to 7:00. Apparently Mabel had been talking to me and I didn't notice. I came to my senses when she snapped her fingers in front of my face.

I turned to her growling, "WHAT!?!"

Mabel jolted back a little then stood back up straight saying, "You can manage costumer's. I will work in the back."

I nodded and said, "Okay got it....bitch."

She rolled her eyes as I walked to the front counter.

I looked at the clock again.

30....20....10....5....4...3...2...1....0...

Apparently people had been waiting outside because the bakery automatically been filled with people of all ages. The first one came up, she was tall had a blue blouse on. Her hair was blonde with a short bob.

I took her order and gave it to Mabel. I then heard Mabel start up the coffee machine once more. I continued taking orders until everyone was gone.

Soon I saw a lady approaching the bakery with maple brown hair that was short. As she got closer I realized who it was.

It was.

Sarah.

She opened the door as I jumped over the counter running to her, I tackle hugged Sarah to the ground.

In tears I said happily, "SARAH!"

"IM SO SORRY I LEFT. I PROMISE TO NOT DO IT AGAIN. IM SO FUCKING SORRY PLEASE FORGIVE ME. YOU DONT KNOW HOW HARD IT WAS TO BE AWAY FRIM EVERYONE. AWAY FROM YOU!"

I said all of this as tears of joy streamed down my face. Leaving only a month ago had hurt me. And what I did of the course of that time had hurt.

I left the only family I had.
I was rude to the two who were kind to me.
I hurt my best friend.

Sarah was all I had left.

So I can't screw up.

No not with her.

Sarah had been taken by surprise, but I saw her sniffling and crying as well. A smile was on Sarah's face as she hugged me back.

I got off her and helped her up. Then hugged her again. My face had been planted in her shoulder.

We stood there hugging each other for a few minutes. Just silence. I liked this. Why did I ever leave this?

Eventually I stopped hugging Sarah and looked her in the eyes.

"I'm sorry..." I said.

I don't know what came over me but I...I...

I kissed Sarah!
