July 10th
I was in the car listening to the saddest song I had in my playlist. I looked at my dad. He seemed to be moving his lips but I couldn't hear him and I also didn't care. All I could think about is this camp. What does it look like? Who goes there? Is it the shit hole I imagined it would be?
In the car I saw that there was a small flask in the front pouch. I quickly grabbed it and stuffed it in my sweatshirt pocket.It had been a couple hours and I was getting a little tired. I usually never get any sleep after everything that happened. My phone was dying so I turned off the music and decided to talk to my dad, since I had nothing better to do.
"Where are we" I asked.
I had never been to New Hampshire ever. After my parents divorce, I never went anywhere really. It was just me and my dad going to the same place.
"We just made it in New Hampshire" my dad said eagerly.
I started looking at the window thinking. Trying to remember the good times. Then all of a sudden, everything went dark. I couldn't see anything and I didn't remember what happened at all. When I could finally see something, there was nothing there. "Hello?" an echo of silence roase. "Is anyone here?" All of a sudden I hear a noise.
"BECCA!"
I started running straight. Anywhere that I could find out who that person was. I was running while the screams of my name were getting louder. Then I saw something. A door. I could hear that the voice was coming from here. "Should I open it" I thought to myself. "Of course open it you dumb shit" the voice in my head told me.I slowly moved my hand to the door. The voice of my name was so loud. It was pounding in my head. I slammed the door open. It was Alex. He was standing exactly where he was when I found out what he did. "Becca please stay." I started to run the other way, but Alex started chasing me. The voice of my name kept getting louder and louder.
"BECCA. BECCA BECCA!"
I just kept running until I fell down. I shut my eyes and just let myself fall. I gasped for air, and when I opened my eyes my dad was right infront of me standing outside the door."Becca are you okay?" my said said worried.
"Ya" I said. "It must have been a bad dream."My dad looked even more worried. He also looked a little realived. I haven't slept in a while so sleeping in the car must have felt good for my dad.
"Well... we're at the camp. Are you ready?"
Was I ready? I had one choice. Do I step out of the car, and actually do something, or stay in the car and never do anything again?
"Yes" I said confidently.
I was ready to get out of this car. I was ready to begin my new life.
