I feel my eyes open to a bright light and my back of a hard surface....
That van? Where did it go? The last thing I remember was hearing a door open violently. As I look down I ache in places, I have bruises and cuts. I look around and my bag is gone, along with my shirt. Trying to get up with my bad knees was a struggle. It seemed as if it's been a couple of hours I've been knocked out.
As I run home I seem my moms car in the driveway. I don't know what to say? I'm baffled between keeping it a secret or telling them. But then again they took my phone, tablet, and computer so... That only leaves me with one choice.
Finally making my steps to the door, I slow my pace. I don't know why I think going slower would help If I'm not home as early as I should of been. I wish I lived with someone other than my mom, because she doesn't care about me at all, she acts like he does. I could be knocked out on that sidewalk all night and she wouldn't even notice.
WHY AM I THINKING ABOUT THIS?!
I open the door to my mom in packing groceries from Costco she had just bought. She gives me a smile and then a rather confused look. I could tell, it's giving me that gut feeling. She is gonna ask what happened.
"What happened to you? It looks like softball today was rough and late!" Lisa looks at her watch on her left wrist and her eyes widen. "Really late!"
"I'm sorry, I should call you next time, but I gotta tell you something, and you need to remain calm, ok?"
"Ok Melanie, I'm ready"
I know this feeling, its the same when I talk to Noah. Boy he is dreamy! Woah, my thoughts are getting ahead of myself. It's like my stomach just turns into a boulder.
"Well softball practice didn't really get out late." I stopped, seeing if she had wanted to add anything. "I was walking home and got knocked out. I don't remember anything except a van and me falling. Then I woke up with bruises all over and my bag and shirt gone."
"Oh my gosh! We need to call the police on this!" Lisa insists.
"No it's ok, the van comes by every day, they might give it back. If they don't tomorrow then we can contact the cops."
"Hit and runs are not a joke Mel! You know I don't want my own daughter to get hurt!"
"It wasn't even a bad hit an run. Since when have you cared? Your not my mom, your my fake mom!" I stormed up stairs. I don't even know why I said that. Not seeing my real family is killing me inside.
I run into my room because I hear Lisa start stomping up the stairs. "YOUNG LADY YOU ARE GROUNDED YA HEAR!? Never speak to me like that!!" She starts pounding on the door. "LET ME IN!"
She is a strong women and she will break in. By now she's almost gonna burst my door open and strangle me. I hurry up to open the window, and I grab a couple things I need. Right when I jump out, she bursts in.
As I run down the street in the dark night fog, there is this square figure. As I run closer it comes clearer. The van! It's parked in the street, and it's like it's waiting for me.
