Second Chances

chapter 4

The moment has come. Ben just told me about him and a couple of his friends going to California. That is were I can find my north mother. So I slipped put my window and went with Ben. I did leave a note to my parents don't worry. I can't wait to see her face. She is probably going to be the most beautiful lady I ever seen.

Jane is in the van with Ben along with his friends Joe and Luke. I can feel James glare. Its like her evil glare made me feel as though I had fire burning a whole in my back. It was dark now about ten I'd say. We stopped at a beach for the night. I stepped out to watch the stars. Ben came by me and sat next to me. But of course as we were just getting into conversation Ben was takes by the evil dragon.

She makes me angry. Then I saw two red and blue flashing lights and I ran by the van. It was the police giving us a ticket and was about to take the van. I went to the officer who was talking to Luke.''officer please don't take this van I am looking for my mom and I've come this far.'' I begged. The officer hesitated but let us off with a warning. Everyone was thanking me for saving our van. Luke came over and hugged me. I couldn't help but blush. Jane shoved me as she walked passed. She is a big jerk!

Ben decided it was getting to late so we all went to the motel. The bad thing is Jane and I had to share a room. Ben shared with Luke and Joe chose to sleep in the van. I was tired and ready for bed to I went into the bathroom to get ready. Luke is a nice person and so is Joe. Luke has thick brown hair and a nice white smile. Joe had a big afro and beard he was the clown of the group. A I got out Jane was already in bed. There was only one bed which I found uncomfortable...

I got in bed and turned off my lamp. Jane turned hers back on. ''Mary, Ben doesn't like you...you know that right.'' She said. '' Jane in sorry for whatever I did to make you hate me.'' I said back. Then she said with a stern face, '' you are a waste of space and the only reason why Ben is nice to you is that he doesn't want to hurt your feelings.'' This is the last straw! I got out of bed and I walked out of the apartment. I was sick of her being rude to me for no good reason. I walked down the stairs and got my bags out of the van and started walking down the road. I wasn't going to go back for anything or anyone. I am going to find her no matter what it takes even if I have nobody to help me. Even if I leave Ben behind with that jerk of a girlfriend.
