Someone knocks on the door of the office taking our attention away from Cadence.

"Yes?"
She asks as the door opens revealing Kyle.

"Uh, Norabella just sorta ran out"
He says. Me and Joey both look at eachother and stand up.

"I'll find her, you stay and talk"

Joey says. I don't have time to say no, he already walks out.

Cadence looks at me for a second. And continues.

"We can talk about this another time. You go help your husband."
I have her a quiet 'thank you'
And leave quickly.

Norabella is going all rebellious.

Her therapist told us this would happen and she might have some issues from her father in her genes.

I catch up to Joey and we hop in the car.

"Where would she go?"
I ask as Joey behind driving around the school

"Not far"
He replies. I hope not.

***Norabella***

I don't really know where I'm going, but I'm going some where.

I walk quickly on the grass away from the school.

I don't really know why I'm upset. Well, I know I'm pissed at Kessica and Kyle, but I'm just angry.

I'm angry at them, my school, and most of all my old dad, Jim.

I've never stopped being mad at him. Larry says I can visit him, but I don't want to.

But I hate him.

I feel my phone ring. Probably dads.

I pick it up and decide to answer.

"What?"
I say more rudely that I intended.
"Norabella, where are you?"
I hear angry Joey ask. I roll my eyes and keep walking.

"Piss off"
I definitely shouldn't have said that. I've never sassed them like this before.
I feel so angry. I don't really know why.

"Norabella! You will not talk to me like that missy. Tell me where you are right this second."
I hear Daniel say. I end the call and shove my phone back in my pocket.

I feel in vibrate again. I pick it up, expecting it to be dads, but it's Paul.

"What?!"
I say loudly. temper.

"What the frick are you doing?"
Paul yells. I pull the phone away from my ear and end the call.

I shut my phone off to avoid anymore calls and continue walking.

***

I end up walking a few miles into the town area.

"Dang it"
I murmur to myself. I wanted to go to an isolated area not a strip mall.

I'm getting hungry. I guess I'll just go to McDonald's or something.

I feel a little uneasy being here by myself. I don't like being by myself.

This area isn't really dangerous, but being a 15 year old girl, by myself, when it's getting dark isn't exactly the safest place to be.

I know this sounds rude, but homeless people freak me out.

I know they're not dangerous or anything, they're just homeless, but they always stare at me all creepily.

Always makes me freak out. Yeah I know I'm insensitive whatever.

I walk a little more until I get near the McDonald's. As I hop up on the sidewalk,

I feel a large hand grasp tightly on my arm.
