16 year old Leila felt there was no more hope for life. Her parents had disowned her new years eve of 2014-2015 (her 15th birthday)because they were both drug addicts and forgot how they loved her, once they tried claiming her back when they were so...
(Leila POV. ) So as you should know, I got disowned on new years eve when I was turning 15. Its been over a year since then, and I'm still living in this crappy group home. Mother(the group leader who insisted we called her mother)called us over. "I got 6 tickets to the Jimmy Fallon show tonight, and, since I bought 6, I got one free," mother said in a disappointed voice, "so Leila, I guess you can come now, too." She hissed at me. Everyone was sighing because I was coming. I've never been allowed to go out with them. I was so excited! I needed to start planning. Especially because this was my chance to escape. I planned my outfit, then I planned my escape. I looked up what the whole building looked like on the inside. I decided I would sneak backstage and go out the back exit. Its perfect. If I can handle the city I can handle 2 minutes backstage. But for some reason I started to get worried. I went outside onto our sh*tty balcony and took some deep breaths. I could smell the city, and that made me let go of all my worries. I thought to myself, "I miss being on the streets, who knows, I might see Alex again." the day had passed by quickly, and I was ready to go. I came out of my room wearing a black necklace, black ring, black bracelet, black shirt, black sneakers, a black an white varsity jacket, and ripped blue jeans (in picture above). As soon as mother saw me she screamed and told me to put something better on. So I did, but it wasn't much of an upgrade. I was wearing a blue and white polka dot top and a white flowy skirt (also in picture above). Mother said "That's much better!" And then, we left. (my outfits👇)
