    We were waiting for like 20  minutes, and I felt like any second the cops would catch us. I was really scared and it was really cold. Then we heard a car coming our way. I was scared because what if it was a police. When I looked up, I saw a really nice car. Wow. This guy was really rich. Then Mark and the guy we're talking and laughing, while I was out in the cold. Then the guy looked at me and gave me a smirk, and then said something to Mark, and when he did, Mark had a serious face on and said something back to the guy. Then Mark called me.

"Are you coming," Mark said impatiently.

I was mad because first I'm waiting until they're done talking while I'm freezing, and now Mark is getting mad at me. I walk over and go into the car. I didn't want to say anything back because I don't want there to be an argument.

"So how do you like the car," Mark's friend said trying to break the silence.

"Um, it's really nice and cool," I say giving him a small awkward smile.

"Ok lets go before the cops actually catch us," Mark said giving me a bad look.

Omg now I was getting really pissed at Mark, because he us getting mad for no damn reason. We started driving and it was quiet for a while.

"So I'm Daniel, Mark's friend."

"Hi, I'm Riley," I said awkwardly.

Then the rest of the car ride was quiet. 5 minutes later, we were at a big Mansion. I was surprised at how rich Daniel was.

"Wow, I love your mansion," I said to Daniel.

He gave me a small laugh then said thanks.

The inside of the mansion looked so much better. I was so embarrassed being in their because I looked nothing like him. I looked like someone homeless compared to him right now. Then he took us upstairs and told us what rooms to stay in. And if we needed anything, just ring the red button by your lamp and the housemaid will come. I was really impressed. When I got into my room, it was huge. Nothing compared to my room. It was like 5 times bigger than my room. I was looking around for a little, then layed down on my bed. I started thinking about my mom. I left her. I feel so ashamed. I wonder how she will feel when she knows I escaped jail. While I was deep in my thoughts, I heard the door open and I quickly stood up. It was Daniel and he handed me some clothes. I thanked him then he left. There was a small bathroom in my room, so I went in and took a long hot shower. Then changed into my clothes. I felt much better. Then I see a note on my bed. It said,

Please be at the dinner table at 8:45.
                   -Stella

So I guess the housemaid's name is Stella. Well it was 8:32. I have to hurry up. I still had to do my hair because it was still wet. There we're many things by the mirrior and I quickly picked up the blow drier and dried my hair. Then I just brushed my hair quickly. It didn't look that bad. Daniel got me a really beutiful, expensive looking dress.I look at the time and it is 8:41. I quickly put everything back, then got out of my room. I really don't know where the dining room is. Ugh, Im lost cuz this place is sooo huge. I find the stairs and am about to go downstairs, then I hear a door open upstairs. I stop to see Mark just coming downstairs. I can tell he just finished taking a shower because his hair still looked kind if wet. He actually looked kind of cute. Then I walk up to him.

"Um, do you know where the dining room is," I said kind of nervously.

"Uh, yeah. Also, I'm sorry I was being rude earlier in the car," he said.

"Uh, no problem," I said.

Then he came and I was following him until finally we we're at the dining room. It looked so beautiful. I sat down, and saw that there was a lot of food.

"Enjoy," Stella said with a sweet smile.

"Thank you," I said smiling back.

Then Daniel came and she left.

"Ok so eat then go get some sleep," he said.

"Wait, your not eating with us," Mark said confused.

"Nah, I ate long before u guys came."

"Oh," Mark said. "So how long can we stay here."

"I don't really care, so as long as you want, he said. Well if anyone gets suspicious... then I might tell you guys to leave, cuz I dont want to go to jail again."

Then with that he left.

"I have a bad feeling about staying here," I say to Mark.

"Well its better than trying to hide on the streets then getting caught," he said.

"I know, but I feel like we will get caught then we will end up going to jail for more years."

"No we won't... we just have to be careful," he said with a more serious face.

"Are we going to be hiding like this our whole lives?," I said.

"No we will probably just leave this place and go somewhere far where we can live our lives and start over our whole life... but I don't plan on doing that anytime soon."

"You're crazy. Im never leaving my mom."

"You'll have no choice unless you want to get caught and end up in jail again."

Then the rest of the time was quiet. Then Mark stands up.

"Im gonna go get some sleep, you should too."

"Yeah, good night."

"Good night."

Then he went upstairs.

I was done eating but was just sitting down thinking of how this decision I made just changed my whole life. Then Stella came stopping my thoughts.

"Hi, you done eating, she said nicely."

"Oh yeah," I said awkwardly.

She looked really nice. I wondered if she knew we just escaped from jail. I was about to leave upstairs, but decided to ask if Stella needed help cleaning up.

"You need help cleaning up," I said.

"Oh no, go sleep, you had a long day already."

I wondered what she meant abouy long day.

"No I insist," I say kindly.

"Ok, thank you that's really nice of you," she said like it was the best thing anyone has ever done for her.

"It's nothing," I reply with a smile.

We pick up all the plates and cups and she starts cleaning the table. I go to the kitchen and start doing the dishes. Then when she comes back, she quickly takes the sponge away from me.

Omg, you helped too much. You are very kind and I really appreciate everything. I haven't felt special since a long time. Thank you. I'll finish. Go get some rest.

"Your welcome, and it was nothing," I say as kindly as I could.

I start to wash my hands and am starting to walk out the kitchen. Then Stella says something that I think I heard incorrectly. I mean I wish I heard incorrectly.

"Wait what?," I say looking at her, hoping she said something differant than I heard.

"I said I can never imagine how a girl like you went to jail... then escaped.  I mean you seem too innocent."

I stopped quickly and just stared at her surprised that she knew.
