I went back to my apartment and Mom immediately pulled me in to the car back to our house. Dad surprised me with a shout on my face, "How dare you try to run away from us!"

I just kept my mouth shut and I admit, it does hurt but I am used to this. I just need to understand them. Anyway, I'm just going to meet with JC tomorrow night and after that, I'm going back with Fool.

Right after my father's shout, I walked into by bedroom and locked it. He followed and banged the door.

"Your mom told me that you've met someone! He's such a bad influence for you! You are becoming disrespectful!" He said so loud.

I heard my mom's voice calming Dad, "Honey, chill. She's here now so we don't have to worry."

"Yes! Because from now on, she'll be guarded!" Dad shouted again and it echoed in my mind. Guarded? What am I? A ten year old girl? Their voices vanished and all I could hear now is the deafening silence of the night. A tear escaped from my eyes feeling pity for myself. Gosh, I want to go back to the lodge. I need to breathe. I need to feel loved and I know I'll be feeling it in Fool's arms. I went out through the window and as fast as I can, I escaped.

I went back to the lodge but to my surprise... Fool's not here. I found a note on the bed and it reads 'I am sorry baby. I need to leave but I'll try to come back. I love you and I know you feel the same way too. If I didn't come back, hold on. I'll make a way. Love, fool'

What is the meaning of this letter? I lied down on the bed and think, maybe his grandma needs him. Yeah, this doesn't mean goodbye Jennifer... His grandma needs him. But still, why does it feel like this is goodbye? NO! Maybe I should just sleep and don't think too much.

The morning shines but I feel like the world is crashing in front of my sight. I am waiting for Fool's knock on the door but no one's coming. Suddenly I felt hungry so I went out and while I am buying a fruit water from Starbucks, one of my parents' guards saw me. I was about to run away but unfortunately he caught me.

"Miss Jenny, your parents are looking for you," he informed me while gripping my arm. "And as part of my job, I need to bring you back to them."

"How much they are paying you? I can double it just don't turn me in to them. Please," I begged.

"I am sorry Miss Jenny. This is my job."

So yeah, here I am back to the house, in front of my angry parents.

They are looking at me furiously and I just looked down. They're not saying a word but I know how angry they are right now to me.

I then took a deep sigh and courageously told them, "I am sorry but if you really love me, you will set me free. Mom, Dad, I've been tied up under your control since I was born and I am tired of it. I know I must be thankful but this is too much. Marriage is too much."
