I stare at my books as the words jumble around in my head. I sat in the back of the class so when the teacher want's someone to read, it won't be me who gets embarrassed. I slouch in my seat as she locks eyes with me.

"Katlyn? Read from page 125 to 1130.." Her voice echoes through the room go mixed high schoolers. I began to panic.

"Uh.. my voice hu- hurts-" I stutter, trying to lie my way out.

"READ!" She yells. I gulp,

"D- Dorry-"

"Darry" She corrects me.

"Darry was-"

"WALKS," She says with no patients left.

"Jack, you read.. Class ends in 20 minutes and we don't have the time to waste on kids who don't know how to read!" She shoots me a dirty look. Her eyes where as dark as storm clouds and her tone was as cold as snow.

Class ends and a few hours later, the school day was over.

I collect my boss and make my way down the hallway. I throw my long, silky blonde hair up in a messy bun and began to walk home since nobody offered to to drive me home. Boy's scream nasty slurs at me that where so negative, I had to change my route home.

I arrive home and figures, nobody is home. I was always lefts home alone because my parents and sister don't care about me. I have trouble understanding what their note said:

"Ktalny,

ew ingog out.." I couldn't continue. I am dyslexic. I hate telling people because they just use it against me. I know they are gong out because for one they aren't home and two I think I understand th word "out" by now.

I spread my arms and legs across the air mattress in my room and began to cry. myself to sleep. Why can't I be normal like everyone else?! Nobody, not even my own parents and teachers like me!! I feel fat and stupid compared to everyone in this world. Though I'm 90 pounds, I still feel like I'm not skinny enough!! I just wanna leave..

I could hear faint screams traveling through my head. I could feel someone tugging at my arm roughly. I fell off my 'bed' and was smacked. Tears stream down my face.

"YOU WHERE TOLD TO CLEAN UP THE HOUSE WHILE WE WHERE AT THE MALL!! YOU ARE TO STAY IN YOUR ROOM, NO DINNER, NOTHING!!" My father screams at me, Smacking my back. I was unable to move. I could barely breathe. He bean to scream louder.

"CLEAN UP THIS HOUSE NOW,START UP OUR DINNER AND GO BACK TO YUOR ROOM YOU DUMMY!" My mother says poking my chest.

"I'm s-sorry mom-" I stutter with fear as mom raises her fist. She punches my eye.

I wince in pain, while running to my room. I'm NOT going to be treated like some sort of slave anymore. This is it.. I'm going to run away. I don't know where but it's going to be somewhere my family isn't.

I finish cooking and went to room to pack. It was about 2:45 and I decided it was time. I grabbed my back pack and IPhone 6s that I bought with my OWN money and ran down the road.

I knew I had been a few towns away from where I had been living bug atlas it was away from them. I know were I want to go. HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA!! As a little girl I always wanted to be a famous singer because it was one of my hobbies. I will sleep now but in the morning I will hitch a few rides till I'm out of Idaho, then get a taxi ride through Nevada to California.. That is if I make the $50 I took with me last and the driver will take me that far..

I need to rest up cause this week is gonna be long! I began to fall asleep.
