"No, not my mom!" Thought Mathilda hiding under her bed."I can't live without her..."
The robbers left the house agitated and closed the door rudely behind them.
Mathilda heard the robbers saying that they didn't find anything in the house so she felt better. She got up and stared at her room who was a mess now. She explored the house and was about to faint when she saw her very own mother lying on the ground with two shots in her head.She went on her knees next to the dead body and started crying till someone knocked the door. Mathilda, chocked escaped from the back door and sat in the bushes spying on the people who were knocking the door. The "visitors" were the cops who came to find out what happened last night. But they couldn't wait outside the house till someone comes and opens the door, so they got in by breaking it. Mathilda ran away because she didn't know what was happening.
Seattle is a huge city. Its very easy to get lost in it. But Mathilda was a clever girl, so she went to the centre of the town searching for some money in her pockets. She found twenty bucks, and a necklace that her mother gave her a day ago, for her birthday. She ran to her uncle's bookshop tears in her face.
"Ben? Uncle Ben?" But no one answered. She got out of the shop and asked an old lady :"do you know where the bookshop owner is?"
- Who are you young girl?
- I am Mathilda. His sister's daughter.
- Oh. You are Sophie's daughter?
- Yes, I am.
The old woman looked at the girl with disappointment and left her alone.
"Whats happening? Why is everybody looking at me like that?" Thought Mathilda.
But her question didn't last long. As she was walking on a lonely street next to the church, she found a news paper. So she sat down on the pavement and started to read.
"A LITTLE GIRL MURDERS HER MOTHER AND LEAVES" said the news papers.
"Wow! How could a little girl murder her own mother?" So she continued reading to found out who is that girl.
"Mathilda Weatherly , a young girl who lives in north Seattle kills her mother Sophie Barnes and leaves. People says that this girl has a mental illness because of her father's death when she was a three years old girl."
" Oh my God! How could they say those things about me?"
She was still chocked when she saw a young lady talking to the policeman and pointing at her, so she ran away quickly and hid behind an old ice cream truck.
She realized that no one was following her anymore so she went to the nearest train station.
When she got there, she asked about the lowest-price ticket . And lowest price one was to Kenmore.
She got on the train and hoped for the best.
