Anything is possible

Out

*That's going to be the guy at the restaurant, read further to understand*

When I stopped to take a breath, I realized that I have ran enough to not get caught. So I slowed down and tried to recognize the place. 

Nop, nothing.

Arghh...why am I such a stupid girl. I'll need to get a map first.

But where to find one?

I checked all of the buildings. Some of them were closed and some cost money to even buy anything.

How am I supposed to live in this place with no money in my pockets?

I circled this place, but not even  a single map of the city appeared in my sight.

This is hopeless. 

So I stopped at an old park and sat down on one of the benches. I put my face in my hands and tried to think of anything that could help me in this hopeless situation.

But no, all I freakin had to do is get some money.

But I'm not old enough to work, unfortunately. 

As I sat like that for a while, I felt something touch my shoulder. I looked up and saw an old woman with 2 little french dogs. She looked at me with kindness in her eyes.

- Is there something wrong, little girl? -

Stupid dress, why do you have to be so short? Now she thinks I'm twelve or something.

- Um...I just...um...don't have any money. -

I looked at her, helpless, and she opened her handbag and reached for something.

- Don't worry, hunny, I have some left. -

Her eyes were glowing with pure happiness as she gave me a pile of cash.

Really? Wow, she's kind.

- Thank you so, so much. -

I said honestly. She was being very generous to me. I mean, this is Washington DC, people!

- Oh, don't worry about that. I'm sure you need it more. -

And then she left walking with the dogs. I glanced her as she was gone. Then sat up.

Oh, I know. I saw  a ''McDonald's'' restaurant on my way here, I definitely need to eat.

When I reached the place, my body was so cold of the autumn wind that I was really happy to get inside of a building like this.

I reached the counter and ordered a random burger with french fries and a drink. I didn't have time to think through, cause I just wanted to eat, very much.

When I found a table in the corner of the restaurant, quietly started to chew, thinking about my future plans.

I could...rent a place and..but I don't have much money left, so..

How about...finding a job and..well, but I'm too young to work.

What the heck should I do then?

I really don't want to go back...just not somewhere there...just not before I end up seeing the whole world with my own two eyes.

As I sat there, thinking about life, I started to hear some voices coming here. I looked on my right and saw a bunch of dudes going to my direction.

I hope they won't steal my hamburger...

- Hey, beautiful! -

Really, ''beautiful''? Gosh, how old are they?

- Go away! -

I said to the boy who was speaking. He smirked and went even closer now. He ended up standing right in front of me.

- Nah, I just wan't to hang out. -

And then he went really close to my face and I felt a little tense. My body started to heat up as I glanced him with anger.

- Well I hate to break it to you, but It's never gonna happen. -

Next thing I knew he slammed his fist on the table and the nearest people gasped. I felt my heartbeats out of my chest as I kept looking at him.

I have never been in this situation before...what is going to happen to me now?

He almost whispered now as he said.

- You're going to come with me, do you understand me? -

I didn't know what else to do, so I spit on his face and tried to get away as fast as possible. While he was rubbing his face with a blanket, I tried to run away from here, but every path was closed. This boy came with a large group and almost all of them were smirking at me.

I was being trapped. So I opened my mouth and wanted to yell, but somebody already put a hand on my mouth and held me by his chest. I wanted to bite him hard, but the minute I started to bite another fist hit him hard. I stumbled forwards and when I looked at them again, everything was loud and some of those guys were yelling at each other and fighting.

I needed to get out as soon as possible. So I ran outside and a few blocks further sat on the pavement. I couldn't help but think about everything that happened to me.

So...some guys just wanted to...rape me, I think. I'm safe now, everything's okay.

I guess I sat like this for a while, at least until it was getting dark and I had to find a place to sleep. I ended up sleeping on a park bench and tried to stop my tears from falling down. 

Love you all, L. ♥
