I came back from school and thought I would be alone but when I opened the door there was my father. Next to him stood my suitcase. "Why?" I asked myself but before I could ask my father already said: "Torben listen, I have to speak with you." At first I thought he wants to travel or at least buy a new suitcase. "I am woried about what our neighbours are thinking about me." What did he say? I was confused and looked at him. "All our neighbours know what you have done. I want you to go before more bad things happen and they think, I'm a bad father." Did he really say this? I ran upstairs to my room and took the most important things under tears and only wanted to leave."Go to your mother, I think she will have a place for you." I didn't want to go to my mother, moreover I didn't even know where she lives. I took my suitcase and ran away to the station and there on a train. That's how I came here.

Maybe I should do as my father said and go to my mother. Thinking about this I see abright light and shortly after it follows a deep growl. The rain hits the windows of the train. I don't know where my mother lives. I haven't seen her for 11 years now. And why should she take me back after such a long time?

I only remember a few things about the place where I lived until I moved to my father but I think I should at least try my luck. Maybe, when I find her, she will be happy and wants me to stay. Even if not, the thought of seeing her again after such a long time makes me glad. I remember her as a pretty woman, very tall, with blonde long hair like me, brown eyes and a nice smile. The second picture I have from her in my mind,  I dont't want to remember.

Even though the thunder and lightning stopped, it's very dark now. I look at my watch, it's already midnight. When this train enters his last station I decide to sleep at a bench. I try to make it as cuddly as possible for me. Suddenly I hear a growl. It's my belly. Only know I recognize how hungry I am. But apart from me having no money the shops are already closed. So I lay down at the bench very hungry and try to sleep. I seem to be the only one who is still at the station. It takes much time untill I find sleep.
