"Georgia, you must go. Run now my child. Please run", Georgia's mom begged. The white men were coming. They were gonna take her mom and dad away from her.
"Mommy. I don't wanna go wif out you doe", Georgia said.
"And what about Daddy", She added.
"Georgia, just go. Please. I'll find you in time", her mom said. The white men came barging in the old wooden house and started to snatch up every black man and woman they saw. But Georgia ran and ran just like her momma told her too. She ran until she bumped into something. A boy. A white boy.
"A swave", the little boy questioned. Georgia gasped a little.
"I'm no swave to no mans or womans. I am free", Georgia said. The boy looked at her arm and pointed to a birth mark.
"Did you get burn therew", the white boy asked. Georgia shook her head 'no'.
"It a burfmart", Georgia said. The boy smiled and nodded. He grabbed her arm and dragged her to a place.
"Where are you tating me, cracker", Georgia said.
"My houth. I can hide you there. You running from someone. I know it", the boy said. They arrived at the house a few minutes later and they stopped.
"I have a shmall house dat my dad built for me. I can hide you here. He never goes in there anymore ever sense my mummy died", the boy said sadly. Georgia nodded, resembling in the same situation. With her mother gone too. They both ran to his small house and sat down.
"What's your name, slave", the boy said. Georgia picked up a piece of straw that was on the ground.
"I done told ya, I ain't no slave and my name is Georgia, Georgia Rose. I am 6 years old and I have losted my family. And you, cracker", Georgia had said.
"Well my name is Harry Styles. I am 7 years old. My family lives in that done house right there. Nice to meet you, Geo", the white boy said.

Georgia woke up and wiped the tears that was sliding down her cheeks. She has had that dream for some time now. But the thing is, it wasn't a dream. A memory more like.

It's a good thing she woke up though. Her alarm clock wasn't set off yet and she needed to do chores before her master woke up.

Georgia stood up and walked out of the room that she shared with her secret boyfriend. Slaves weren't aloud to have boyfriends because they might be torn apart one day and it will be a crap load to handle.

She lazily walked to the bathroom and ate a mouth pad. It's just a little paper-like pad that slaves eat to freshen their breath so they don't have to touch their owners hygiene items. She then walked back out and headed toward the kitchen.

She turned on the light and pulled out a carton of almond milk and a box of eggs. She closed the fridge and turned around only to be frightened by a body behind her.

She gasped and dropped the carton of milk on the floor. Luckily she didn't drop the eggs which would have gotten her in trouble considering who was standing in front of her.

It was her master, Frank.

"Hey, Georgia", Frank said. Georgia did a curtsy and bowed her head.
"Hello master Frank", she said as she stood up straight.
"What are you doing up this early", she him.
"I could ask you the same thing", Frank said as he did a little smirk.

"Oh I just wanted to get a head start on the chores and stuff", she told him.
"Oh. Well that's nice. I'm actually glad I uh bumped into you here", Frank told her.

"Why is that master", she said as she bent down to get the carton of milk.
"I have to tell you something. It's bad", he said while looking at her straight in the eyes.

Her face turned worried and she walked closer to him.
"What do you have to tell me", she said.
"Well. I have to sell you", Frank said.

Georgia was confused.
"Why master? Have I done something wrong? I-I'll do better. I promise just please don't release me", Georgia begged.
"It's not that at all. You've been nothing but a perfect slave. But I have to get some money and you're the only one in this very house that is worth more than $1,000,000", Frank had said.

Georgia never knew how much she was worth. That was a lot.
"Wow. Am I really that much", Georgia asked him.
"Yes Georgia. You are", he said.

"Well master, I will miss you very much", Georgia said while opening her arms.
"I will miss you too sweet, sweet Georgia", Frank said. They let go of the hug and looked at each other.

"You don't have to do any more chores from now on", Frank said.
"You will be sold on Monday", Frank added.
That's two days away. Not enough time to pack. She might need to start now.
"Well what will I be doing if I don't have chores", Georgia asked.

"Well you can babysit the children. No one does that", Frank said. Georgia nodded and placed the breakfast items back in the fridge.
"OK but who's gonna make you guys breakfast", Georgia asked innocently.

"Georgia baby, that's for me to handle. Just go pack and I'll handle breakfast right now", Frank told her. Georgia nodded and started her way to her room.

Picture is Master Frank.
