The Obvious Fate [ON HOLD]

Chapter 1: My pity of a life

So as you all know I'm Ruby Jones, I live with my adopted 'caring' mom named Lilith. And if you couldn't tell, that,my friend, was sarcasm, my 'caring' mother....... well let's just say if I had a cold, she would assume I was going to die and would bury me alive in our backyard...... she has tried once, but I'm alive, whatever, let's move on. I go to a very horrible school called "East Charter School" it may sound like a good fancy school, but all they do there is tell you that you will never amount to anything. I'm a senior this year, and I start next week. I guess I mostly hate that school because I am an outcast there, and everyone thinks they're superior th-

Then, I hear the door open, I turn and look at the clock, it's 2:00 am. Before I can comprehend who it is, my mom screams "Ruby, help me in the kitchen!" OF COURSE, it's my devil of a mom standing by the door with her short blonde hair tousled and her bar tender outfit on, and she is drunk just like always."Yes mother." I answered. I know that may sound too nice, but despite of all the things she has done, she has a reason to be so cruel. Her 1st husband left her for another woman, then her 2nd husband committed suicide, and her only child is 20 and in jail for a life sentence, so I guess she blames herself for all of that.

I walked into our small kitchen to see her looking for some MORE alcohol to drown away her sorrows.

"Where the hell is the alcohol?"she asked.

"I don't know," I responded,"want me to walk to the store and get some?"

"Yeah, also could you get me some twinkies," she answered.

"Okay, I'll be back in an hour," I responded

At our crappy 7 eleven gas station, down the block, are creepy 30 year old men walking around the store with hoods on. I just couldn't wait to get home and sleep.

After, getting my mom's requested needs I walked home. Once I got home I found my mom laying on the couch asleep with throw up all over the floor. So of course I had to clean it all up.

~~~~~~~30 minutes later~~~~~~~~~

I finally had the chance to sleep, so I got my pj's on and quickly glanced at myself in my mirror. My green eyes glowed in the moonlight and my brown, long, wavy hair hanging down below my boobs.

As I lay down I imagine what it will be like to go back to hell in which they call school, I dread it as I slowly close my eyes and dream.
