Lost

Sorry, but I'm not finished.

Chapter 1

My foster mom calls me down to eat breakfast, half asleep and half awake I yell back "Ok!". I get ready, but as I leave I look at a photo

of me and my dad, I say "bye, Ill be home later, miss you". My foster brother hiding from behind my bed says "Your crazy". I know I

am, I walk downstairs my foster mom gives me cereal. She soon says "I have great news!". I look at her like she was crazy. "Are you letting me live on my own?" I ask in an exciting voice.

She gives me the evil look and says "no, we are sending you to London to the Westminister School for Girls". "No! I don't want to go, I

don't want to leave this is the place I grew up in!" I screamed. I run to the bus, crying. I don't want to go, maybe I can persuade her to let me stay or I can live with another family! I tried to be strong and not show my sadness, as I enter the school. As soon as school was over I ran straight home. "I can do it!" I say to myself as I ran. Suddenly my heart felt like my idea wasn't going to work, I slowly began to walk, I decided to go to the park. As I sat on the swing I began to think, I miss my dad I wish he was here. Soon it was night time and I walked home.

When I got home there was a pamphlet about the school I was going to. "I don't want to go to some snobby school" I say to my foster mom, but she ignored me and said "go to your room I will not hear anymore nonsense". I stomp upstairs in tears, I want to run away I, but I already tried that and got caught. I layed down on my bed thinking, suddenly I fall asleep, I'm lost in my dreams, dreaming a dream I don't want to leave. I hear my dad's voice he says "follow the path that leads you to happiness" , it seems so real I start running to him, but he disappears , I'm lost.

Suddenly I wake up to find that it's morning, I started to think about what my dad said. I go take a shower and get ready, "why did my

dad say that to me?" I asked myself over and over again. Maybe he is trying to help me, maybe I should go to London, what if this is my

path to happiness I think to myself. I walk downstairs giving a fake smile to my foster mom. She looks at me and said "you won't change my mind about sending you to London".

I knew she wouldn't, I decided that I want to go to London, but not to the snobby school. "Ok I made my decision I will go to London. She turned around and looked at me in a cheery way. I now realize that my dream might have been a message from my father to go and find where he was. "You will be going in two weeks on a ship to London and you will stay with Aunt Miranda" she said to me as I was leaving the house.

"Who's Aunt Miranda?" I asked myself. It was Saturday, so I went for a walk. Two weeks? I guess they don't want me to be hear when it's my foster brother's birthday. Suddenly I hear a noise from the bush nearby, I walk up to it and I see a puppy. It barks at me, I see no collar it must be homeless. Her fur feels soft to the touch, ok I shall name you Bella and maybe I should go buy you some stuff. I'll go to The pet store tomorrow,for now let's go walk. As I continued to walk I played with Bella, suddenly I felt like someone was watching us.

Next Day

"Let's go Bella, it's time to go to the pet store!" I said cheerfully. Today felt like a good day, I walked to the pet store with Bella her fur looked white as the sky, she looked relaxed as I was. As we walked slowly to the pet store I felt like someone was watching us again, Bella looked like she felt it too. I look behind us, but nobody was there, must be my imagination.

As we enter the store the cool breeze felt good, I look around for some items that would suit Bella. My budget was tight, I decided to only buy a bag of food, a collar, a small bed, and one cute outfit. I think I need a job, I'll go find one later, as we walked home Bella was scared she was walking very slow.We dropped off her stuff at the house, "If we are looking for a job, I'm good at drawing and basketball and you can help" I said to myself. We walked into town, I saw a store call "Draw Draw and More", it seemed nice and beautiful.

As I walked into the store, color pencils, glitter, and paint, lighted up the store like 4th of July it was beautiful. The store had a nice atmosphere, as I walked up to the counter I approached a man with a bushy beard, stylish hair, pink bright cheeks, stern brown eyes, he also wore a hat that says " Follow Your Dream and Heart". He seemed happy, the I asked him "umm...excuse me are you looking for employees?". His his bright pink cheeks turned brighter, he replied "Yes, but I'm looking for someone with a artistic vision and that has a creative mind!". "I think you have the perfect person, hi I'm Hanah Irene"."Well, Ms.Irene my name is Mr.Andrew" he said in a cheerful way. We took a quick interview and I was all set to work for him as a part time job. He told the instructions and rules and finally he gave me a hat just like the one he was wearing.

Wow, a job it seems wonderful, I love that store. Bella was happy too she bark and jumped, but then I realized that there wasn't much customers. "Maybe I should help Mr. Andrew" I thought, as I walked home I had a good plan for how to get more customers. At home I got big poster boards and some drawing materials and started to draw cool and beautiful designs.

As I woke up in the morning, I realized I had worked on the posters all night, suddenly I realized I was late for school. I ran to get dressed and then I saw the bus leave and screamed "NO!WAIT FOR ME!", but it was too late and the bus driver didn't hear me. Then, I decided to walk although I knew I was going to be late, as I walked I felt a weird feeling. Something was going on, something bad was going to happen. Suddenly before I can tell what happens a little boy on his bike falls down in the middle of the street and then a car come, but the brake seems broken so the driver couldn't stop and CRASH! The car hits the bike, but the boy is gone.

I look aound, but the boy just disappeared,"what just happened?!"I asked myself. I run up to the car that just crashed, but nobody was in it. Strange, because I swear I saw somebody in that car, maybe he ran because he crashed into somebody. No, I don't think he did I didn't see the car door open. Maybe somebody else saw it and will call the police, I look around for if anybody saw it, I didn't see nobody . My heart started to race,I ran to school my mind thought "No!".

When school was over I ran home, I got Bella and went to our part time job. I also got the poster, so when we arrived we hung up the posters outside the window. I upon my wonderful drawings, I went inside Mr.Andrew was at the counter "Hi" I said as I went to the back room to get paint. He replied "Good afternoon Ms.Irene", as I went to the back room I saw a megaphone and a closet full of costumes. Wow! "Mr. Andrew, where did you get these?" I asked ,he looked at me from the counter he walk up to the back room he told me "The costumes was my wife's when she was young and that the megaphone was from his uncle when he worked at a carnival". He seemed sad, "What's wrong Mr.Andrew?" I asked he replied "Well there aren't much customers these days, nobody is interested in art anymore". "Well I think I have a good plan" I said.

I found a pretty dress that was purple and pink and that was sparkly, I also found a cute hat. I got dressed and went outside with Bella and the megaphone "COME AND BUY ART SUPPLIES!" I said through the megaphone, before going outside I trained Bella to stand on a big ball. Some people were amazed and came into the store, it was working, my plan actually worked!

The store was packed with customers, Mr. Andrew look happier than ever! Someone was watching me, I look around inside the store the person was hiding from me. Bella realized it too, I looked throughout the entire store but, nobody was hiding from me.

When Mr. Andrew was closing the store for the day, he was happy "Thank you so much Hanah! Lots of customers came in today!" He said to me, " Oh it was no problem" I replied. As I walked home I thought about going to London, it wouldn't be that bad right? Maybe I should learn some French? I should start packing.
