Basic POV

You slowly picked at your meal as your father and mother talked about some trash you didn't care about. You came from a rich family and your father wanted you to be courted, so you weren't surprised when he brought it up at the table. You picked up your wine swirling it in the glass as your father coughed to gain your attention. You looked up from the activity you were doing and met your fathers stone cold eyes. He didn't think woman were tough, he only thought they were an item, a thing to be used to gain fame and money, but you knew that he would probably beat you if you didn't do as he said, "Yes father." You said with a little bit of sass hoping he didn't notice. "You will be married by next month, we found a very wealthy man looking for a wife. We decided your at that age..." He looked down at your mother, she gave him a nasty look. Your mother had the same thought as you, but she knew the same thing you did. Don't get on fathers bad side. You stared at him tears welling in your eyes. You quickly blinked them away. This was NOT the time to start acting like a wussie. You stood up wiped off your dress and knocked your wine off the table. "I shall excuse myself, where I will stay in my room, and never come out again." Your father stared at you blankly anger forming inside him. "You will be married Y/N! No excuses! The revolution will be starting soon, he signed up so first thing its over you will be married!" You stared at him for a moment before you left. You will not get married, to a person you haven't met before.

You grabbed scissors from your mothers sewing room and cut your hair, your first job was a hair dresser, so you made it look perfect. Then you got undressed. You put on some plain sweatpants and a hoodie. Before you put on the hoodie you ripped off cloth from your dress and wrapped it around your breasts. You looked in the mirror. You were now a man, there were things that were a little off, but it was ok. You know it was a kinda weird decision to just leave for a stupid reason. But, you are not going to get married and once your dad finds that out he will kill you, so you'd rather die in the revolution, fighting for your country. Instead of your parents. You packed your bag with another cloth and an extra pair of cloths. You decide to sleep right now to get energy, but you will leave once it hits 12. You laid down. "I will fight for our country, and I will win." You whispered as you slowly fell asleep.

Once you awoke you slipped the bag over your shoulder and left your room, hoping that your father docent hear you on the way out. You decide to just go out the front door, but you accidentally hit the table and the lamp falls. You heard footsteps coming downstairs. You panicked and hid behind the couch as the lights flickered on. "Y/n, Is...hat you?" You heard your mothers kind reassuring voice and you slowly stood up. She noticed your hair and came running to you, "Y/N! What happened to your hair!?" You shush her and give her a hug. She looks at you with wide eyes, "Y/N...are you running away?" You nodded, oh god. You feel guilty, your mother was a really kind women, nothing like your father, "To the revolution." You say quietly looking at your feet. Tears well up n your eyes as your mother takes you by the hands, "Good luck, win for us Y/N! Come back home safe." She says pulling you into a hug and you start crying, but you smile. Your mother waved goodbye to you as you waved back. You saw as the light turned of and it was peaceful and still outside. Silence surrounded your body, for the first time in forever you felt free and able to rule the world, until you heard a crash. You looked over and saw the bar and you knew many people going to the revolution go to the bar. You swallowed and smiled.
