A Hard Love

                My names Aislinn Peters and from a very young age I’ve been on the run. At the age of ten I watched a man brutally murder my parents. The reason, I never knew. All I knew was that he was going to come back for me. He threatened the friends I would have had and the rest of my family. So distanced myself; I learned how to protect myself on my own and only stayed in on place for a few months. I went to school there and got a job. The FBI had to know where I was, but never kept it on file for fear that he’d find it.

                This time I’m moving to St. Helena a small town in California. I didn’t know what to expect. This was the first time I had ever been in California. Although I was pretty sure I would like it. The warm temperature was a good thing for me. I loved the sun.

                Most would consider me a bad girl because I didn’t care. I scared them with my looks and my attitude. None of the schools were aware of what I had been through, but were warned by the FBI that I had to stay in school no matter what I did.

 The thing was just didn’t care I was being hunted and so many times I just wanted to give up and let him come to me. I was sure I could take him, but I didn’t know if I could live with his death on my conscience. I know for sure this time I was done running. I wasn’t going to get close to anyone here, but I was going to let him find me and end it once and for all. One would be left standing, but either way he was going down.
