C H A P T E R O N E

Memories can haunt a living soul forever, whether it was good or bad. Camilla faces these memories every day. Every time she remembers, she feels like she relives that damn memory. Though when she is distracted she has that... Freedom. Anyways, Camilla lives in a big town. You would expect a girl to love it, because it's not boring. Well she hates it here. It's loud, annoying, so much drama, it's just not the place for her.

She likes quiet and calm places, she doesn't care for the population. If she head to choose she would prefer the smaller towns over the big ones.

She works at a bakery. She is mostly in the back actually baking bread and other treats, but she also walks around and sells them. She does get paid good enough to feed herself and her horse, Marcie.

Today was just another day at the bakery, but Camilla was on the verge of hopping on her horse and just running away.

It had been a rather stressful day for the young girl. People wanting to have the fresh baked bread, instead of just buying what's on the shelf. Her boss, Mr. Brown, had promised everyone they would get their fresh bread. Camilla's boss was a difficult one. He loved money, he loved his wealth. He was a divorced man, with no children.

Camilla was one of his first employee's when he started his business and that was just a couple months ago. Camilla has stayed there ever since, but after today she is thinking about relocation.

"Camilla! Get that dough in the oven!" Her boss shouted and of course she obeyed.

It was almost time for her to go him, just an hour or so to go, depending on how busy the bakery is. After a good two more hours, the bakery was finally calm. Camilla got out of the bakery as quick as possible and walked home, not even saying goodbye to Mr. Brown or anyone for that matter.

When she arrived home, she was tired and hungry. She went to her small kitchen, getting some bread out and a small plate of veggies. She ate her small meal, but she was still hungry. She never paid attention to her diet, so she let it go. She went outside, seeing her horse Marcie drinking from the watering hole.

Camilla smiled and gently walked over to her horse, petting Marcie's neck. Marcie huffed and stomped one of her front hooves, happy to see her owner. Camilla smiled,

"Hey Marcie..."

Camilla went over to the last hay bale she had, feeding Marcie. Camilla petted Marcie one last time, before heading inside her house again. She sat down at her small kitchen table, thinking. At times this was a bad idea, but right now she needed to think.

She didn't like it here. She didn't like the people, she didn't like the drama. She wanted something new. She wanted her life to be a little more exciting. All she did was work and work. That's all she ever seemed to do. She didn't just want to work, she wanted to make friends and maybe even mind that special someone. She knew she wouldn't find any of that here. Most of the girls are dramatic, the boys would never go for the non-wealthy girls anyway.

Camilla finally made the decision. She packed a small bag, filling it with food and water. She grabbed another bag, bigger than the other one, packing her clothes and anything she needed. After she was done, she grabbed her bags and made her way outside, towards Marcie. She saddled her horse and attached her bags to each side of her saddle. She climbed atop of her horse, looking back at her house. It was small, it was old, and at any given moment it is just going to fall to pieces.

Camilla sighed and made a kissing noise, lightly kicking Marcie's side. The grey beauty obeyed the command and started galloping away. Camilla knew a trail, right by the woods that was near her big town. She didn't know here it led to, but she went along the trial anyways.

It was already dark yes, so leaving now was not the greatest idea, but she knew not to go into the woods. She just trailed along, right next to the woods, watching out for any trouble.

She didn't know how long this journey would take, she didn't know where she was going, but she knew she had to just keep going. She was going to find a new life and love it to the fullest. No matter the cost.
