I started walking to the beach. I took off my shoes and started walking in the water. The water was warming my feet while the breeze was cooling down my face, that was burning from the tears. I wanted to go back to France, where I belonged, where my friends and my life were. Tears were falling down faster while I started remembering the day we said good-bye. The day when even the people I never thought would care for me, they showed me they loved me. The time we were hugging and crying together trying to comfort each other with failure.
When I looked up I saw a wooden bench and I realised I didn't see it when we came. I looked behind me and I couldn't see the house, nor any house near. I went to the bench and looked in the water. I saw some fishes and i started kicking some little rocks in the water from the bench. I suddenly saw from the edge of my eyes someone and I turned to see who it was. I saw someone, he had dirty blond hair and light brown eyes. Such mesmerising eyes... I suddenly turned fast to go away and I slipped down hitting my head on the bench. I heard the boy shouting "Hey!" and then a splash.
I woke up in my room and I saw my mom stearing at me with tears in her eyes and smiling. She hugged me fast. "Ouch!", I whimpered. My mom looked at me " Thank god, Lilian! What where you thinking?". I looked at her and I was confused. I remembered then that I hit my head and fell in the water. "I can't remember really well... I slipped and fell". My mom hugged me again crying " We were so worried! We heard a knock at the door and when we opened it we saw you unconscious in front of our door in the middle of the night! What happened?". I thought if this guy saved me... " I am okay mom I just hit a bit my head and when I got out of the water I started heading home but when I arrived I was exhausted from the hit and I just passed out..." I closed my eyes and my mom kissed my fore head. " We called for a doctor. He will come and check you, to see if you are all right".
I fell asleep for a little time. I heard the doorbell ring and I woke up. It was the doctor. He came up and checked me. He said I hit hard my head that it wasn't possible to not be unconscious and get out of water, unless someone pulled me out and brought me here. I just had to rest and don't get tired much. I closed my eyes hoping my parents wont start lecturing me... I didn't want to tell them the truth... I didn't want to get into more fights with my parents...
My parents came in a bit worried and serious in the same time. They sat next to me and looked at me " We know how much you miss your friends and that we didn't talk to you in the right time about it, but doing this to yourself is out of mind! You will be grounded for being illogical." I stood up furious and started yelling to them and crying " Well if you didn't want me to do this to myself then you should ask my opinion at times too! What am I to you? You always take decisions for me and I always follow your 'orders' no matter what! I never had freedom! I never could make friends because of you! I always was left to the side even by you! Did you really ever care for me? I hate you! I finally made friends and you ruined the only freedom I had! I never want to talk to you again!" I suddenly misstepped and fell down. My parents stood up scared and looked at me shocked " Leave me alone! I don't want anymore your help! You kill me!"
My parents were looking at me with blank eyes. I knew I said painful words, but this was the truth... It hurt me too. They started leaving... My dad's eyes were showing he was mad. I staid down for a while letting my tears flow. I couldn't believe I got into a fight with them... But I finally told them what I was holding for so much time. After a while I stood up and laid on the bed and fell to sleep.
