After the talk Liam and I had, things felt different; like as if I were too desperate to tell him how I felt about him. As I gathered my thoughts, Mrs.Lauw kept calling and texting me:
~missed call from Lauw-vly😂~
Lauw-vly😂: where are you?!?
Lauw-vly😂: tell me where you are right now!!!
Lauw-vly😂: I checked your bedroom and you weren't there...
~missed call from Lauw-vly😂~
~missed call from Lauw-vly😂~
Lauw-vly😂: I'm calling the police...
Me: I'm at school. Just leave me alone!
Lauw-vly😂: Are you sure?!? Why did your school call me about you being absent? Do you skip?
Me: yeah.
~ missed call from Lauw-vly😂~

Mrs.Lauw has no idea where I am. This is brilliant! So this is how it feels to be free from adults, or rules...it kind of sucks being all alone in a forest without anyone to talk to, except for the siblings who were attached to each other.
As we reach a bench by the highway nearby, I just stand as Liam and Tina take a seat. I begin to hear sirens, and my heart is begining to beat faster than it ever did. "Guys, come on! Cops!" I literally scream in their ears, and they still don't hear me. Instead of turning myself in, I dash back into the forest, leaving them behind. Later, I find the perfect hiding spot...
Apparently, my phone died a long time ago, which was my only source of light in this tunnel of dirt, at least I think it's dirt...10:00am-----------------------------------------------
I've been in here for HOURS! So I finally get out and search for a shelter.
12:37pm------------------------------------------------
Finally, my feet gave out. I collapsed and my bottom hit the ground. So I just sit there for a minute and look around. As I look to my left, I see a small cabin titled Lill&Jill's Dill Shop.
I guess I was really happy to actually see a pre-built cabin for me to use as shelter. Eventually, I end up in front of the cabin and start to knock on the door. The door unexpectedly opens so quickly I could'nt react.
"I'm Lill, she's Jill. Want some some dill?!?" Says the girl who answers the door.
"Um...can I come in?" I say.
"Cops..." Says another girl whispers in Lill's ear.
"No no no. I'm not a cop. I'm only 15 years old. I'm actually hiding from them..." I say.
"Come!" She says, "But don't wake Papi!"
