Holocaust Girl

The Tables Turn

January 12th 1948
Life had been so amazing, but I knew something was coming. I could've stopped it, yet I didn't...
Christmas 1947
We were just finished giving each other gifts, Alec had gotten me a beautiful necklace with our names engraved into it. Then somebody rang the doorbell.
I answered it and fell backwards in shock, Edgar. The guy who adopted me and I lived with for awhile, and ran away from to be with Alec.

"Rebecca." He sighed, he looked exhausted.

He stepped in a shut the door, all of us except him with in awe. Edgar suddenly turned his toon to serious.
"I'm come to take you back to Paris, I have legal rights to anyway." "Until your eighteen." He pointed out. I gasped, what?!
"No!" "Your not taking Becca anywhere." Alec shouted.
"I have legal rights, and your the boy who took her from me." He snapped.
Then Jack started in, Lucy started to cry.
"She's not leaving." He hissed. He stood up next to me and but me behind him.
"I could have you all thrown in jail, your letting underaged teens drink?" He barked looking proud. Edgar grabbed my wrist harshly and started to pull me out the door.
Lucy stepped up. "At least let her get her things and let us say goodbye." She grumbled.
He sighed and nodded, "five minutes."
Edgar stood by the door as we all went into my room. Alec looked so scared, I was terrified.
"Please don't let him take me, please." I begged while I sobbed into my hands. Jack pulled me into his muscular chest before Alec has the chance.
"Bec we will all be together again soon, we will come get you as soon as you turn eighteen." "I promise." He spoke while hugging me tighter.
"Becca you have to go, but we will come back for you someday." Alec mumbled.
Lucy was just crying just like me.
"I will miss you so much." She bawled.
Then Edgar appeared in the doorway, "REBECCA WE ARE LEAVING NOW!" He roared.
I took my suitcase packed with everything I own and left with him crying. At the doorway I looked back and saw that Alec was actually crying.. Jack looked so sad as well, but knew he wouldn't cry.
Lucy looked at me with her eyes full of tears about to fall, I waved goodbye.
....................................
Edgar said absolutely nothing the whole plane and car ride. Until we got right outside the familiar house I once knew. "Emily died giving birth to our stillborn daughter; you are take care of Asher." He commanded. Asher would be three in July, I remember the days when he was a newborn. I nodded, terrified.
I missed the crew back in New York so much already. I needed to get back there..

My god have the tables turned.

I walk in and look around, it the same as I remember it. So is my room, I shudder.
I place my bags down and hang up everything in the closet. Then I hear Edgar's car pull out the driveway. I walk to what was once Asher's nursery, and what is now a animal themed child's room. "Hey Asher." I speak, I stated.
I didn't want to be here, I wanted to be back with my real friends, which I consider my family. Alec, Jack, and Lucy. Not Edgar and Asher. No...
...........................
Asher turns around and studies my face, my pained expression.
"Do you remember me? I question, trying to remain strong.
"Your the nice girl who ran away." He replied in that little kid tone.
I nodded awkwardly.

Jack's POV
God, I hate myself so f*cking much right now. I let her go, goddamn I let her go. I could've kept her here with us, I could've kept her safe. Who know's what she's going through right now. I've realized I care about her so much, I think I love her. I do, I love her. More than I do Lucy, even though she's my "girl." It'd hard to see her with Alec, but at least I know she was safe and happy. Now I don't even know where the f*ck she is! It's been three days and I haven't left my room, Alec and Nancy knock and knock. I just can't do anything... school resumes next week. I don't think I can go, I've never felt like this, so numb.
..............................................................................
Alec's POV
I just can't believe it. She's gone, my girl... gone. I love her.. but maybe it's for the best. I'm not the best thing for her, and she needs to act more proper anyway. She stopped cleaning every day, it's still clean but not perfect. She doesn't cook homemade meals anymore, we eat takeout a lot. Maybe this will help. I love her though.. but it's time to let go. Last night I was holding Lucy as she cried, but that was the first time I noticed how beautiful she was. Her blond hair like the suns rays, blue eyes like the sea. Better than Becca's dark brown hair... hazel eyes.. Not as perfect as Lucy's features. I lowered my head and kissed Lucy's soft lips. To my surprise she pulled away.. and slapped me.
"How could you!" She yelled. Then stormed out. She doesn't know what she missing. I'm way better than Jack.
.....................................................................
Lucy's POV
I stormed out of Alec's room, and pounded on Jacks. How could Alec kiss me after his girlfriend was taken away? I know he's cheated before. Once a cheater always a cheater..
Jack didn't answer, he's really torn up I guess. He did the most trying to help her. I take my things and scurry off to my place, where Becca loved. I walk into her room, old room. I bawl my eyes out, she's gone.

My god, how the tables have turned.
.......................................
Becca's POV
Three months, three freaking months.
It's March now, spring. I should be out shopping with Lucy, at school with Jack and Alec. No, Edgar teaches me a few lessons a day. I teach and slave away for Asher. He gets everything he wants, so spoiled. I won't let him grow up to be like his father is now. I teach him manners, how to treat people.
I've been thinking about my past a lot lately... the nightmares started again. Mama getting shot in front of me, papa dying. My friends getting slaughtered in front of my eyes.
I don't think I make it here much longer.
It's a long way to eighteen
I just hope the tables may turn again...
