Kiara's P.O.V
Walking home, I hear footsteps coming up behind me. I turn there's no one there. So I keep walking. I have anxiety issues and even a quiet rattle in the bushes is enough to make me fear for my life. I feel as if everywhere I go someone is watching me. The footsteps don't stop. Someone is there! I was getting sick of them. I turned my head to see 'them'. I need to run.
Why are they following? Why do this to me? Questions flowed through my mind but I had no answers and no idea what to do. I kept running. I could here them catching up so I ran faster. I ran straight into my home and closed the door behind me. I peaked out the window to see them laughing and walking up to the door to attempt to tease me.
I fled to my bedroom and ran underneath my bed. I had no clue what to do other then to just hide. Oh no, I thought to myself. They can come in. I didn't lock the door. I closed my eyes hoping it was all just a dream. It wasn't. This was happening. I was here, so are they.
I heard the front door creak and footsteps come inside my home. I heard them frantically searching throughout the house. I heard there footsteps coming up the stairs. Then watched as there shadow neared towards the door. I listened very closely at the high pitched creak as the door opened and held my breath in hopes not to make a single noise. I watched as there black boots with mud stains on them came towards my bed. And as they bent down to take a peak. And as they stared straight into my soul. I know this isn't possible but they stared so long and so hard it felt as if there eyes burnt through my skin. Then they grabbed me.
It wasn't them anymore. It wasn't the bullies. It was someone completely different. I don't know them. Maybe they scared the bullies away.
They grabbed my arm. Pulled my arm. Until I was stood up. I squirmed in there grip but it was useless, I couldn't get away. I wanted to curl up in a ball unseen by anyone but it was too late. They was already burning multiple holes in my skin with there piercing eyes. Staring me down as if they wished me dead. Then turned. Without a word they walked out of my room and out my house.
As I heard the door close behind them I let out a sigh of relief and stopped sweating. Then another question came into my mind. Where are my parents? They should be here. There is no reason they would go.
I searched the house to see if they left me any notes, they hadn't. They wouldn't just leave without telling me that isn't like them they would usually at least leave me a note.
I then stopped my thoughts and took a good luck at the damage of my house. No table was left unturned. No curtain was left in the wall. Literally. They pulled the curtains off. What were they even trying to do.
---------------------------------------------------------
After a couple of hours I had fixed the damage they had done to the house. Well most if it. They smashed my mom's favourite vase and shattered our family photo. I couldn't do anything about these to for the time being. After I just curled up in a ball on my sofa re-thinking my life.
I didn't want anything to do with anyone. It was getting late and my parents still hadn't arrived. This was very bad they say they will always be back by 10 and it's midnight.
---------------------------------------------------------
By morning I wasn't in my house anymore. I was on a street just a couple miles away from my school. I know this because I check on Google maps.
I had a bag with me. It contain about 1000 pounds some food and drinks clothes and school stuff. It also had a note that looked newly written. This is what was written on the note:
Dear,
KiaraWe are sorry but you can't stay here for your own good. We can't really tell you what is happening but we hope you respect our decision. Don't bother coming back. The house has already been sold. We didn't want to do this to you but we had to, we are sorry.
In this bag we provided you with some necessities you will need. Hopefully you can find yourself a place and get a job to keep you money up.
Hope to see you soon.
Sincerely,
Your loving parentsWhat!! How could they do this to me. I am there daughter. They cant just leave me defenseless and alone. This again doesn't seem like them. What have they been hiding from me.
I checked my phone it was on 46%. I need to charge it. Then I can find out what happened to them.
Fudge. It's 9. I missed school. This is bad. I cant let this end up ruining my eduacation. I need to make sure I wake up on time tomorrow.
But first i need to get my priorities straight. So I should make a list.
1. Get a place.
2. Get a job.
3. Find my parents.
4. Make them tell me what's going on.
5. Go to school.
6. Graduate.
7. Go to college.
8. Go to university.
9. Die.OK. OK. I know I didn't need to go that for. Anyway let's start with 1. I walked with confidence to try to find a place to crash. Before I did this I headed to go get some food. I hate ordering.
I stood in the queue for 12 minutes. I had nothing better to do with my time so I counted. I couldn't bring myself to speak. I felt to self conscious. I pointed to what I wanted and luckily they understood what I meant. I paid then left as soon as possible. I don't want to be here. Not alone anyway.
