Maxene P.O.V.

I sat here alone in this stupid room. There's a party going on downstairs cause someone called Cheryl Cole is coming. I've never heard her name before and they're being all excited and honestly, It's really annoying me cause the music's so loud and I can hear from here their voices and laughters. Like how can they still laugh if they've already been abandoned by their so called parents. I put on my hood and covered my ears trying to block the noises.

I've been abandoned and hated since I was a baby and no one tried to adopt me cause they said I'm wierd and strange. They also said that I'm too quiet and always alone that's why they'd think I'm dangerous or something. I don't speak to anyone and I'd rather sit here alone in my room just staring at nothing. I really don't think about my parents cause I'd figured out they don't care so why would I care.

I'm planning to escape tonight when they're all asleep. I found a hole behind the bushes by the playground while I was wandering around and I thought of a plan to escape this prison.

I heard loud footsteps and voices getting closer and I've had enough. I stood up and walked to the door opening it slightly.

"Can you keep it down" I said loudly before closing the door and locked it. I collapse in bed irritated covering my head with a pillow closing my eyes and enjoying the silence.

Cheryl's P.O.V.

I frowned as I heard the voice from a door that shut us up and looked at the man who's taking me on a tour around the orphanage as he let out a sigh.

"I'm sorry about that Ms. Cole" I suddenly felt intrigue about that girl.

"Who's that?"

"Her name is Max but I would suggest not to bother that girl. She's a closed book." He said as we walk through the hallways.

"Why is that?" I asked confuse.

"Oh. She's been here all her life and no one tried to adopt her, it's a bit sad actually, they think that the reason she's quiet and has no friends is because she's dangerous All she wanted is lock herself in that room and do nothing." I kinda felt sorry for that girl and I immediately can't stop thinking about her even though I've never met her. It reminds me of my daughter that I left in a house cause I can't cope being a young mam. I regretted that decision everyday.

"Ms. Cole... Are you alright?" The man said snapping me out of my thoughts. I turned to him and smiled.

"Sorry, I was in my own world there" I laugh nervously. He nodded and continued with the tour. I looked back at that girl's door and sighed.

Max's P.O.V.

It's already seven in the evening and I'm already putting my clothes in my bag. I don't have much clothes so it's just easy to pack. I was fixing my bed when there was a knock on the door. I rolled my eyes and groaned.

"Maxene, dinner's ready" I continued to fix my bed.

"Go away" I said loudly and heard footsteps fading from the hallways. Don't they get it, I've been doin that since I turned twelve. I only eat early in the morning during breakfast cause there's just few people around and the other's are still asleep.

Few hours later, everyone's asleep. I got ready for the escape and glanced at the clock. It's one in the morning so they're all definitely in dreamland right now. I put on my hood and grabbed my bag as I slowly got out if my room and slowly walked down the halls. I walked downstairs quietly making sure to be quiet. I snucked out to the back door leading to the playground. I took a deep breath and looked around as I tiptoed to the bushes and immediately went behind it as I found the big hole. I threw my bag through the hole and slowly went through it. I let out a breath and grabbed my things as I started to walk away looking around. I did it. I got out of that prison. So where would I go?
