Emilys POV:

I waited until nightfall. I tried hard not to punch "father" as he tucked me into bed while I quietly gagged. Creep. Before he left he closed the window and locked it. Shit. I wouldn't let that stop me so I waited until I could hear his obnoxious snoring, to get out of bed and figure out a way to get the window open. I could just steal the key from his room but that was risky so I grabbed the small bedside table and smashed the window. I immediately heard him jump out of bed and start to run towards my room I had a choice to make and I had to make it quickly. I stood on the window ledge and leapt out flying through the air...For a few seconds, I soon began to fall to my death. Wow, I did not think this through. Luckily I landed with just a few bumps and scratches as well as an agonizing pain in my now slightly jutted leg but meh its just twisted right? I started running as fast as my legs would take me which wasn't very fast but fast enough to beat old man "father".

I eventually stopped a few miles later and sat on a park bench, I was tired and my leg was even more agonizing pain from running but it didn't matter now, I was free and ok. I don't remember much after that but my vision filled with black spots and I felt unbearable nausea hit me. I wake up burning I have a fever but that no worry compared to my leg, that now hurts more than ever and looked kinda a lot broken but that's impossible. I stand up anyway and ask a kind looking woman where I was "why you're in Philadelphia dearie" shit how'd I get all the way out here? "thank you so much I wish I could repay you but I've no money" i shouted back as I ran to the nearest subway to find a map.

I traced the route I needed to take in order to get back to new york I knew it was wrong but I had to get on the tram without buying a ticket it was the only way to discretely get home I wasn't even sure if Lin really wanted me. Probably not. I got on and luckily no security got on board as I slept all the way back to New York. I got off and smelled the oh so familiar smell of piss and sweat in the subway tunnels of New York. I decided my best course of action would be to watch Lin and Vanessa for awhile to see if they actually want me back which is highly unlikely.

~timeskip~

I have watched all my friends and family for a few weeks now. At first, they were still looking for me and upset I even thought about talking to them and making myself known but they soon changed. They assumed I had been murdered by now they cried at the funeral and after but it didn't take long for them to move on. Sure they still missed me but they're lives are back to normal again and this showed me that life goes on when your dead no one REALLY cares. Weirdly I haven't seen Sophia through the whole thing it was odd.

I'm malnourished and dehydrated though I know I have to go home or steal or something. I can't think straight my minds fuzzy what do I do lord help me. I sat in an alley near Lin and Vanessa's apartment block and blacked out.

Sophias POV:

I feel so alone now that Emily's gone, she's been pronounced dead though they never found a body or any evidence. It just can't be I refuse to believe she's gone, she just can't be, she can't, she...I feel anger wash over me and I rip my bed apart ripping the sheets and destroying my pillows. I fall to the floor what had I just done? I ruin everything! I whisper to myself " hey...Em if you can hear me please come back I promise I'll never cut again if you I'll even get help but only if you come back please, please. I cried myself to sleep even though it was only 4 in the afternoon.

I've been in my room for weeks barely eating I can't deal with this anymore it should've me who died Emily was so bright and had her life ahead of her yet it was stolen from her. Why? I leave a note on my bed then headed out ignoring Anthonys calls to know where I'm going. I run through the streets of New York avoiding everyone possible but I'm stopped in my tracks as I notice a tall, frail body unconscious in an alley. I move in closer. Its Emily, I call an ambulance and inform Lin since 'nessa is at work. I soon sneak off though and continue on my way.

When I arrive the wind blows freely through my hair filling me with a sense of tranquillity. The building was tall, a guaranteed death. I look down a crowd has formed, I see Anthony and Jasmine down there they'd read my note. I gave them I pitying smile and wave before stepping off. I run into the light and I'm free finally free of the earthly pains that once haunted me. My scars were gone replaced with happiness.

Hey, I found this draft and decided to finish it and getting something out. I'm sorry to confirm that Sophia won't be back it's not a dream she's dead, she's gone. Also if you're wondering why Sophia wasn't overjoyed to see Emily alive it's because for Sophia it never sunk in that she was alive, she was so set on freedom it didn't have time to set in. As well as that she'd never accepted Emily's death in the first place she'd only been through 4 stages of grief and she was already depressed and suicidal this only heightened it.
