I'm walking by the streets in town. This is all new to me cause I never left the orphanage since I was a baby so I don't know anything about places like this.
I found myself walking into a quiet and dark alley near a place that was blaring with music. As I pass, I clutch my bag cause all I needed is in here but someone held me by the arm and put his arm around my neck as I feel a cold barrel by my head.
"If you don't want to get hurt, Give me your bag" He whispered by my ear making me shudder as I heard the gun clicked. I was so scared that I just dropped the bag and ran off. I ran and ran. I just stopped running when I hot tired and my legs are giving up.
I sat by the playground as my breathing got heavier. Oh no! Not now. I feel my throat closing up as I reached for my back pocket to take the folded paper bag. I breath in and out in the paper bag trying to steady my breath. I let out a loud sigh as I finally steadied my breath. I brought my knees up to my chest. I never thought the world was lije this. I thought that if I could get out of there, I would of somehow felt some happiness in me but all I got is nothing but trouble and now I have nothing. Tears began to fall as I sat there cold. Why am I crying anyway? I chose this didn't I.
I wiped my tears as I look up the stars. They're so free twinkling in the dark sky and It somehow relaxed me. I wish I was like them. When I was 13 years old, I heard a volunteer in the orphanage while teaching the little kids saying that when people die, they'll become an angel or a star watching over us. And since then everynight, I'll look up tge stars wishing I just die to be like them. I think I'm just gonna die early anyway cause I have a terrible asthma and was born with a congenital heart disease. My mother really does hate me that she gave me this ones.
"I wish I was one of you" I whispered as I close my eyes just drifting to sleep.

Cheryl's P.O.V.
I'm going back to the orphanage. The girl, I think her name is Max, I can't seem to stop thinking about her. I can't sleep last night cause her voice is stuck to my head and I just want to meet her.
We got here at the orphanage and the people there seemed surprise that I'm here. I approach the man who toured me around.
"Oh, Ms. Cole. We didn't expect you to return, What can I do for you?"
"I want to meet this girl, Max. The girl you told me about yesterday." His smile faded and looked nervous.
"Uhm... About that?" I suddenly got nervous about his tone and I don't know why. I raised my eyebrows at him.
"Maxene escaped last night and the volunteers are still finding for her." I was speechless. Maxene, is that her full name, such a beautiful name.
"Oh alright, I'll just go." I smiled
"I'm sorry about this Ms. Cole" He smiled apologetic and I nodded. I walked to my car and got in. I started the engine and started to drive off thinking about where Maxene could be. I don't what's gotten into me that I kept worrying about this girl that I haven't even met.
I don't know where I'm heading to and the rain starts to fall hard and looks like a storm is coming. I looked at the road and the sidewalks finding someone. When I looked at my leftside, I saw a figure. I pulled over and leaned byvthe window to see a clearer view. It's walking alone under this heavy rain, soaked and shivering. I was just to open my door I saw her fell down making my eyes widen. So I immediately walked out of the car. The rain hitting my head and carefully crossed the road rushing to the girl.
"Oh God" I muttered as I got closer. I crouch doqn and immediately swing her arm by my shoulder and stood her up. She's pretty light and very thin. I held her waist and leaned her to me as we started crossing the road. I got her in my car and I also got in and sped home.----------------------------------------------
Max's P.O.V.
I woke up and immediately coming into my senses wondering where I am. I sat up straight but regretted it immediately cause my head started pounding. I looked around. I'm in a room with walls painted blue. I looked underneath the covers and saw that I'm in I think they called pajamas. And it's pink, I hate pink. Where the f*ck am I, who dressed me. I don't remember walking here, All I remember is, I was walking by the streets when the rain poured hard soaking me. That's all I remembered.
I froze when I saw the door opened revealing a woman. And she smiled when she saw me. I just stared at her.
"You're awake. I brought you some soup" I stared at her as she placed the tray by the table and sat on the bed.
"How're you feeling pet?" I didn't speak, I just stared at her. She sighed and mumbled something.
"Oh right. I'm Cheryl, and you are?" Why is she nice? She don't know me then she's being nice.
"Where am I?" I said bluntly but her eyes widen making me raise my eyebrows.
"Are you Maxene?" I wad taken aback by her question. How did she knew my name. I frowned at her.
"Its Max, and how'd you knew my name" I said defensively. Then she smiled.
"Yesterday, I visited the orphanage and I heard you shut us up" I didn't respond trying to remember. She said her name was Cheryl and yesterday someone called Cheryl Cole visited that prison so it must be her.
"So you're Cheryl Cole?" She nodded. Well, I must say she's pretty.
"How're you feeling?" As she held my hand and I immediately looked at it. I hate people I don't know touching me so I immediately pulled my hand away and I look at her she had a sad look on her face.
"M'fine. Where are my clothes?"
"They're in the washers pet cause they're soaking wet."
"I need to go" I immediately got out of bed and stood up making me a bit dizzy. Cheryl rushed towards me but I stopped her.
"M'fine" I mumbled as I stood up straight.
"I need to go" I repeated.
"But Maxene the-"
" Its Max" She sighed.
"Max, there's a storm coming and may I ask you if you have somewhere to stay." I stared at her. This woman's smart. When I didn't respond she smiled.
"You can stay here if you want" I frowned at her. How can she let me stay in here that I figured her house when I'm a total stranger to her.
"You wouldn't want me here?" She folded her arms.
"Why, would you steal, would you do something bad"
" Maybe" I said and she giggled making me frown.
"That's not very convincing babe. Now come on stay here" She smiled and I started thinking about it. I'll just crash here anyway. What could possibly go wrong. I looked at her and nodded. She grinned at me.
"But, I have rules" I said firmly and she raised her eye brows.
"First of all, I don't like pink." She giggled making me roll my eyes at her. " Second, no touching me. I don't like people touching me. Third, don't scare, shock or surprise me cause I might die on that. And-"
"Wait, what?" I stared at her not knowing what she's talking about. "Why will you die?"
"I have a heart disease so don't try to kill me. The last one is when I'm in this room don't bother me and leave me alone" She nodded at me. I think I can manage being here.
