The fireworks sparked overhead as I ran through the crowd. I was trying to hide from him. I was being chased. I had escaped. I was free... Or atleast I was so far. I thought I had gotten away without him knowing but someway,somehow he found me. I had known they were doing fireworks today, I heard the ignorant kids screaming as they lit the illegal pyrotecknics into the air. 

He would not give up on having me. He told me I would make it longer than them. I was different than the rest in his eyes.

The fireworks grew louder and i realized it was the grand finale. I needed to get out of here before it all ended. I ran faster than I ever had before, fearing that if i slowed down it could cost me my life.

"Hey watch it!" I had ran into a guy and spilled his drink on him.

I didn't stop I couldn't. I knew those few seconds I wouldve stop to say sorry could've meant death.

"Get back here you little bitch!' He yelled.

I lost it. I was tired of running, tired of being chased. My knees buckled and I fell to the grass. tears fell from my all ready red eyes. I surendered.

"Get up and act like a normal, sweetheart," His voice sounded like knives searing into my skin.

I stood up and he had ahold of my wrist. I forced a fake smile but I knew it wasn't fooling anyone yet they didn't try to stop him. I knew I would get punished for this when we got to the house. With my free hand I whiped the tears from my face, it was no use more flowed down my face. It was offical I was going back to my nightmare.
