Trapped

Tears

As Ivory walked down the isolated alleyway, she couldnt help feeling scared. A branch would snap, A dog would bark, and Ivory would let out an anxious gasp. She knew she was alone, but the entire idea was so frightning to her.

A quick glance over her shoulder confirmed that she was alone. Who else would be in a deserted alleyway during the dead of the night? Well- except criminals of course.

Reaching the end of the allyway, Ivory let out a sigh of relief. Ivory thought of how she would find him. The man she despised could be anywhere. Just thinking of the man, her hands clenched into fists, and her face immediately went from sweet and innocent to pale and angry.

Attempting and failing to supress her rage, she slowly counted from 1 to 10.
1, 2, 3-
How dare he
4, 5, 6-
Does he know how much pain he caused my mother?
7, 8, 9
He left her when we were 3!
10-
I WILL FIND YOU, DAD!

Her breathing abruptly stopped. Deciding to look for her father the next day, she clumsily climbed a tree, her expensive clothes snagging on intruding branches, and her eyes eventually closed...

Addisons eyes snapped open. She stood up and opened her curtains, the light instanly illuminated her happy face. Her blonde hair glowed in the sunlight, the curls cascading down her back like golden party streamers. Her striking emerald green were dotted with specks of warm brown and her mouth was fixed in a beam, showing her rows of perfect pearl-like teeth.

"Ivy!" she called in a sing-song tone. When no reply came, she turned and saw Ivorys bed empty. Slitghly confused by Ivorys disappearance, she spotted a crumpled note on her bedside table. Once she read what it said, her heart stopped momentarily and her stomach dropped what seemed like a few thousand meters.

Without hesitation, Addison, drew the curtains, locked her door and sobbed in the shadows.
