Unknown's p.o.v
I've been running since 2:40. I don't know what time it is now but I can tell it's late. It was summertime so the sun usually remained high in the sky until at least 9 but now the sun was setting. I was losing daylight fast. I have no clue where I am. I left my phone in my school bag, which I sadly was at home.
Home. Such a wonderful word. The all-American, "home sweet home." But not mine. My mom fought with her boyfriend about almost everything. His excuse always came back to me. It was my fault. I was the cause of whatever happened. It was always me. After a while, my mom began to believe him. Everyday she resented me more and more until finally she snapped. She hurt me. Daily. Physically and emotionally. Heh, and her boyfriend just sat back and laughed. I've dealt with this for 3 years now. I've given up.
I've made a point to stay away from home as much as possible. I would stay at the library or crash at my friends place for a night or two. My mom didn't care. She didn't miss me. She only missed me when she needed me for something. I hated her. Whole-heartedly, I hated her.
My friend, the only one who didn't want me for my looks, has gotten more and more busy lately. The library is closed due to the reconfiguration and renovation of the top floor. I had no place to go. I wasnt going home. I couldn't. So I didn't. Now here I am. Running aimlessly toward where I think I'll be ok. Toward where I went suffer. Toward nothing, yet everything. For that foolish act of running, my life has changed. For the better or worse, I've still yet to decide.
