Charlie,POV

I can't get out, can you just go around the block Once? I ask my mom slamming the car door if I go to school today it won't end. I have to be at work eight thirty charlie. My mom says I just keep my mouth shut. Oh my god we're doing this again. She says to me before starting the car up and driving again. Thank you just park here. I say she just keeps driving. Mom I said park here you missed it. I say to her angry. No I'm going to work your coming with me God I can't believe you.

I sit in the uncomfortable silence of my mom's office. Don't you have something to do school work? She asks before going back to her work. I grab her stick pad paper and hole punch. I start punching holes in the notes repeatedly. Can I have this hole punch? I ask her sarcastically she takes it away from. Just there and pretend that your doing something. She says before working again. Can I mime? I ask her sarcastically I make a fake gun with my fingers and put it in my mouth I pretend a shot went off pretending to be dead. Your not funny, if only my husband knew what I had to deal witb. She says I felt my blood boil when she said that. I love how you refer to him as your husband. I say to her venom in my voice. He is my husband. She says going back to her work. You can run off and get a new husband what he is is my dad can't you just say that for the love of god. I say to her making her stop working and look at me. Fine but I don't wanna talk about this right now it just to frustrating. She said but I interrupt her. It's to hard it gives me clustered head ache I know. I say to her. Do you have a problem or something. She asks me slamming her hand down. No I'm just bored because I know everything you're gonna say to me before you even say it. I say to her she rolls her eyes. You don't believe me huh. I say to her. No I don't. She says going back to work. I'm gonna write down the next thing your gonna say to me. I say grabbing a note pad and a pen. I'm not gonna play. Your little games Charlie. I say interrupting her. congrats. She says I reveal the word she just said. Okay here's some your never gonna guess. She says I put the pen and paper down listening to her. Your father would be so disappointed in you freak. She says I feel my face turn red and anger flow through me I quickly grab her keys which sends her back into her wall I angrily storm out of her office I open the office entrance doors with my mind I start her car up and start driving heading for the city I don't wanna come back to that bitch or that hell hole called school I'd rather be in the city not in my fuckin personal hell.

I keep driving far away from ScrantonI need to get rid of the car my mom probably already called the cops on me. I'm not gonna go back ever my whole life already sucks so I should start a new life. I pull into a back alley of a gas station. I shut the car off I slam the door close. I go inside the gas station I grab a bag of funyns then grabbing a smart water I go to the front desk to pay. You look like your in hurry where you heading? The clerk says to me. Where's the nearest bus station? I ask them while pulling out ten bucks from my bag. Down the road about seven miles from here where you going? They ask again I roll my eyes. New York somewhere nice keep the change. I say taking my food with me I go back to my mom's car I pop the trunk open my mom keeps up to a hundred to five hundred dollars in the tail light I grab hammer that's in the back I hit the taillight till it came out I hammer the back open Its all in there it will a least get me new clothes or a bus ticket I close the trunk leaving the car I start walking away from the car. I keep walking down the road I could hear the sound of thunder meaning rain and that's kinda bad for my case I'm wearing a uniform and I'm in tights. I don't care how I get to the city I just wanna leave
