Marian's POV

I woke up, but felt pretty tired that I stayed in bed and fell asleep again. The next time I woke up, I went out of bed and fixed it, going to the mirror I looked at my face, which has a drool mark and my hair sticking out everywhere. I rushed to the bathroom. Wait a minute, why is it that everytime I use the bathroom I rush? Eh, whatever.

After using the bathroom, I dried my hair by shaking my head so hard and I went downstairs. I didn't see my parents in the living room or the kitchen, which either meant that they went out or something came up that they don't want me to know.

I cooked my breakfast, which is bacon and eggs. While cooking, I touched the oil, which burnt my finger and now it hurts as hell. I went to get the first aid kit and treat it. I put my food on the plate and made orange juice. I set it on top of the island and ate it. I put it on the dishwasher and washed it.  I quickly changed and left a letter on the coffee table saying that I went out.

I really didn't know where to go because Charies was in an interview for his school, so I'm just walking around.

Suddenly, I remembered my secret place where I go when I want to be alone or just really sad. It was hidden very well and I found out about it when I got lost. It was hidden in a very big forest near our house. It has a lake and next to it was cave with sparkling crystals. At night, I sometimes camp out there because it removes everything in my mind. The lake there is crystal clear that at night you can see the reflection of the moon and stars.

I looked around to see if anyone followed me and continued walking. After 3-5 minutes, I was already there.

I laid down at the green grass and rolled. I miss this place. I miss the smell of the breeze. I miss the forest. I miss being alone outside. It's just I got caught up with being Charies, that I forgot about everything about myself.

I looked at the sun and admired the nature. Remember when I said I'm an indoor person. The truth I like going outside but I like going outside alone.

I went inside the cave and took my things I use for camping. I took my sleeping bag and laid it on the ground and I went in it. What I did know what happened is that I fell asleep

[Time skip to 7:00 pm]

When I woke up it was already night.

"Oh My God!! Dad is gonna kill me if he finds out I'm not at home yet." I said scrambbling.

I returned my things back inside the cave and went out of the forest.

I got to the house still without anyone in it and I felt kinda relieve because there is no one to tell me what to do. I know it sounds selfish but yes I feel that way. I feel like I'm inside a prison because people always tell me what to do.

I went to my bedroom and laid down in my bed thinking everything through. Do I really like Charies? Am I going through something? Where the heck are my parents? Why do I stress on so much things? I'm not even going through puberty yet. God, I'm so miserable.

[Time skip to 9:30 pm]

I didn't eat dinner and I didn't bother to wait for my parents. I just prepared myself for bedtime and went to sleep.
